In this paper, we report a catalyst, Cu2+ loading SAPO-17, synthesized using cyclohexylamine(CHA), which is commercially available and inexpensive and is utilized in NH3-SCR reduction for the first time. After systematic investigations on the optimization of Si and Cu2+ contents, it was concluded that Cu-SAPO-17-8.0%-0.22 displays favorable catalytic performance, even after being heated at 353 K for 24 h and at 973 K for 16 h. Moreover, the locations of CHAs, host–guest interaction and the Bronsted acid sites were explored by Rietveld refinement against powder X-ray diffraction data of as-made SAPO-17-8.0%. The refinement results showed that two CHAs exist within one eri cage and that the protonated CHA forms a hydrogen bond with O4, which indicates that the proton bonding with O4 will form the Bronsted acid site after the calcination.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
