Patent Issued to R.F. MacDonald Co. for Safest NOx Emissions Reduction Technology with SCR

Retrieved on: 
Wednesday, March 10, 2021

MacDonald Co. for inventing a "process for direct urea injection with selective catalytic reduction (SCR) for NOx reduction in hot gas streams and related systems and assemblies."

Key Points: 
  • MacDonald Co. for inventing a "process for direct urea injection with selective catalytic reduction (SCR) for NOx reduction in hot gas streams and related systems and assemblies."
