Abstract
An ammonia gas to be determined, and an oxidative gas containing nitrogen oxides in moles more than those of the ammonia are brought into contact with an analytical catalyst capable of forming nitrogen and water from ammonia and nitrogen oxides. Concentrations of nitrogen oxides of the gas before and after the contact with the analytical catalyst are determined, and an ammonia concentration of the gas is determined by converting the difference between the concentrations of nitrogen oxides to the ammonia concentration by calculation.
