The catalysts were characterized by means of Nz-BET, XRD and H2-TPR techniques. It was found that for those Sn rich sam- pies such as SnCe91 and SnCe73, Ce cations were doped into the matrix of tetragonal rutile SnO2 to form SnO2-based solid solution. As a consequence, the oxidation activity as well as the thermal stability was significantly improved compared with pure SnO2. In contrast, for Ce rich samples such as SnCel9, SnCe37 and SnCe55, though the thermal stability was improved, the activity was worse than SnO2, due to the presence of much less amount of active oxygen species. Co-precipitation was found to be the best method to prepare Sn-Ce binary catalysts among all of the methods tried in this study.展开更多

Zirconium dioxide (ZrOz) ce- ramic foams were placed into the combustion zone of a regenerative thermal oxidizer (RTO). Different performance characteris- tics of the RTO and PRTO systems, including pressure drop, temperature distribution, emissions, and energy efficiency, were evaluated to study the effects of the porous inserts on non-premixed CH4 combustion. It was found that the PRTO system achieved a significant reduction in the NOx emission level and a fuel saving of approximately 30% compared to the RTO system. It is most suitable for a lean combustion process at an equivalence ratio 〈0.4 with NOx and CO emission levels within 0.002%~).003% and 0.001%q3.002%, respectively.展开更多
