What Does SNCR Stand For?

SNCR stands for Selective Noncatalytic Reduction

Selective Noncatalytic Reduction (SNCR) is an emissions control technology used primarily in power generation and industrial processes to reduce nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions. This method involves injecting a reducing agent, typically ammonia or urea, into the flue gas at high temperatures without the use of a catalyst. The reducing agent reacts with nitrogen oxides, resulting in their conversion to harmless nitrogen and water vapor. SNCR is recognized for its efficiency and cost-effectiveness, making it a prominent choice for meeting environmental regulations in various sectors.
