NOX emissions during the combustion of coal would cause serious pollution to the atmosphere. It is particularly important to reduce NOX pollution during the combustion process by replacing loose coal with clean coke. The use of clean coke for civil is one of the main ways to reduce NOX emissions, which is mainly formed by the mixed dry distillation of metal additives and coal. The coke samples with different proportions of metal additives were prepared by physical mixing method, and the NOX emission law of clean coke at different temperatures was studied in a high-temperature tube furnace reactor. The results show that the addition of Fe alone has a significant effect on the control of NOX emissions, and the co-doping with Ce can further promote the reduction of NOX, so as to achieve the final low emission of NOX. While the reaction temperature is 1000 ℃ and the addition ratio is 2:1, the NOX reduction rate is 73%. It has important practical value and scientific significance for the clean utilization of coal and the treatment of NOX in the atmosphere.
