Method and apparatus for processing exhaust gas

An apparatus of an exhaust gas which is characterized by comprising:

• a wet reactor having an oxidation reaction area in a lower part and a reduction reaction area in an upper part;
• a mixed aqueous solution reservoir unit provided under the oxidation reaction area in the wet reactor;
• an atmospheric pressure low-temperature nonequilibrium discharge plasma reaction unit for generating a radical gas from air;
• a radical gas introducing line for introducing the radical gas generated in the plasma reaction unit to the oxidation reaction area;
• an exhaust gas introducing line for introducing an exhaust gas containing nitrogen oxide to the oxidation reaction area separately from the radical gas introducing line;
• a mixed aqueous solution circulation line for circulating a mixed aqueous solution consisting of a reducing agent aqueous solution and an alkaline aqueous solution and introducing the mixed aqueous solution into the reduction reaction area from the mixed aqueous solution reservoir;
• a pH meter and an ORP meter provided in a route which is branched from the mixed aqueous solution circulation line and leads to the mixed aqueous solution reservoir unit;
• and
• a reducing agent aqueous solution supplying line coming from a reducing agent aqueous solution tank and an alkaline aqueous solution supplying line coming from an alkaline aqueous solution tank, connected to the route on the downstream side of the pH meter and the ORP meter, respectively;
• and
• a mixed aqueous solution supply line branched from the mixed aqueous solution circulation line, passing through the ORP meter and the pH meter, joining on the downstream side of the reducing agent aqueous solution supplying line and the alkaline aqueous solution supplying line, and leading to the reservoir unit,
• wherein the reducing agent aqueous solution and the alkaline aqueous solution are supplied, on the basis of the measured pH and ORP values of the circulating mixed aqueous solution, into the mixed aqueous solution reservoir unit from the aqueous solution supplying line so that the pH value and the ORP value of the mixed aqueous solution consisting of the reducing agent aqueous solution and the alkaline aqueous solution to be introduced into the reduction reaction area fall within predetermined ranges.
