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.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
