ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a process for cleaning a gas containing a nitrogen fluoride especially nitrogen trifluoride as the harmful component which comprises bringing the gas into contact with a cleaning agent comprising zirconium or a zirconium-based alloy such as Zr-Fe, Zr-Cu, Zr-Ni, Zr-Al, Zr-Mg, Zr-Ca, Zr-Zn, Zr-La and Zr-Ce to remove the harmful component at 100.degree. to 800.degree. C., especially 150.degree. to 500.degree. C. The process is capable of efficiently removing nitrogen fluoride, especially nitrogen trifluoride at a relatively low temperature without generating a harmful byproduct such as nitrogen oxide, and thus exhibits excellent effect on the cleaning of exhaust gas from semiconductor manufacturing process, etc.
