The tightening of emission standards mandates NOx and particulate emissions to be reduced by more than 90 percent by 2010 in Europe, United States, and Japan. Selective Catalyst Reduction (SCR) using Urea as the NOx reducing agent is fast becoming the preferred technology. This paper provides an overview of the state of art on the topic. It also examines the use of urea vapor instead of spraying an aqueous mixture and the impact of different spraying strategies on mixing. It is shown that by injecting urea vapor opposite to direction of the exhaust gas flow, better mixing with the exhaust and thus better conversion can be achieved as compared with injecting the urea vapor parallel to the gas. The increase in pressure drop does not appear significant.
