High-efficiency SCR catalysts that could perform at low temperatures are essential to denitration. In this work, a series of bimetallic CeCu-SAPO-34 molecular sieves were synthesized by one-step hydrothermal method. The Ce Cu-SAPO-34 maintained good crystallinity and a regular hexahedron appearance of Cu-SAPO-34 after introducing Ce species, while exhibiting a higher specific surface area and pore volume. The as-prepared CeCu-SAPO-34 with 0.02%(mass) Ce constituent exhibited the best catalytic activity below 300℃ and a maximum NO_(x) conversion of 99% was attained;the NO_(x) removal rates of more than 68% and 94% were achieved at 150℃ and 200℃, respectively. And the introduction of cerium species in Cu-SAPO-34 improves the low-temperature hydrothermal stability of the catalyst towards NH_(3)-SCR reaction. Additionally, the introduced Ce species could enhance the formation of abundant weak Br?nsted acid centers and promote the synergistic effect between CuO grains and isolated Cu^(2+) to enhance the redox cycle, which benefit the NH_(3)-SCR reaction.This work provides a facile synthesis method of high-efficiency SCR denitration catalysts towards diesel vehicles exhaust treatment under low temperature.展开更多
This work aims to study the improvement effect of Sm on Mn-based catalysts for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with NH3.A series of Sm_(x)Mn_(0.3-x)-xTi catalysts (x=0,0.1,0.15,0.2,and 0.3) were prepared by ...This work aims to study the improvement effect of Sm on Mn-based catalysts for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with NH3.A series of Sm_(x)Mn_(0.3-x)-xTi catalysts (x=0,0.1,0.15,0.2,and 0.3) were prepared by co-precipitation.Activity tests indicated that the Sm_(0.15)Mn_(0.15)Ti catalyst showed superior performances,with a NO conversion of 100%and N_(2)selectivity above 87%at 180–300℃.The characterizations showed that Sm doping suppressed the crystallization of TiO_(2)and Mn2O3phases and increased the specific surface area and acidity.In particular,the surface area increased from 152.2 m^(2)·g^(-1)for Mn0.3Ti to 241.7 m^(2)·g^(-1)for Sm_(0.15)Mn_(0.15)Ti.These effects contributed to the high catalytic activity.The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results indicated that the relative atomic ratios of Sm^(3+)/Sm and Oβ/O of Sm_(0.15)Mn_(0.15)Ti were 76.77at%and 44.11at%,respectively.The presence of Sm contributed to an increase in surface-absorbed oxygen (Oβ) and a decrease in Mn^(4+)surface concentration,which improved the catalytic activity.In the results of hydrogen temperature-programmed reduction(H_(2)-TPR),the presence of Sm induced a higher reduction temperature and lower H_(2)consumption (0.3 mmol·g^(-1)) for the Sm_(0.15)Mn_(0.15)Ti catalyst compared to the Mn0.3Ti catalyst.The decrease in Mn^(4+)weakened the redox property of the catalysts and increased the N_(2)selectivity by suppressing N_(2)O formation from NH3oxidation and the nonselective catalytic reduction reaction.The in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectra (DRIFTs) revealed that NH3-SCR of NO over the Sm_(0.15)Mn_(0.15)Ti catalyst mainly followed the Eley–Rideal mechanism.Sm doping increased surface-absorbed oxygen and weakened the redox property to improve the NO conversion and N_(2)selectivity of the Sm_(0.15)Mn_(0.15)Ti catalyst.展开更多

Various amounts of KNO3 were impregnated on the catalyst surface to investigate the effects of Zr addition on the K+‐poisoning resistance of the CeTiOx catalyst. The NH3‐SCR performance of the catalysts showed that the NOx removal activity of the Zr‐modified catalyst after poisoning was better than that of the CeTiOx catalyst. Brunau‐er‐Emmett‐Teller data indicated that the Zr‐containing catalyst had a larger specific surface area and pore volume both before and after K+poisoning. X‐ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy showed that Zr doping inhibited anatase TiO2 crystal grain growth, i.e., the molten salt flux effect caused by the loaded KNO3 was inhibited. The Ce 3d X‐ray photoelectron spectra showed that the Ce3+/Ce4+ratio of CeZrTiOx decreased more slowly than that of CeTiOx with increasing K+loading, indicating that Zr addition preserved more crystal defects and oxygen vacancies; this improved the catalytic performance. The acidity was a key factor in the NH3‐SCR performance; the temperature‐programmed desorption of NH3 results showed that Zr doping inhibited the decrease in the surface acidity. The results suggest that Zr improved the K+‐poisoning resistance of the CeTiOx catalyst.展开更多

Acco...The structure and catalytic desulfurization characteristics of CeO2-TiO2 mixed oxides were investigated by means ofX-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and catalytic activity tests. According to the results, a CeO2-TiO2solid solution is formed when the mole ratio of cerium to titanium n(Ce):n(Ti) is 5:5 or greater, and the most suitable n(Ce):n(Ti) isdetermined as 7:3, over which the conversion rate of SO2 and the yield of sulfur at 500℃ reach 93% and 99%, respectively.According to the activity testing curve, Ce0.7Ti0.3O2 (n(Ce):n(Ti)=7:3) without any pretreatment can be gradually activated by reagentgas after about 10 min, and reaches a steady activation status 60 min later. The XPS results of Ce0.7Ti0.3O2 after different time ofSO2+CO reaction show that CeO2 is the active component that offers the redox couple Ce4+/Ce3+ and the labile oxygen vacancies, andTiO2 only functions as a catalyst structure stabilizer during the catalytic reaction process. After 48 h of catalytic reaction at 500℃,Ce0.7Ti0.3O2 still maintains a stable structure without being vulcanized, demonstrating its good anti-sulfur poisoning performance.展开更多

The effects of Fe and Mn on NO conversion and the deactivation of the catalysts were studied. N2 adsorption‐desorption, X‐ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, H2 temperature‐programmed reduction, NH3 temperature‐programmed desorption, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), thermal gravimetric analysis and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were used to character‐ize the catalysts. The 8Fe‐8Mn/Al2O3 catalyst gave 99%of NO conversion at 150?? and more than 92.6%NO conversion was obtained in a wide low temperature range of 90–210??. XPS analysis demonstrated that the Fe3+was the main iron valence state on the catalyst surface and the addition of Mn increased the accumulation of Fe on the surface. The higher specific surface area, enhanced dispersion of amorphous Fe and Mn, improved reduction properties and surface acidity, lower binding energy, higher Mn4+/Mn3+ratio and more adsorbed oxygen species resulted in higher NO conversion for the 8Fe‐8Mn/Al2O3 catalyst. In addition, the SCR activity of the 8Fe‐8Mn/Al2O3 cata‐lyst was only slightly decreased in the presence of H2O and SO2, which indicated that the catalyst had better tolerance to H2O and SO2. The reaction temperature was crucial for the SO2 resistance of catalyst and the decrease of catalytic activity caused by SO2 was mainly due to the sulfate salts formed on the catalyst.展开更多

For a particular mass of Fe salt precursor, the concentration of the metal salt solution during ion exchange influenced the ion exchange capacity of Fe, and resulted in different activities of the Fe-Beta catalyst. Fe-Beta catalysts with the Fe contents of (2.6, 6.3 and 9) wt% were synthesized using different amounts of 0.02 mol/L Fe salt solution. These catalysts were studied by various characterization techniques and their NH3-SCR activities were evaluated. The Fe-Beta catalyst with the Fe content of 6.3 wt% exhibited the highest activity, with a temperature range of 202-616℃ where the NOx conversion was 〉 80%. The Fe content in Beta zeolite did not influence the structure of Beta zeolite and valence state of Fe. Compared with the Fe-Beta catalysts with low Fe content (2.6 wt%), Fe-Beta catalysts with 6.3 wt% Fe content possessed more isolated Fe3. active sites which led to its higher NH3-SCR activity. A high capacity for NH3 and NO adsorption, and a high activity for NO oxidation also contributed to the high NH3-SCR activity of the Fe-Beta catalyst with 6.3 wt%. However, when the Fe content was further increased to 9.0 wt%, the amount of FexOy nanoparticles increased while the amount of isolated Fe3+ active sites was unchanged, which promoted NH3 oxidation and decreased the NH3-SCR activity at high temperature.展开更多

The physicochemical properties of the catalysts were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, N2 adsorption‐desorption measurements, X‐ray diffraction, 27 Al magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance, diffuse reflectance ultraviolet‐visible spectroscopy, inductively coupled plasma‐atomic emission spectroscopy, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, temperature‐programmed reduction measurements, and electron paramagnetic resonance analysis. The formation of micro‐mesopores in the Cu‐SAPO‐34 catalysts decreases diffusion resistance and greatly improves the accessibility of reactants to catalytic active sites. The main active sites for NH3‐SCR reaction are the isolated Cu^2+ species displaced into the ellipsoidal cavity of the Cu‐SAPO‐34 catalysts.展开更多

Compared to the traditional V2O5/TiO2 and V2O5-MoO3/TiO2 catalysts, the V2O5/TiO2-PILC catalyst exhibited a higher activity and better SO2 and H2O resistance in the NH3-SCR reaction. Characterization using TPD, in situ DRIFT and XPS showed that surface sulfate and/or sulfite species and ionic SO4^(2-)species were formed on the catalyst in the presence of SO2. The ionic SO4^(2-) species on the catalyst surface was one reason for deactivation of the catalyst in SCR. The formation of the ionic SO4^(2-) species was correlated with the amount of surface adsorbed oxygen species. Less adsorbed oxygen species gave less ionic SO4^(2-) species on the catalyst.展开更多

Separate and simultaneous removal of SO2 and NO over LaEO3/γ-Al2O3, CeOE/γ-Al2O3, CeOE-LaEO3/γ-Al2O3 were investigated. The phase characteristics of catalysts were also analyzed by X-ray diffraction. The result shows that the conversions of SO2 and NO are above 98 % over CeOE/γ-Al2O3 and CeOE-LaEO3/γ-Al2O3. After SO2 is added in the NO-CO-N2 system (NO :SO2 = 1:2 - 1 : 3), the conversions of SO2 and NO are both above 98%. Furthermore, it is found that CeO2-La2O3 with various ratios has different activity for the simultaneous reduction of SO2 and NO.展开更多

The results indicate that Pt/Ce0.67Zr0.33O2 shows high activity and both NO and CH4 can be converted completely at 450℃. Meanwhile, NO and CH4 can be converted completely when there exists excess oxygen. The Pt/Ce0.67Zr0.33O2 catalyst were further investigated by using methane as reducing agent to SCR NO in a novel equipment which combined the CH4 selective catalytic reduction of NO with methane combustion. The result shows that the catalyst is high active and the novel equipment is very effective. The conversion of NO is above 92% under the conditions used in this work. The prepared burner and catalysts have great potential for application.展开更多

It was found that with the addition of Cr, more NO could be removed in the low-temperature window (below 120 ℃). Among the tested catalysts, Mn-Fe- Cr (2 : 2 : 1) catalyst exhibited the best catalytic performance at 80 ℃ with the NO conversion higher than 90%. The combination of the reaction and characterization results indicated that (1) the strong interaction among tertiary metal oxides existed in the catalysts when Cr was appropriately added, which made the active components better dispersed with less agglomeration and sintering and the largest BET specific surface area could be obtained; (2) Cr improved the low-temperature reducibility of the catalyst and promoted the formation of the active intermediate (-NH3+), which favored the low-temperature SCR reaction.展开更多

The kinetics of the SCR reaction in the presence of O2 was studied in this work. The results showed that the observed reaction orders were 0.74-0.99, 0.01-0.13, and 0 for NO, O2 and NH3 at 350-450℃, respectively. And the apparent activation energy of the SCR was 65 kJ/mol on the Fe-Mo/ZSM-5 catalyst. The SCR mechanism was also deduced. Adsorbed NO species can react directly with adsorbed ammonia species on the active sites to form N2 and H2O. Gaseous O2 might serve as a reoxidizing agent for the active sites that have undergone reduction in the SCR process. It is also important to note that a certain amount of NO was decomposed directly over the Fe-Mo/ZSM-5 catalyst in the absence of NH3.展开更多

In the one case, DBD was created directly in the exhaust gas (direct application), and in the an other case, ozone produced by DBD was injected into the exhaust gas (indirect application). A comparative study between such direct and indirect applications of DBD plasma was made in terms of the NOx removal efficiency and the energy consumption. The NO2 content in the exhaust gas was changed by the voltage applied to the DBD device (for direct application) or by the amount of ozone added to the exhaust gas (for indirect application). In both cases, NO was easily oxidized to NO2, and the change in NO2 content largely affected the NOx removal performance of the catalytic reactor placed downstream, where both NO and NO2 were reduced to N2 in the presence of ammonia as the reducing agent. The experiments were primarily concerned with the effect of reaction temperature on the catalytic NOx reduction at various NO2 contents. The direct and indirect applications of DBD were found to remarkably improve the catalytic NOx reduction, especially at low temperatures.展开更多

Catalyst CuCoOx/TiO2 with Cu/Co molar ratio of 1/2, CuCo total loading of 30% at the calcination temperature of 350℃ formed CuCo204 spinel and had the highest activity. NO conversion reached 98.9% at 200℃. Mechanism of the reduction was also investigated, N20 was mainly yielded below 100℃, while N2 was produced instead at higher temperature. O2 was supposed to accelerate the reaction between NOx and CO for its oxidation of NO to give more easily reduced NO2, but the oxidation of CO by O2 to CO2 decreased the speed of the reaction greatly. Either SO2 or H20 had no adverse impact on the activity of NO reduction; however, in the presence of both SO2 and H20, the catalyst deactivated quickly.展开更多

文摘Activated red mud(RM)has been proved to be a promising base material for the selective catalysis reduction(SCR)of NOx.The inherent low reducibility and acidity limited its low-temperature activity.In this work,molybdenum oxide,tungsten oxide,and cerium oxide were used to reconfigure the redox sites and acid sites of red mud based catalyst.When activated red mud was reconfigured by cerium-tungsten oxide(Ce-W@RM),the NOx conversion kept above 90%at 219-480℃.The existence of Ce^(3+)/Ce^(4+) redox electron pairs provided more surface adsorbed oxygen(O_(α)) and served as a redox cycle.Positive interactions between Ce,W species and Fe oxide in red mud occurred,which led to the formation of unsaturated chemical bond and promoted the activation of adsorbed NH_(3) species.WO_(3) and Ce_(2)(WO_(4))_(3)(formed by solid-state reaction between Ce and W species)could provide more Brønsted acid sites(W-O modes of WO_(3),W=O or W-O-W modes of Ce_(2)(WO_(4))_(3)).CeO_(2) species could provide more Lewis acid sites.The Langmuir-Hinshelwood(L-H)routes and Eley-Rideal(E-R)routes occurred in the low-temperature SCR reaction on the Ce-W@RM surface.NH_(4)^(+) species on Brønsted acid sites,NH_(3) species on Lewis acid sites,bidentate nitrate and bridging nitrate species were key active intermediates species.

文摘NH_(3) selective catalytic reduction(SCR) has been widely recognized as a promising technique for reducing nitrogen oxides from diesel vehicle exhausts. High-efficiency SCR catalysts that could perform at low temperatures are essential to denitration. In this work, a series of bimetallic CeCu-SAPO-34 molecular sieves were synthesized by one-step hydrothermal method. The Ce Cu-SAPO-34 maintained good crystallinity and a regular hexahedron appearance of Cu-SAPO-34 after introducing Ce species, while exhibiting a higher specific surface area and pore volume. The as-prepared CeCu-SAPO-34 with 0.02%(mass) Ce constituent exhibited the best catalytic activity below 300℃ and a maximum NO_(x) conversion of 99% was attained;the NO_(x) removal rates of more than 68% and 94% were achieved at 150℃ and 200℃, respectively. And the introduction of cerium species in Cu-SAPO-34 improves the low-temperature hydrothermal stability of the catalyst towards NH_(3)-SCR reaction. Additionally, the introduced Ce species could enhance the formation of abundant weak Br?nsted acid centers and promote the synergistic effect between CuO grains and isolated Cu^(2+) to enhance the redox cycle, which benefit the NH_(3)-SCR reaction.This work provides a facile synthesis method of high-efficiency SCR denitration catalysts towards diesel vehicles exhaust treatment under low temperature.

文摘This work aims to study the improvement effect of Sm on Mn-based catalysts for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with NH3.A series of Sm_(x)Mn_(0.3-x)-xTi catalysts (x=0,0.1,0.15,0.2,and 0.3) were prepared by co-precipitation.Activity tests indicated that the Sm_(0.15)Mn_(0.15)Ti catalyst showed superior performances,with a NO conversion of 100%and N_(2)selectivity above 87%at 180–300℃.The characterizations showed that Sm doping suppressed the crystallization of TiO_(2)and Mn2O3phases and increased the specific surface area and acidity.In particular,the surface area increased from 152.2 m^(2)·g^(-1)for Mn0.3Ti to 241.7 m^(2)·g^(-1)for Sm_(0.15)Mn_(0.15)Ti.These effects contributed to the high catalytic activity.The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results indicated that the relative atomic ratios of Sm^(3+)/Sm and Oβ/O of Sm_(0.15)Mn_(0.15)Ti were 76.77at%and 44.11at%,respectively.The presence of Sm contributed to an increase in surface-absorbed oxygen (Oβ) and a decrease in Mn^(4+)surface concentration,which improved the catalytic activity.In the results of hydrogen temperature-programmed reduction(H_(2)-TPR),the presence of Sm induced a higher reduction temperature and lower H_(2)consumption (0.3 mmol·g^(-1)) for the Sm_(0.15)Mn_(0.15)Ti catalyst compared to the Mn0.3Ti catalyst.The decrease in Mn^(4+)weakened the redox property of the catalysts and increased the N_(2)selectivity by suppressing N_(2)O formation from NH3oxidation and the nonselective catalytic reduction reaction.The in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectra (DRIFTs) revealed that NH3-SCR of NO over the Sm_(0.15)Mn_(0.15)Ti catalyst mainly followed the Eley–Rideal mechanism.Sm doping increased surface-absorbed oxygen and weakened the redox property to improve the NO conversion and N_(2)selectivity of the Sm_(0.15)Mn_(0.15)Ti catalyst.

文摘V2O5/TiO2-ZrO2 catalysts containing various amounts of WO3 were synthesized.The catalyst morphologies,catalytic performances,and reaction mechanisms in the selective catalytic reduction of NOx by NH3 were investigated using in situ diffuse-reflectance infrared Fourier-transform spectroscopy,temperature-programmed reduction(TPR),X-ray diffraction,and the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller(BET) method.The BET surface area of the triple oxides increased with increasing ZrO2 doping but gradually decreased with increasing WO3 loading.Addition of sufficient WO3 helped to stabilize the pore structure and the combination of WO3 and ZrO2 improved dispersion of all the metal oxides.The mechanisms of reactions using V2O5-9%WO3/TiO2-ZrO2 and V2O5-9%WO3/TiO2were compared by using either a single or mixed gas feed and various pretreatments.The results suggest that both reactions followed the Eley-Ridel mechanism;however,the dominant acid sites,which depended on the addition of WO3 or ZrO2,determined the pathways for NOx reduction,and involved[NH4^+-NO-Bronsted acid site]^* and[NH2-NO-Lewis acid site]^* intermediates,respectively.NH3-TPR and H2-TPR showed that the metal oxides in the catalysts were not reduced by NH3 and O2did not reoxidize the catalyst surfaces but participated in the formation of H2O and NO2.

文摘A series of CuSO4/TiO2 catalysts were prepared using a wet impregnation method.The activity of each sample in the selective catalytic reduction of NO by NH3(NH3-SCR) was determined.The effects of SO2 and H2O,and their combined effect,on the activity were examined at 340 ℃ for 24 h.The catalysts were characterized using N2 adsorption-desorption,X-ray diffraction,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,temperature-programmed reduction of H2(H2-TPR),temperature-programmed desorption of NH3(NH3-TPD),and in situ diffuse-reflectance infrared Fourier-transform spectroscopy(DRIFTS).The CuSO4/TiO2 catalysts had good activities,with low production of N2O above 340 ℃.SO2 or a combination of SO2 and H2O had little effect on the activity,and H2O caused only a slight decrease in activity during the experimental period.The NH3-TPD and H2-TPR results showed that CuSO4 increased the amounts of acid sites and adsorbed oxygen on the catalyst.In situ DRIFTS showed that the NH3-SCR reaction on the CuSO4/TiO2 catalysts followed an Eley-Rideal mechanism.The reaction of gaseous NO with NH3 adsorbed on Lewis acid sites to form N2 and H2O could be the main reaction pathway,and oxygen adsorption might favor this process.

文摘CeTiOx and CeZrTiOx catalysts were prepared by a coprecipitation method and used for selective catalytic reduction of NOx by NH3 (NH3‐SCR). Various amounts of KNO3 were impregnated on the catalyst surface to investigate the effects of Zr addition on the K+‐poisoning resistance of the CeTiOx catalyst. The NH3‐SCR performance of the catalysts showed that the NOx removal activity of the Zr‐modified catalyst after poisoning was better than that of the CeTiOx catalyst. Brunau‐er‐Emmett‐Teller data indicated that the Zr‐containing catalyst had a larger specific surface area and pore volume both before and after K+poisoning. X‐ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy showed that Zr doping inhibited anatase TiO2 crystal grain growth, i.e., the molten salt flux effect caused by the loaded KNO3 was inhibited. The Ce 3d X‐ray photoelectron spectra showed that the Ce3+/Ce4+ratio of CeZrTiOx decreased more slowly than that of CeTiOx with increasing K+loading, indicating that Zr addition preserved more crystal defects and oxygen vacancies; this improved the catalytic performance. The acidity was a key factor in the NH3‐SCR performance; the temperature‐programmed desorption of NH3 results showed that Zr doping inhibited the decrease in the surface acidity. The results suggest that Zr improved the K+‐poisoning resistance of the CeTiOx catalyst.
文摘The structure and catalytic desulfurization characteristics of CeO2-TiO2 mixed oxides were investigated by means ofX-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and catalytic activity tests. According to the results, a CeO2-TiO2solid solution is formed when the mole ratio of cerium to titanium n(Ce):n(Ti) is 5:5 or greater, and the most suitable n(Ce):n(Ti) isdetermined as 7:3, over which the conversion rate of SO2 and the yield of sulfur at 500℃ reach 93% and 99%, respectively.According to the activity testing curve, Ce0.7Ti0.3O2 (n(Ce):n(Ti)=7:3) without any pretreatment can be gradually activated by reagentgas after about 10 min, and reaches a steady activation status 60 min later. The XPS results of Ce0.7Ti0.3O2 after different time ofSO2+CO reaction show that CeO2 is the active component that offers the redox couple Ce4+/Ce3+ and the labile oxygen vacancies, andTiO2 only functions as a catalyst structure stabilizer during the catalytic reaction process. After 48 h of catalytic reaction at 500℃,Ce0.7Ti0.3O2 still maintains a stable structure without being vulcanized, demonstrating its good anti-sulfur poisoning performance.

文摘A series of Fe‐Mn/Al2O3 catalysts were prepared and studied for low temperature selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with NH3 in a fixed‐bed reactor. The effects of Fe and Mn on NO conversion and the deactivation of the catalysts were studied. N2 adsorption‐desorption, X‐ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, H2 temperature‐programmed reduction, NH3 temperature‐programmed desorption, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), thermal gravimetric analysis and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were used to character‐ize the catalysts. The 8Fe‐8Mn/Al2O3 catalyst gave 99%of NO conversion at 150?? and more than 92.6%NO conversion was obtained in a wide low temperature range of 90–210??. XPS analysis demonstrated that the Fe3+was the main iron valence state on the catalyst surface and the addition of Mn increased the accumulation of Fe on the surface. The higher specific surface area, enhanced dispersion of amorphous Fe and Mn, improved reduction properties and surface acidity, lower binding energy, higher Mn4+/Mn3+ratio and more adsorbed oxygen species resulted in higher NO conversion for the 8Fe‐8Mn/Al2O3 catalyst. In addition, the SCR activity of the 8Fe‐8Mn/Al2O3 cata‐lyst was only slightly decreased in the presence of H2O and SO2, which indicated that the catalyst had better tolerance to H2O and SO2. The reaction temperature was crucial for the SO2 resistance of catalyst and the decrease of catalytic activity caused by SO2 was mainly due to the sulfate salts formed on the catalyst.

文摘Fe doped Beta zeolite with different Fe contents were prepared by ion exchange by changing the volume or the concentration of a Fe salt solution. For a particular mass of Fe salt precursor, the concentration of the metal salt solution during ion exchange influenced the ion exchange capacity of Fe, and resulted in different activities of the Fe-Beta catalyst. Fe-Beta catalysts with the Fe contents of (2.6, 6.3 and 9) wt% were synthesized using different amounts of 0.02 mol/L Fe salt solution. These catalysts were studied by various characterization techniques and their NH3-SCR activities were evaluated. The Fe-Beta catalyst with the Fe content of 6.3 wt% exhibited the highest activity, with a temperature range of 202-616℃ where the NOx conversion was 〉 80%. The Fe content in Beta zeolite did not influence the structure of Beta zeolite and valence state of Fe. Compared with the Fe-Beta catalysts with low Fe content (2.6 wt%), Fe-Beta catalysts with 6.3 wt% Fe content possessed more isolated Fe3. active sites which led to its higher NH3-SCR activity. A high capacity for NH3 and NO adsorption, and a high activity for NO oxidation also contributed to the high NH3-SCR activity of the Fe-Beta catalyst with 6.3 wt%. However, when the Fe content was further increased to 9.0 wt%, the amount of FexOy nanoparticles increased while the amount of isolated Fe3+ active sites was unchanged, which promoted NH3 oxidation and decreased the NH3-SCR activity at high temperature.

文摘The Cu-exchanged SSZ-13 with the small-pore chabazite framework is considered as a highly efficient catalyst for selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH_(3)(NH_(3)-SCR).In order to further improve the catalytic property,a series of Mn ion-assisted Cu/SSZ-13 powder catalysts were prepared by co-exchange method and stepwise exchange method.It is found that the NH_(3)-SCR activity,N_(2) selectivity,hydrothermal stability and sulfur resistance of Cu/SSZ-13 are promoted by introducing a minority of Mn(0.15%to 0.23%(mass))through co-exchange method.Characterization results reveal that the Cu,Mn co-exchange enables the higher amounts of Cu^(2+)active sites,the abundant medium strong and strong acid,the optimized ratio of Lewis acid to Brønsted acid etc.,which are required for a good NH_(3)-SCR catalytic property over broad temperature range and under harsh working environment.Moreover,a monolithic catalyst was prepared by impregnating a cordierite ceramic support into the coating slurry containing the optimized CuMn/SSZ-13 powder.The diesel engine bench tests show that Cu,Mn co-exchange gives the monolith catalyst a better catalytic property than commercial catalysts.This work provides an important guidance for the rational design of secondary-ion-assisted zeolites applied in NH_(3)-SCR.

文摘A series of meso‐microporous copper‐supporting chabazite molecular sieve(CuSAPO‐34) catalysts with excellent performance in low‐temperature ammonia selective catalytic reduction(NH3‐SCR)have been synthesized via a one‐pot hydrothermal crystallization method. The physicochemical properties of the catalysts were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, N2 adsorption‐desorption measurements, X‐ray diffraction, 27 Al magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance, diffuse reflectance ultraviolet‐visible spectroscopy, inductively coupled plasma‐atomic emission spectroscopy, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, temperature‐programmed reduction measurements, and electron paramagnetic resonance analysis. The formation of micro‐mesopores in the Cu‐SAPO‐34 catalysts decreases diffusion resistance and greatly improves the accessibility of reactants to catalytic active sites. The main active sites for NH3‐SCR reaction are the isolated Cu^2+ species displaced into the ellipsoidal cavity of the Cu‐SAPO‐34 catalysts.

文摘A series of H3PO4-modified CeO2 samples were prepared by impregnation of CeO2 with H3PO4solution,and evaluated for the selective catalytic reduction of NOx by NH3.The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction,N2 adsorption-desorption,infrared spectroscopy,Raman spectroscopy,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,temperature-programmed desorption of NH3,and temperature-programmed reduction of H2.The results showed that more than 80%NO conversion was achieved in the temperature range 250-550℃ over the H3PO4-CeO2 catalyst.The enhanced catalytic performance could be ascribed to the increase in acidic strength,especially Bronsted acidity,and reduction in redox properties of the CeO2 after H3PO4 modification.

文摘A titania pillared interlayered clay(Ti-PILC) supported vanadia catalyst(V2O5/TiO2-PILC) was prepared by wet impregnation for the selective catalytic reduction(SCR) of NO with ammonia. Compared to the traditional V2O5/TiO2 and V2O5-MoO3/TiO2 catalysts, the V2O5/TiO2-PILC catalyst exhibited a higher activity and better SO2 and H2O resistance in the NH3-SCR reaction. Characterization using TPD, in situ DRIFT and XPS showed that surface sulfate and/or sulfite species and ionic SO4^(2-)species were formed on the catalyst in the presence of SO2. The ionic SO4^(2-) species on the catalyst surface was one reason for deactivation of the catalyst in SCR. The formation of the ionic SO4^(2-) species was correlated with the amount of surface adsorbed oxygen species. Less adsorbed oxygen species gave less ionic SO4^(2-) species on the catalyst.

文摘CeO2/γ-Al2O3, La203/γ-Al2O3, CeO2-La203/γ-Al2O3 and CeO2-La2O3, which were prepared by impregnating in certain ratio, were used as the catalysts for the reduction of SO2 and NO by CO. Separate and simultaneous removal of SO2 and NO over LaEO3/γ-Al2O3, CeOE/γ-Al2O3, CeOE-LaEO3/γ-Al2O3 were investigated. The phase characteristics of catalysts were also analyzed by X-ray diffraction. The result shows that the conversions of SO2 and NO are above 98 % over CeOE/γ-Al2O3 and CeOE-LaEO3/γ-Al2O3. After SO2 is added in the NO-CO-N2 system (NO :SO2 = 1:2 - 1 : 3), the conversions of SO2 and NO are both above 98%. Furthermore, it is found that CeO2-La2O3 with various ratios has different activity for the simultaneous reduction of SO2 and NO.

文摘Monolithic catalysts of Pt/La-Al2O3 and Pt/Ce0.67Zr0.3302 were prepared to investigate methane selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO. The results indicate that Pt/Ce0.67Zr0.33O2 shows high activity and both NO and CH4 can be converted completely at 450℃. Meanwhile, NO and CH4 can be converted completely when there exists excess oxygen. The Pt/Ce0.67Zr0.33O2 catalyst were further investigated by using methane as reducing agent to SCR NO in a novel equipment which combined the CH4 selective catalytic reduction of NO with methane combustion. The result shows that the catalyst is high active and the novel equipment is very effective. The conversion of NO is above 92% under the conditions used in this work. The prepared burner and catalysts have great potential for application.

文摘Catalytic properties of MnOx-FeOx complex oxide (hereafter denoted as Mn-Fe) catalysts modified with different loadings of chromium oxide were investigated by using the combination of physico-cbemical techniques, such as N2 physisorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM), in situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (in situ FT-IR) and temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) and their catalytic activities were evaluated with the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx by NH3. It was found that with the addition of Cr, more NO could be removed in the low-temperature window (below 120 ℃). Among the tested catalysts, Mn-Fe- Cr (2 : 2 : 1) catalyst exhibited the best catalytic performance at 80 ℃ with the NO conversion higher than 90%. The combination of the reaction and characterization results indicated that (1) the strong interaction among tertiary metal oxides existed in the catalysts when Cr was appropriately added, which made the active components better dispersed with less agglomeration and sintering and the largest BET specific surface area could be obtained; (2) Cr improved the low-temperature reducibility of the catalyst and promoted the formation of the active intermediate (-NH3+), which favored the low-temperature SCR reaction.

文摘The catalyst of Fe-Mo/ZSM-5 has been found to be more active than Fe-ZSM-5 and Mo/ZSM-5 separately for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of nitric oxide (NO) with NH3. The kinetics of the SCR reaction in the presence of O2 was studied in this work. The results showed that the observed reaction orders were 0.74-0.99, 0.01-0.13, and 0 for NO, O2 and NH3 at 350-450℃, respectively. And the apparent activation energy of the SCR was 65 kJ/mol on the Fe-Mo/ZSM-5 catalyst. The SCR mechanism was also deduced. Adsorbed NO species can react directly with adsorbed ammonia species on the active sites to form N2 and H2O. Gaseous O2 might serve as a reoxidizing agent for the active sites that have undergone reduction in the SCR process. It is also important to note that a certain amount of NO was decomposed directly over the Fe-Mo/ZSM-5 catalyst in the absence of NH3.
文摘Dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma was utilized to oxidize NO contained in the exhaust gas to NO2, ultimately improve the selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides (NOx). In the one case, DBD was created directly in the exhaust gas (direct application), and in the an other case, ozone produced by DBD was injected into the exhaust gas (indirect application). A comparative study between such direct and indirect applications of DBD plasma was made in terms of the NOx removal efficiency and the energy consumption. The NO2 content in the exhaust gas was changed by the voltage applied to the DBD device (for direct application) or by the amount of ozone added to the exhaust gas (for indirect application). In both cases, NO was easily oxidized to NO2, and the change in NO2 content largely affected the NOx removal performance of the catalytic reactor placed downstream, where both NO and NO2 were reduced to N2 in the presence of ammonia as the reducing agent. The experiments were primarily concerned with the effect of reaction temperature on the catalytic NOx reduction at various NO2 contents. The direct and indirect applications of DBD were found to remarkably improve the catalytic NOx reduction, especially at low temperatures.

文摘A series of copper-cobalt oxides supported on nano-titanium dioxide were prepared for the reduction of nitric oxide with carbon monoxide and characterized using techniques such as XRD, BET and TPR. Catalyst CuCoOx/TiO2 with Cu/Co molar ratio of 1/2, CuCo total loading of 30% at the calcination temperature of 350℃ formed CuCo204 spinel and had the highest activity. NO conversion reached 98.9% at 200℃. Mechanism of the reduction was also investigated, N20 was mainly yielded below 100℃, while N2 was produced instead at higher temperature. O2 was supposed to accelerate the reaction between NOx and CO for its oxidation of NO to give more easily reduced NO2, but the oxidation of CO by O2 to CO2 decreased the speed of the reaction greatly. Either SO2 or H20 had no adverse impact on the activity of NO reduction; however, in the presence of both SO2 and H20, the catalyst deactivated quickly.
文摘Binary metal oxide(MnOx-A/TiO2)catalysts were prepared by adding the second metal to manganese oxides supported on titanium dioxide(TiO2),where,A indicates Fe2O3,WO3,MoO3,and Cr2O3.Their catalytic activity,N2 selectivity,and SO2 poisonous tolerance were investigated.The catalytic performance at low temperatures decreased in the following order:Mn-W/TiO2〉Mn-Fe/TiO2〉Mn-Cr/TiO2〉Mn-Mo/TiO2,whereas the N2 selectivity decreased in the order:Mn-Fe/TiO2〉Mn-W/TiO2〉Mn-Mo/TiO2〉Mn-Cr/TiO2.In the presence of 0.01%SO2 and 6%H2O,the NOx conversions in the presence of Mn-W/TiO2,Mn-Fe/TiO2,or Mn-Mo/TiO2 maintain 98.5%,95.8%and 94.2%, respectively,after 8 h at 120°C at GHSV 12600 h? 1 .As effective promoters,WO3 and Fe2O3 can increase N2 selectivity and the resistance to SO2 of MnOx/TiO2 significantly.The Fourier transform infrared(FTIR)spectra of NH3 over WO3 show the presence of Lewis acid sites.The results suggest that WO3 is the best promoter of MnOx/TiO2,and Mn-W/TiO2 is one of the most active catalysts for the low temperature selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH3.
