Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides can be removed from effluent gases with increased efficiency by blowing contaminated air present in the irradiation room into a stream of the effluent gases before the mixture is delivered to a reaction chamber to be irradiated with an ionizing radiation or ultraviolet light. This provides also a convenient process for purifying the contaminated air containing nitrogen oxides and ozone before release into the atmosphere. Thus, simultaneous purification of industrial effluent gases and contaminated air is advantageously carried out.

A process for removing NOx and SO2 from effluent gases containing NOx and SO2 while simultaneously purifying contaminated air containing NOx and O3 which is produced in an irradiation room comprising: discharging the contaminated air containing NOx and O3 from the irradiation room by an exhaust blower and mixing it with a stream of the effluent gases containing NOx and SO2, irradiating the mixture of the effluent gases containing SO2 and NOx and the contaminated air containing NOx and O3 in a reaction chamber with electron beams from an electron beam accelerator placed near the reaction chamber to give a total dose of about 1 megarad or more, thereby converting substantially all of the gaseous NOx and some SO2 to reaction products in the form of a mist and/or fine solid particles, delivering the irradiated gases with the reaction products thus produced to a collecting means, where said reaction products are separated from the gases, delivering the gases containing the remaining SO2 to means for removing SO2 and removing substantially all of the remaining SO2 and releasing the thus purified effluent gases into the atmosphere. A process for removing NOx and SO2 from effluent gases containing NOx and SO2 while simultaneously purifying contaminated air containing NOx and O3 which is produced in an irradiation room comprising: discharging the contaminated air containing NOx and O3 from the irradiation room by an exhaust blower to blow it directly into a reaction chamber to which a stream of the effluent gases containing NOx and SO2 is delivered, irradiating the mixture of the effluent gases containing SO2 and NOx and the contaminated air containing NOx and O3 in a reaction chamber with electron beams from an electron beam accelerator placed near the reaction chamber to give a total dose of about 1 megarad or more, thereby converting substantially all of the gaseous NOx and some SO2 to reaction products in the form of a mist and/or fine solid particles, delivering the irradiated gases with the reaction products thus produced to a collecting means, where said reaction products are separated from the gases, delivering the gases containing the remaining SO2 to a means for removing SO2 and removing substantially all of the remaining SO2, and releasing the thus purified effluent gases into the atmosphere.
