An iron compound catalyst for inhibiting the generation of dioxin contains iron oxide particles, iron oxide hydroxide particles or mixed particles having a catalytic activity capable of converting not less than 15% of carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide when 2.8&times;10&minus;4 mol of iron oxide particles obtained by heat-treating the iron compound catalyst in air at a temperature of 800&deg; C. for 15 minutes, are instantaneously contacted with 6.1&times;10&minus;7 mol of carbon monoxide at a temperature of 250&deg; C. at a space velocity (SV) of 42,400 h&minus;1 in an inert gas atmosphere using a pulse catalytic reactor, the iron oxide particles or the iron oxide hydroxide particles have an average particle size of 0.01 to 2.0 &mgr;m, a BET specific surface area of 0.2 to 200 m2/g, a phosphorus content of not more than 0.02% by weight, a sulfur content of not more than 0.6% by weight and a sodium content of not more than 0.5% by weight. This iron compound catalyst enables complete combustion of municipal solid waste and decomposition of dioxin precursors even at a low combustion temperature in intermittently operated incinerators such as mechanical batch incinerators or semi-continuous incinerators, and can inhibit dioxin generation of due to a memory effect upon low-temperature combustion at the start-up or shut-down of the incinerators, without large-scale incinerator renovation or plant and equipment investment.

Iron compound catalyst for inhibiting generation of dioxin

The present invention relates to a process for treating a dioxin-containing exhaust gas which can inhibit the generation of dioxin occurring either in the course of cooling of the exhaust gas between a downstream portion subsequent to a combustion chamber and a dust collector or due to a memory effect upon low-temperature combustion in flues or dust collector at the start-up or shut-down of intermittent operation-type solid waste incinerators, without large-scale incineration facilities or plant renovation and equipment investment, and a composite catalyst composition for inhibiting the generation of dioxin, comprising an iron compound, an acid gas neutralizing agent and optionally an activated carbon.
