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

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

The performance of the CuO-CeO2-MnOx/γ-Al2O3 catalysts for the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) was studied in a fixed bed system. Preliminary tests were carried out to analyze the behavior of NH3 and NO over catalyst in the presence of oxygen. The optimum temperature range for SCR over the CuO-CeO2-MnOx/γ-Al2O3 catalysts is 300-400 ℃ . The catalysts maintain nearly 100% NO conversion at 350 ℃. The NH3 oxidation experiments show that both NO and N2O are produced gradually with the increase of temperature. The catalysts in this experiment have a stronger oxidation property on NH3, which improves the denitrification activity at low temperature. The over-oxidation of NH3 at high temperature is the main cause leading to a decrease in the NO conversion. The NH3 and NO desorption experiments show that NH3 and NO can be adsorbed on CuO-CeO2-MnOx/γ-Al2O3 granular catalysts. The transient response of NH3 and NO indicates that the SCR reaction proceeds in accordance with the Eley-Rideal mechanism. The adsorbed NO has little influence on the denitrification activity in SCR process.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

The catalytic activities of fresh, aged and poisoned samples were tested in ammonia-selective catalytic reduction (NH<sub>3</sub>-SCR) of NO<sub>x</sub> conditions. The XRD, TG and N<sub>2</sub>-desorption results showed that the structures of the Cu-SAPO-34 and Cu-ZSM-5 remained intact after 750˚C hydrothermally aged, SO<sub>2</sub> and propene poisoned. After hydrothermal aging at 750˚C for 12 h, the NO reduction performance of Cu-ZSM-5 was significantly reduced at lower temperatures, while that of Cu-SAPO-34 was less affected. Moreover, Cu-SAPO-34 catalyst showed high NO conversion with SO<sub>2</sub> or propene compared to Cu-ZSM-5. However, Cu-ZSM-5 showed a larger drop in catalytic activity with SO<sub>2</sub> or propene compared to Cu-SAPO-34 catalyst. The H<sub>2</sub>-TPR results showed that Cu<sup>2 </sup> ions could be reduced to Cu<sup> </sup> and Cu<sup>0</sup> for Cu-ZSM-5, while no significant transformation of copper species was observed for Cu-SAPO-34. Meanwhile, the UV-vis DRS results showed that CuO species were formed in Cu-ZSM-5, while little changes were observed for the Cu-SAPO-34. Cu-SAPO-34 showed high sulfur and hydrocarbon poison resistance compared to Cu-ZSM-5. In summary, Cu-SAPO-34 with small-pore zeolite showed higher hydrothermal stability and better hydrocarbon and sulfur poison resistant than Cu-ZSM-5 with medium-pore.展开更多

As a result of the heavy reliance on coal for electricity generation, emissions of air pollutants, such as nitrogen oxides (NOx), are increasing. To address these growing emissions, the Ministry of Environmental Protection (MEP) has introduced new NOx emission control policies to encourage the installation of selective catalytic reduction (SCR) technologies on a large number of coalfired electric power plants. There is, however, limited experience with SCR in China. It is therefore useful to explore the lessons from the use of SCR technologies in other countries. This paper provides an overview of SCR technology performance at coal-fired electric power plants demonstrating emission removal rates between 65% and 92%. It also reviews the design and operational challenges that, if not addressed, can reduce the reliability, performance, and cost-effectiveness of SCR technologies. These challenges include heterogeneous flue gas conditions, catalyst degradation, ammonia slip, sulfur trioxide (SO3) formation, and fouling and corrosion of plant equipment. As China and the rest of the world work to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from parasitic load and urea-to-ammonia conversion may also become more important. If these challenges are properly addressed, SCR can reliably and effectively remove up to 90% of NOx emissions at coal-fired power plants.展开更多

However, the effects of Na+ ions on Cu/SAPO-34 for ammonia selective catalytic reduction(NH_3-SCR) are still unclear. In order to investigate the mechanism, five samples with various Na contents were synthesized and characterized. It was observed that the introduced Na+ ion-exchanges with H+and Cu2+of Cu/SAPO-34. The exchange of H+is easier than that of isolated Cu2+. The exchanged Cu2+ions aggregate and form "CuAl_2O4-like" species.The NH_3-SCR activity of Cu/SAPO-34 decreases with increasing Na content, and the loss of isolated Cu2+and acid sites is responsible for the activity loss.展开更多

In the absence of SO2, H2O inhibited the SCR activity, which might be ascribed to the competitive adsorption of H2O and reactants such as NH3 and/or NOx. SO2 could promote the SCR activity of CeO2/TiO2 monolith catalyst in the absence of H20, while in the presence of H20 it speeded the deactivation. During the SCR reaction in SO2-containing gases, Ce(Ⅲ) sulfate species formed on the catalyst surface, resulting in the en- hancement of Bronsted acidity. This played a significant role in the enhanced SCR activity. However, in the presence of both H2O and SO2, a large amount of ammonium-sulfate salts formed on the catalyst surface, which resulted in the blocking of catalyst pores and deactivated the catalyst. In addition, the NOx conversion was more sensitive to gas hourly space velocity in the presence of H20 than in the absence of H20. The relatively high space velocity would result in a higher formation rate of ammonium-sulfate salts on per unit catalyst in the presence of H2O and SO2, which caused obvious deactivation of Ce/TiO2 monolith catalyst.展开更多
