Abstract:Nitrogen oxides NO x , which include NO (nitrogen monoxide), NO 2 (nitrogen dioxide), and N 2 O (nitrous oxide), are currently considered to be among the most dangerous air pollutants, as they cause acid rain, contribute to photochemical smog, and have direct harmful effects on human health. For all these reasons, in the last decades NO x emissions have been regulated in industrialized countries by more and more restrictive legislation.[1] Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) technology is well established and … Show more
“…Among them, 24 h is the optimized time period of material synthesis. The resultant Mn-24 h shows the best performance and the time durations for 100% and 60% removal of 10 ppm NO are as long as 10 h and 21 h, respectively, which is much better than that of previously reported mesoporous X-Mn materials (4 h and 5 h for 100% and 60% removal, respectively 7 ) and Co 3 Table S1, ESI â ), the surface state of the synthesized Mn-t h materials determines their performances, which will be discussed below.…”
At a high space velocity of 120â000 mL g(-1) h(-1) and a relative humidity of 50-90%, 98% removal of 10 ppm NO has been achieved for over 237 h and no sign of deactivation was observed with mesostructured amorphous manganese oxides (AMO), due to the prevention of the catalyst active sites from deactivation.

“…3,4 This includes emissions from ships, diesel locomotives, or gas turbines, and of increasing importance are those from heavy-duty vehicles and passenger cars using diesel engines. 73 The îndings of this work emphasize the need for control measures for traffic emission of NH 3 , to reduce effects on aerosol mass through organic ammonium salt formation.…”
Ambient measurements of PM aerosol chemical composition at Cabauw, the Netherlands, implicate higher ammonium concentrations than explained by the formation of inorganic ammonium salts. This additional particulate ammonium is called excess ammonium (e). Height profiles over the Cabauw Experimental Site for Atmospheric Research (CESAR) tower, of combined ground based and airborne aerosol mass spectrometric (AMS) measurements on a Zeppelin airship show higher concentrations of e at higher altitudes compared to the ground. Through flights across the Netherlands, the Zeppelin based measurements furthermore substantiate e as a regional phenomenon in the planetary boundary layer. The excess ammonium correlates with mass spectral signatures of (di-)carboxylic acids, making a heterogeneous acid-base reaction the likely process of NH uptake. We show that this excess ammonium was neutralized by the organic fraction forming particulate organic ammonium salts. We discuss the significance of such organic ammonium salts for atmospheric aerosols and suggest that NH emission control will have benefits for particulate matter control beyond the reduction of inorganic ammonium salts.
“…As shown in Figure S2, NO x conversion of Cu/bauxite is gradually enhanced when NO 2 /NO x ratio is increased from 0.25 to 0.5, and reaches the maximum at 0.5, subsequent drop of NO x conversion is observed at 0.75 and 1.0. It was reported that when NH 3 and NO 2 were fed into the reactor, NH 4 NO 3 can be formed at low temperature 113. Since NH 4 NO 3 cannot be detected directly by our apparatus, transient response method (TRM) of Cu/bauxite at 150 °C was conducted to indirectly estimate the amount of NH 4 NO 3 according to N-balance.…”

“…Nitrogen oxides (NO x ) are considered as one of serious air pollutants, they are mainly emitted from automobile exhaust gas and industrial combustion of fossil fuels 123. To meet for more and more stringent regulations of NO x emission, several promising techniques including NO x storage and reduction (NSR) and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) have been proposed for NO x post-treatment 23.…”
In order to develop low-temperature (below 200 °C) and SO2-tolerant catalysts for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx, a series of cheap M/bauxite (M = Mn, Ni and Cu) catalysts were prepared using bauxite as a support. Their SCR performances are much superior to typical V2O5/TiO2, the addition of M into bauxite results in significant promotion of NOx removal efficiency, especially at low temperature. Among the catalysts, Cu/bauxite exhibits wide temperature window over 50â400 °C, strong resistance against SO2 and H2O as well as good regeneration ability in SCR of NOx. NOx conversion is more than 80% at 50â200 °C, and N2 selectivity is more than 98%. Cu/bauxite can serve as a promising catalyst in SCR of NOx.
