NOxtároló

NOxtároló refers to a storage system or concept related to nitrogen oxides (NOx). Nitrogen oxides are a group of gases that are harmful to human health and the environment, contributing to smog, acid rain, and respiratory problems. In industrial processes and combustion engines, NOx is produced as a byproduct. NOxtároló can refer to several things, including methods for capturing and storing NOx emissions from sources like power plants or vehicles, or technologies designed to reduce the amount of NOx produced in the first place.

These storage or reduction systems often involve chemical processes. For example, selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems use a catalyst and a reducing agent, typically ammonia or urea, to convert NOx into harmless nitrogen gas and water. The captured NOx might be stored temporarily before being processed or directly converted. In other contexts, NOxtároló could relate to the geological storage of captured carbon dioxide (CO2) which is often captured alongside NOx in industrial emissions, though the term specifically emphasizes the NOx component.

The development of effective NOxtároló technologies is crucial for meeting environmental regulations and improving air quality. Research continues to focus on increasing the efficiency, reducing the cost, and minimizing the energy consumption of these storage and abatement systems. The ultimate goal is to prevent or mitigate the release of harmful NOx into the atmosphere.
