Nanosized V-Ce oxides supported on TiO2 (VCT) were prepared and utilized in the low-temperature selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with NH3. Compared with the other V-Ce oxides-based catalysts supported on Al2O3, ZrO2, and ZSM-5, VCT showed the best SCR activity in a low-temperature range. The NOx conversion of 90% could be achieved at 220 °C. Characterizations including X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning election micrograph (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), temperature-programmed desorption with NH3 (NH3-TPD), and temperature-programmed reduction with H2 (H2-TPR) showed that V1.05Ce1/TiO2 exhibited a good dispersion of V2O5, enrichment of surface Ce3+ and chemical-absorbed oxygen, and excellent redox capacity and acidity, which resulted in the best SCR performance at low temperature.

AbstractSelective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with propane using bimetals (3Co2Ce, 3Co2Sr, 3Co2Sn and 3Co2In) loaded on HMCM-49 zeolite was studied under lean-burn condition. Only 3Co2In/HMCM-49 exhibited higher deNOx activity in a wide temperature range. The catalysts were characterized by N2-adsoption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), temperature-programmed surface reactions (TPSR) and temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) of NO. TPSR and TPD results exhibited that the addition of In inhibited the oxidation ability of Co on 3Co2In/HMCM-49 catalyst, but enhanced NOx adsorption.

Preparation of Mn/TiO2, Mn-Fe/TiO2, and Mn-Fe-Ce/TiO2 by the deposition-precipitation (DP) method can afford very active catalysts for low-temperature NH3-SCR (selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH3). The effect of precursor choice (nitrate vs. acetate) of Mn, Fe, and Ce on the physiochemical properties including thermal stability and the resulting SCR activity were investigated. The resulting materials were characterized by N2-Physisorption, XRD (Powder X-ray diffraction), XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy), H2-TPR (temperature-programmed reduction with hydrogen), and the oxidation of NO to NO2 measured at 300 °C. Among all the prepared catalysts 5MnAce/Ti, 25Mn0.75AceFe0.25Nit/Ti, and 25Mn0.75AceFe0.20NitCe0.05Ace/Ti showed superior SCR activity at low temperature. The superior activity of the latter two materials is likely attributable to the presence of amorphous active metal oxide phases (manganese-, iron- and cerium-oxide) and the ease of the reduction of metal oxides on TiO2. Enhanced ability to convert NO to NO2, which can promote fast-SCR like pathways, could be another reason. Cerium was found to stabilize amorphous manganese oxide phases when exposed to high temperatures.

The development of a catalyst for the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx is essential for purifying air and the denitration of coal-burning exhaust. Herein, we prepare novel MnOx-CeO2 nanosheets with porous structures by a homogeneous coordination precipitation (HCP) method which exhibit a high NO removal efficiency above 90% in the SCR reaction at low temperature (150–240°C). The MnOx-CeO2(HCP) catalysts have a higher Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area and more homogeneous distribution of Mnx+ in the CeO2 lattice than those prepared by co-precipitation and precursor mixture combustion methods according to BET, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy characterizations. Together with a higher ratio of Mn4+, Ce3+, and Oα, the above properties are responsible for the high catalytic performances of MnOx-CeO2(HCP) in the SCR of NOx.

At present, the development of novel catalysts with high activity Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) reaction at the low temperature is still a challenge. In this work, the authors prepare CeO2/quasi-MIL-101 catalysts with various amounts of deposited ceria by a double-solvent method, which are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and so on. The results show that the increase of Ce content has a great influence on the catalytic property of the catalyst. The introduction of Ce can promote the conversion between Cr3+ and Cr5+ and increase the proportion of lattice oxygen, which improves the activity of the catalyst. However, the catalyst will be peroxidized when the content of Ce is too high, resulting in the decline of the catalytic activity. This experiment indicates that CeO2/quasi-MIL-101 plays a significant role in the NH3-SCR process at the low temperature when the loading of Ce is 0.5%. This work has proved the potential of this kind of material in NH3-SCR process at the low temperature, providing help for subsequent studies.

Abstract One of the most significant aspects in selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of nitrogen oxides (NOx) is developing suitable catalysts by which the process occurs in a favorable way. At the present work SCR reaction by ammonia (NH3-SCR) was conducted using Co-Mn spinel and its composite with Fe-Mn spinel, as nanocatalysts. The nanocatalysts were fabricated through liquid routes and then their physicochemical properties such as phase composition, degree of agglomeration, particle size distribution, specific surface area and also surface acidic sites have been investigated by X-ray diffraction, Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope, Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy mapping, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller, temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR) and temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia (NH3-TPD) analysis techniques. The catalytic activity tests in a temperature window of 150–400 °C and gas hourly space velocities of 10,000, 18,000 and 30,000 h−1 revealed that almost in all studied conditions, CoMn2O4/FeMn2O4 nanocomposite exhibited better performance in SCR reaction than CoMn2O4 spinel.

In this work, a series of Ce-W-Ti catalysts were synthesized using a solution combustion method for the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with NH3 at low temperatures. The reaction performance of NH3-SCR of NO was significantly improved over the Ce-W-Ti catalysts compared to Ce0.4Ti and W0.4Ti catalysts, while Ce0.2W0.2Ti showed the best activity among all the samples. The Ce0.2W0.2Ti catalyst exhibited over 90% removal of NO and 100% N2 selectivity in the temperature range of 250–400 °C at a gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) of 120,000 mL·g−1·h−1. The Ce-W-Ti catalysts were characterized using N2 adsorption-desorption, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectrometry and temperature programmed desorption of NH3 to establish the structure-activity relationships of the Ce-W-Ti catalysts. The excellent catalytic performance of the Ce0.2W0.2Ti catalyst could be associated with the larger specific surface area, highly dispersed Ce and W species, increased amount of surface adsorbed oxygen (Oads) and enhanced total acidity on the catalyst surfaces.

Rod-shaped Cu1Fe9Ox precursor was successfully prepared through an aqueous precipitation method. The shape and phase composition were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). It was found that Cu1Fe9Ox is composed of CuFe2O4 and Fe2O3. The reduction performance of Cu1Fe9Ox was studied by in situ XRD and H2 temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR). Cu/Fe3O4 nanorod catalyst is obtained through the controllable reduction of Cu1Fe9Ox nanorod, and the formed Cu/Fe3O4 nanorod catalyst does not have low-temperature water gas shift (WGS) activity, but exhibits high-temperature WGS reaction activity. Ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (AP-XPS) studies showed that the main species of copper is Cu+ during the WGS reaction. The interaction between Cu and Fe3O4 rod and phase evolution of Cu species are quite different from Cu/Fe3O4 nanoparticles.

The cerium and/or zirconium-doped Cu/ZSM-5 catalysts (CuCexZr1−xOy/ZSM-5) were prepared by ion exchange and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), temperature-programmed reduction by hydrogen (H2-TPR). Activities of the catalysts obtained on the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of nitric oxide (NO) by ammonia were measured using temperature programmed reactions. Among all the catalysts tested, the CuCe0.75Zr0.25Oy/ZSM-5 catalyst presented the highest catalytic activity for the removal of NO, corresponding to the broadest active window of 175–468 °C. The cerium and zirconium addition enhanced the activity of catalysts, and the cerium-rich catalysts exhibited more excellent SCR activities as compared to the zirconium-rich catalysts. XRD and TEM results indicated that zirconium additions improved the copper dispersion and prevented copper crystallization. According to XPS and H2-TPR analysis, copper species were enriched on the ZSM-5 grain surfaces, and part of the copper ions were incorporated into the zirconium and/or cerium lattice. The strong interaction between copper species and cerium/zirconium improved the redox abilities of catalysts. Furthermore, the introduction of zirconium abates N2O formation in the tested temperature range.

Mn - FeO x/carbon nanotubes (CNTs) catalysts were firstly prepared via simple incipient wetness method and used for low-temperature selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with NH 3. The structure and surface properties of the catalysts were characterized by N 2 sorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and temperature-programmed reduction by hydrogen ( H 2-TPR). It was found that Mn - FeO x/CNTs catalyst exhibited excellent low-temperature SCR activity and SO 2 resistance. XRD patterns revealed that metal oxides catalysts were possessed of amorphous structure. FESEM and TEM images showed that metal oxides catalysts were successfully supported on CNTs. The XPS results indicated that the obtained catalyst presented high Mn 4+/ Mn 3+ and OS/(OS + OL) ratios. The H 2-TPR profiles showed that Mn - FeO x/CNTs catalyst possessed better low-temperature reducibility. Besides, the obtained catalyst exhibited better SO 2 resistance.

Two catalysts, MnOx and ceria modified MnOx were prepared by deposition-precipitation method and used for low-temperature selective catalytic reduction (SCR) with NH3in the presence of SO2. The catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), surface area measurement (BET) and thermal gravimetry analysis(TG). The deactivation of MnOx and MnOx-CeO2by SO2was observed during SCR process. It was found that the resistance to SO2could be greatly enhanced for Ce modified MnOx. It was because that the formation of Mn(SO4)x was prevented and the depositions of (NH4)2SO4and NH4HSO4were significantly inhibited with the doping of ceria.
