With the reactant gas mixture of 530 ppm NO, 650 ppm C2H4, 5.8% O2 in N2 and GHSV = 12000 h-1, the pure catalytic, pure plasma-induced (discharges over fused silica pellets) and plasma- catalytic (in the POC reactor) NOx conversion are 39%, 1.5% and 79%, respectively. The in-situ optical emission spectra of the reactive systems imply some short-lived active species formed from plasma-induced and plasma-catalytic processes may be responsible to the observed synergistic effects in this one-stage POC system.展开更多

The results show that WO3 increased the active sites and enhanced the strength of acid, so it was an effective promoter of MnOJTiO2. The NOx conversion on Mn-W/TiO2 ranges from 80.3% to 99.6% between 100 ℃to 350℃ at GHSV=18900 h 1, while N2 product selectivity changes from 100% to 98.7%. In the presence of 0.01% SO2 and 6% H20, NOx conversion maintained 98.5% at 120℃. The influence of more than 0.01% SO2 on the activity of MnOx-WO3/TiO2 will disappear if the temperature rises above 250℃. By means of heating and sweeping with He, the activity of the catalysts can be recovered. At 300℃, NOx conversion yielded 99% with 0.07% SO2 and reached the level of commercial V-W/TiO2 catalysts. The Mn-W/TiO2 catalyst showed excellent performance for SCR of NOx with NH3 in a wider range of temperature with strong tolerance to SO2.展开更多

However, the catalysts used for SCR usually suffer from the problem of sulfur poisoning which seriously limits their practical application. This review summarized sulfur poisoning mechanisms of various SCR deNG catalysts and strategies to reduce deactivation caused by SO2 such as doping metals, controlling the structures and morphologies of the catalysts, and selecting appropriate supports. The methods and procedures of catalysts preparation and the reaction conditions also have effect on SO2-resistance of the catalysts. Several novel catalyst systems that exhibited good SO2 resistance are also introduced. This paper could provide guidance for the development of highly efficient sulfur-tolerant deNOx catalysts.展开更多

Several atoms were chosen as candidates and new catalysts were synthesized by impregnation method. The NOx conversion rate was measured at temperatures between 100 and 400 ℃ and poisoning effect was investigated. The most promising candidate promoter, Se, was excluded because of its high vapor pressure. On the other hand, Sb shows best promoting properties. Sb promoted catalyst reaches the maximum NOx conversion rate at 250 ℃. It also shows considerably enhanced resistance to poisoning of V2O5/TiO2 catalysts by SO2.展开更多
In this work, we studied the catalytic activity of LaMnO3 and(La0.8A0.2)MnO3(A = Sr, K) perovskite catalysts for oxidation of NO and C10H22 and selective reduction of NO by C10H22.

The catalytic per‐formances of these perovskites were compared with that of a 2 wt% Pt/SiO2 catalyst. The La site substitution increased the catalytic properties for NO or C10H22 oxidation compared with the non‐substituted LaMnO3 sample. For the most efficient perovskite catalyst,(La0.8Sr0.2)MnO3, the results showed the presence of two temperature domains for NO adsorption:(1) a domain corre‐sponding to weakly adsorbed NO, desorbing at temperatures lower than 270 °C and(2) a second domain corresponding to NO adsorbed on the surface as nitrate species, desorbing at temperatures higher than 330 °C. For the Sr‐substituted perovskite, the maximum NO2 yield of 80% was observed in the intermediate temperature domain (around 285 °C). In the reactant mixture of NO/C10H22/O2/H2O/He,(La0.8Sr0.2)MnO3 perovskite showed better performance than the 2 wt% Pt/SiO2 catalyst: NO2 yields reaching 50% and 36% at 290 and 370 °C, respectively. This activity improvement was found to be because of atomic scale interactions between the A and B active sites, Sr2+ cation and Mn4+/Mn3+ redox couple. Thus,(La0.8Sr0.2)MnO3 perovskite could be an alternative free noble metal catalyst for exhaust gas after treatment.展开更多

It was found that the TiO\-2 surface properties had strong affect on the SCR activity of V\-2O\-5/TiO\-2 catalysts. The stronger acidic property resulted in the higher exposure of active sites as well as the higher SCR activity.展开更多

In situ diff use refl ectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy and H 2 temperature program reduction were used to study the diff erences in the reaction pathways and Cu active sites over the three kinds of catalysts. Density functional theory was employed to study the eff ect of active sites on the reaction pathway. In situ DRIFTS showed that the reaction pathway on Cu-SSZ-13 1 during NO oxidation was diff erent from that on Cu-SSZ-13 2 and Ce 0.017 -Fe 0.017 /Cu-SSZ-13. The diff erence was that intermediate NO 2 was involved in the selective catalytic reduction reaction on Cu-SSZ-13 1 , whereas NO 2 was not found during the reaction process on Cu-SSZ-13 2 and Ce 0.017 -Fe 0.017 /Cu-SSZ-13. H 2 -TPR studies revealed that the three catalysts had diff erent Cu active sites, which were located in the six-membered ring, eight-membered ring, and CHA cage. On the basis of DFT studies, NO and O 2 were more conducive to form nitrate when the Cu species was on the six- and eight-membered rings;by contrast, NO and O 2 were more conducive to form NO 2 in the cage. These results showed that diff erent preparation methods led to various Cu active sites, and varying Cu active sites could lead to diff erent NO oxidation processes.展开更多

An experimental SCR test apparatus installed on a slipstream of a Coo-per-Bessemer GMV-4, 2-stroke cycle natural gas engine is utilized. Ammonia (NH3) feed rate control algo-rithm development is carried out. Two control algorithms are evaluated: a feed forward control algorithm, using a pre ammonia injection ceramic NOx sensor and a feed forward plus feedback control algorithm, us-ing a pre ammonia injection ceramic NOx sensor and post catalyst ceramic NOx sensor to generate feedback signals. The feed forward algorithm controls to constant user input NH3/NOx molar ratio. The data show the lack of pressure compensation on the ceramic NOx sensors cause errors in feed forward NOx readings, re-sulting in sub optimal ammonia feed. The feedback system minimizes the post catalyst ceramic NOx sensor signal by adjusting the NH3/NOx molar ratio. The NOx sensors respond to ammonia + NOx;therefore, the feed forward plus feedback algorithm minimizes the sum of NOx emissions and ammonia slip. Successful application of the feedback control minimization technique is demonstrated with feedback periods of 15 and 5 minutes with molar ratio step sizes of 5 and 2.5%, respectively.展开更多

The experiments were conducted under the European steady state cycle (ESC) first without any retrofits to get baseline emissions, and then with SCR and CRT respectively, on the same engine. The particulate matter (PM)-phase PAHs were trapped in fiberglass filters, whereas gas-phase PAHs were collected in cartridges, and then analyzed using a gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer (GC-MS). Both PM-phase and gas-phase PAHs were greatly reduced with CRT showing respective CR of 90.7% and above 80%, whereas only gas-phase PAHs were abated in the case of SCR, with CR of above 75%. Lower molecular weight (LMW) PAHs were in abundance, while naphthalene exhibited a maximum relative contribution (RC) to LMW-PAHs for all three cases. Further, the CR of naphthalene and anthracene were increased with increasing catalyst temperature of SCR, most likely due to their conversion to solid particles. Moreover, the Benzo[a]Pyrene equivalent (BaPeq) of PAHs was greatly reduced with CRT, owing to substantial reduction of total PAHs.展开更多

The results showed thatthe maximum NO conversion was 82% on the SnO2/Al2O3 (5%Sn) catalyst, and the presence of H2O and SO2 improved the catalytic activity at low temperature. The catalytic activity of NO2 reduction by propene is much higher than that of NO at the entire temperature range, and the maximum NO2 conversion reached nearly 100% around the temperature 425℃.展开更多
