A flow duct conducts a gaseous second fluid medium in a given flow direction and has a given cross-sectional area and a given hydraulic diameter. A combined feed and mixing device for introducing a first fluid medium into the second fluid medium in the flow duct and for mixing the fluid media includes at least one tube conducting the first fluid medium and having from 0.05 to 10 feed orifices per m.sup.2 of the given cross-sectional area. A mixing insert disposed downstream of the at least one feed orifice in the given flow direction is spaced apart from the feed orifices by a distance of from 0.05 to 3 times the given hydraulic diameter. The mixing insert has mixing elements being small relative to the given hydraulic diameter and being disposed in mutually parallel rows in a plane oriented at an angle to the given flow direction. The mixing elements of each of the rows are inclined relative to a plane in the same direction to one another and in opposite direction to the mixing elements of each adjacent row.

Combined feed and mixing device

A Catalyst for reducing the nitrogen oxides in flue gases by a reducing agent and a catalytically active composition are described. The catalyst increases resistance to catalyst poisons such as arsenic trioxide. The composition contains 60-90% by weight of titanium, 10-30% by weight of molybdenum, and 0.2-10% by weight of vanadium, as their respective oxides. A very pure titanium dioxide having less than 500 ppm of calcium and less than 100 ppm of iron, being 60% in the anastase modification. It has a mean particle size of 10 to 100 nm, a mean pore radius of 10 to 30 nm and a BET surface of 10 to 80 m.sup.2 per gram. The catalyst is prepared by wet-grinding a suspension of the titanium dioxide with the vanadium pentoxide and molybdenum trioxide in stated proportions. The suspension is then dried and precalcined for several hours at 450.degree. to 550.degree. C. The precalcined material is comminuted to diameters smaller than 180 .mu.m. The pulverized material is then mixed with water and coated onto a metal substrate, dried and then calcined for several hours at 450.degree. to 550.degree. C.

Process for producing a catalyst for reducing nitrogen oxides in flue

Catalytic material for reducing nitrous oxides in flue gases in the presence of ammonia in which titanium oxide is used as the starting material and the latter is milled together with vanadium oxide and one or more oxides of the elements tungsten, molybdenum, phosphorus, chromium, copper, iron, uranium and is thereafter subjected to at least one thermal treatment. Tungsten and molybdenum are substituted here entirely or partially by phosphorus in the form of its oxides or phosphates.
