The molecular nitrogen N (atomic number 7) flowing through multiple parallel metallic ducts is converted to active nitrogen N*, condition allowing the its selective combination with nitric oxide NO sorting out nitrogen dioxide NO 2 . The conversion of nitrogen from nitric status to dioxide status is one fundamental, condition of the preliminary treatment of NOx for having a future step in removing the nitrogen dioxide NO2.
