However, the application of diesel engines is also facing a serious problem;that is, the emission of nitrogen oxides and particulate matter is serious. For marine diesel engine emission requirements, MARPOL Convention Annex VI imposes strict restrictions on the emission of atmospheric pollutants. The limit emission of nitrogen oxides in the Tier III emission standards mandated by IMO is 3.4 g/kWh. Therefore, in order to meet the requirements of international conventions and countries and regions, it is necessary to control the emissions of diesel engines. The NOx in the exhaust gas is mostly a thermal type of nitrogen oxide which is produced under high temperature and high pressure conditions formed during compression and combustion strokes. The diesel engine relies on the compression energy of the mixture to ignite, and the good injection atomization effect is not achieved. The distribution of the detonation point is not uniform, and local high temperature points are generated in some areas, which increases the NOx formation. The main means of reducing NOx emissions are organic internal control and post-treatment. However, the use of internal control technology to reduce the internal temperature of the machine will deteriorate the fuel combustion conditions, so that the fuel cannot be completely burned, and the emissions of incomplete combustion products such as PM and CO increase. It is difficult to achieve NOx reduction by simply relying on the internal control technology, so it is necessary to use post-processing technology. The combined use of different emission reduction technologies is also a hot topic in emissions control research. The post-treatment methods for NOx emission reduction include direct catalytic decomposition, selective non-catalytic reduction, selective catalytic reduction, lean-burn adsorption catalytic reduction, and low-temperature plasma assisted technology. The current research and application schemes in the industry are SCR selectivity. Catalytic reduction and LNT lean combustion adsorption reduction. In this paper, the partial replacement of Ce by La is carried out to modify the Ce/Zr composite oxide. The mass fraction of La2O3 in the prepared La/Ce/Zr composite oxide was 5%, and the physicochemical properties of La/Ce/Zr composite oxide powder were analyzed by ICP, OSC, SEM and TPR techniques. The experiment found that: 1) La can refine the grain and inhibit the grain growth, so that the powder obtains a higher specific surface area and a smaller particle size distribution. 2) The addition of La reduces the sintering of cerium-zirconium and improves the heat aging resistance of the catalyst under the inhibition of high temperature. 3) After doping La, it enhances the migration of surface lattice oxygen and enhances the oxygen storage capacity;the addition of La enhances the NO adsorption capacity of cerium-zirconium and improves the catalytic activity of the catalyst. The light-off temperature and the highest activity temperature of PM decrease, and the reduction rate of No is 19.2%.展开更多

The result indicates that the mass gain during static oxidation of the material under normal atmosphere follows the parabolic law. Oxide increases with increasing temperature and prolonging time. It has good oxidation resistance. The product of oxidation of the material is TiO2. Therefore, the volume of the material expands. The oxide film is destroyed because residual stress inside the oxide film is released. Proper oxidation is beneficial to the improvement of bending strength of Al2O3-30%TiCN-0.2%Y2O3 composite. The strength increase is up to 4.5%.展开更多

The results indicated that incorporation of appropriate amounts of Ce into the catalyst was beneficial to the formation of sole tetragonal ZrO2 and effectively prevented from the formation of monoclinic ZrO〉 and restrained the loss of sulfated species. XRD revealed the presence of tetragonal Ce0.16Zr0.84O2phase in the case of S2O8^2-/ZrO2-CeO2 calcined above 500 ℃. Catalytic activities of S2O8^2-/ZrO2-CeO2 for the esterification of lactic acid with n-butanol was studied. The results showed that the optimum conditions were as follows： calcination temperature of the catalyst 600 ℃, n（lactic acid）：n（n-butyl alcohol）=1.0：3.0, w（S2O8^2-/ZrO2- CeO2）=12.0%, reaction temperature 145 ℃, and reaction time 2 h.

The study shows that thermal shock resistance of the material is determined by its microstructure and reinforced mechanism. According to SEM and calculation of thermal shock, the fractured surface of Al2O3-30%TiCN-0.2%Y2O3 composite is undulate. The residual strength of Al2O3-30%TiCN-0.2%Y2O3 is higher than Al2O3-30%TiCN at 200～800 ℃ after thermal shock. Cracks initiation resistance (R′)and cracks propagation resistance (R″″)of Al2O3-30%TiCN-0.2%Y2O3 composite increases 12% and 5% respectively compared with that of Al2O3-30%TiCN. It matches with experimental results. The addition of Y2O3 forms YAG that inhibits crystal growth, and increases fracture stress, fracture toughness, cracks initiation resistance and cracks propagation resistance. Therefore, thermal shock resistance increases. The fracture work of Al2O3-30%TiCN and Al2O3-30%TiCN-0.2%Y2O3 composites are 132 and 148 J·m-2 respectively.展开更多

The effects of CuO on NO+CO reaction were investigated, and the structure and reductive properties of various CuO/Ce x Ti 1- x O 2 were characterized by the methodologies of BET, TPR and XRD. The results show that different Ce/Ti mole ratios and calcination temperatures induce changes of structure and reductive properties of the Ce x Ti 1- x O 2 mixed oxides. When x =0.1～0.5, amorphous CeTi 2O 6 phase mainly forms at 650 ℃ compared to the formation of CeTi 2O 6 which crystallizes at 800 ℃. When x >0.6, some TiO 2 enters the CeO 2 lattice and a CeO 2 TiO 2 solid solution is formed. The activity of 6%CuO/Ce x Ti 1- x O 2 calcined at 650 ℃ is largely affected by the x values, which is the highest when x =0.3, 0.4 and 0.9. The NO conversion reaches 70% at a reaction temperature of 150 ℃. By comparison, the x values have little effect on the activity of 6%CuO/Ce x Ti 1- x O 2 calcined at 800 ℃ . There are strong interactions between CuO and CeTi 2O 6, i.e., formation of the CeTi 2O 6 phase shifts the CuO reduction peak temperature from 380 to 200 ℃, and CuO, in turn, shifts the CeTi 2O 6 reduction peak temperature from 600 to 300 ℃.展开更多

For this investigation of copper-based rare earth composite metal materials, aqueous solutions containing 400 mg/L of ammonia were oxidized in a batch-bed reac-tor with a catalyst prepared by the co-precipitation of copper nitrate, lanthanum nitrate and cerium nitrate. Barely any of the dissolved ammo-nia was removed by wet oxidation without a catalyst, but about 88% of the ammonia was reduced during wet oxidation over the catalysts at 423 K with an oxygen partial pressure of 4.0 MPa. The catalytic redox behavior was determined by cyclic voltammetry （CV）. Furthermore, the catalysts were characterized using thermogravimetric analyzer （TGA） and scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy （SEM-EDX）, which showed that the catalytic behavior was related to the metal oxide properties of the catalyst. In addition, the copper-lanthanum-cerium composite-induced cytotoxicity in the human lung MRC-5 cell line was tested, and the percentage cell survival was determined by 3-（4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl）-5-（3-carboxymethoxyphenyl）-2-（4-sulfophenyl）-2H-tetra-zolium （MTS） analysis in vitro. No ap-parent cytotoxicity was observed when the human lung cells were exposed to the copper-lanthanum-cerium composite.展开更多

Composite catalysts H3PW12O40/La-TiO2 with different loading levels were synthesized using impregnation method. The prepared samples were charac- terized by foutler transform infrared spectroscopy （FT-IR）, X-ray diffraction （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, UV vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy （DRS） and nitrogen adsorption-desorption analysis. The Keggin structure of H3PWI2040 （HPW） re- mained intact on the surface of the composites, they had relatively uniform spherical grains of diameter less than 20 nm. The visible light activity of prepared composites were improved by loading HPW and doping La. The prepared composites were used as photo- catalysts in degradation of pesticide imidacloprid. Results revealed that 20%H3PWL204o/0.3%La-TiO2 possessed the best photocata- lyric activity. Thus, the degradation conversion of imidacloprid reached 98.17% after 60 rain irradiation when 20%H3PW12O4/0.3% La-TiO2 was used as catalysts. The degradation of imidacloprid corresponded with first-order kinetic reaction, and the half life of the degradation of imidacloprid was 9.35 min in the optimal conditions.展开更多

BET surface areas analysis indicated that an increase of the dopant Tb content from x = 0.05 to x = 0.15 favors an increase of surface area from 66.8 to 80.4 m^2· g^-1 compared with the undoped sample Ce0 .6oZr0.40O2 65.1 m^2·g^- 1 after calcination at 650℃. Transmission electron microscopy （TEM） observation indicated that the doped samples have a higher thermal stability. The XRD and Raman spectra confirmed that the Ce0.6Zr0.4-xTbxO2-y cubic solid solution is formed. XPS analysis revealed that Ce and Tb mainly existed in the form of Ce^4＋ and Tb^3 ＋ , and Zr existed in the form of Zr^4＋ on the surface of the samples. The doped samples were homogenous in composition ; the introduction of Tb into the CeO2-ZrO2 promoters resuited in the formation of a solid solution, and the concentration of surface lattice oxygen was increased.展开更多

Furthermore,three proportions composites catalysts of La2 MoO@MWCNTs based on La2 MoOand multiwall carbon nanotubes(MWCNTs) were prepared and characterized as Ptfree catalyst for CE in dye-sensitized solar cells(DSSCs). The morphology and structure of La2 MoO@MWCNTs composites were determined by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscope and X-ray diffraction. The electrochemical performance of La2 MoO@MWCNTs composite catalysts for CEs was determined by photocurrent-voltage measurements, cyclic voltammetry,electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and Tafel polarization. The power conversion efficiencies of4.68%, 4.87% and 5.06% are obtained for La2 MoO:MWCNTs with the mass ratios of 5:1, 3:1 and 1:1 towards the reduction of I~-to I~-under the same conditions,respectively,which are superior to those of MWCNTs(3,94%) and La2 MoO(1.71%) electrodes. The experimental results reveal that the presence of MWCNTs results in an augmented active catalytic surface area and enhanced charge transfer from CE to the electrolyte.展开更多
