A process is disclosed for treating carbonaceous catalyst with a gaseous halogen or a gaseous halogen compound to increase the catalytic activity and prolong the useful life of the catalyst. The treatment of the catalyst is conducted at temperatures above about 150 degrees C., preferably with the use of an inert gas, which inert gas is flowed through the carbonaceous material, and which inert gas carries the gaseous halogen or the gaseous halogen compound to the carbonaceous material.

Process for manufacturing a carbonaceous catalyst for the reduction of

Method and apparatus for the removal of sulfur oxides and nitrogen oxides from exhaust gas with the addition of gaseous ammonia at temperatures between 110.degree. and 180.degree. C. The exhaust gas is led across carbon-containing adsorption agent flowing downwardly within a reactor, a portion of sulfur oxide initially being adsorptively removed in a upper part of a travelling bed, with nitrogen oxide catalytically reduced to nitrogen as well as further sulfur oxide being separated in a lower part of the travelling bed. Unloaded adsorption agent is delivered to the upper bed part, partially loaded adsorption agent is removed from that bed part and delivered to the lower bed part without mingling, loaded adsorption agent is removed from the lower bed part and led to a regeneration, after which it is delivered to the upper bed part.
