Abstract:The influence of Fe speciation on the decomposition rates of N2O over Fe–ZSM-5 catalysts prepared by Chemical Vapour Impregnation were investigated. Various weight loadings of Fe–ZSM-5 catalysts were prepared from the parent zeolite H-ZSM-5 with a Si:Al ratio of 23 or 30. The effect of Si:Al ratio and Fe weight loading was initially investigated before focussing on a single weight loading and the effects of acid washing on catalyst activity and iron speciation.

“…The results indicated that the adsorbed N2O can be easily decomposed to N2 without activation energy. Fe-ZSM-5 catalysts were used to remove N2O from gas by Richards et al (2018). Comparison of catalysts with relatively high and low Fe loadings achieved comparable levels of N2O decomposition when propane is present.…”

Being the third most significant anthropogenic greenhouse gas, nitrous gas (N2O) has 300-fold stronger effect than carbon dioxide (CO2) and 4 ~ 30-fold stronger effect than methane (CH4). In this study, the main sources and mechanisms of N2O emission from biological wastewater treatment were reviewed, and the possible mitigation strategies were discussed. Parameters including dissolved oxygen, temperature, pH, organic carbon, and nitrite concentration have influences on the emission of N2O. The possible mitigation strategies were put forward by controlling these parameters in biological wastewater treatment and inducing modified technologies such as simultaneous nitrification-denitrification, denitrifying phosphorus removal, and aerobic granular sludge. In order to obtain a near-zero N2O emission, applying typical catalysts in the nitrification or denitrification tank to decompose N2O into harmless gas is recommended. Moreover, a method of developing photochemical processes to transform N2O could also be suggested.

“…O y clusters on the exchanged sites affects the catalytic performance [13,22]. Furthermore, it is also notable that Cosites were more active than Fe-sites due to lower activation energy barrier for the direct decomposition of N 2 O [19,24].…”

“…3d), the two bands observed at 200-260 nm and at 260-360 nm corresponding to the typical ligand to metal charge transfer (LMCT) bands of isolated Fe 3+ species in the cationic sites [19,34] and isolated or oligomeric extraframework Fe species in zeolite channels [22], respectively. The bands at 360-460 nm (iron oxide clusters) and > 450 nm (large surface oxide species) can be associated to Fe 2 O 3 particles on zeolite surface [22]. Note that the spectrum of the Fe-ZSM-5 catalyst was characterized by a low intensity absorption edge at 550 nm reflecting low concentration of Fe oxide nanoparticles, which was not detected by XRD (< 4 nm), however observed by TPR.…”

“…On the other hand, Fe-zeolite catalysts have been outstanding due to their high activity and resistance in co-fed of CH 4 , CO, O 2 and SO 2 [20,21]. Fe-ZSM-5 has been most studied experimentally and theoretically for the decomposition of N 2 O [22,23]. It is believed that isolated Fe 3+ and oligonuclear Fe x…”
The influence of co-fed gases (O 2 , CO 2 , CH 4 , and H 2 O) on the N 2 O decomposition over (Co or Fe)-BETA and (Co, Fe)-ZSM-5 catalysts prepared by ion exchange method was investigated. Co 2+ ions and oxo dinuclear Co species were identified in Co-ZSM-5 and Co-BETA catalysts. Isolated and oligomeric Fe 3+ species in cationic sites and Fe 2 O 3 particles were found on surface of the Fe-ZSM-5 and Fe-BETA catalysts. Cobalt catalysts were more actives than iron catalysts for the direct decomposition of N 2 O. Conversion of N 2 O over Fe-BETA and Fe-ZSM-5 was remained stable when co-fed O 2 , CO 2 , and CH 4 , but decreases with water vapor. However, Co-BETA and Co-ZSM-5 showed much larger reaction rate for N 2 O decomposition and were very stable when co-fed O 2 , CO 2 , CH 4 , and especially H 2 O. The results showed that the higher CH 4 consumption during N 2 O reaction over Co-BETA and Co-ZSM-5 was due to CH 4 combustion.

“…All the noble metal based systems are supported catalysts, and the nature of the interactions of a noble metal with the support plays also a crucial role in their activity. [27][28][29] The main disadvantage of noble-metal catalysts is the high cost, so chemists are mostly looking for suitable catalytic materials from the second groupnon-noble-metal oxide catalytic systems 22 which include a wide range of oxide types such as bulk oxides, [30][31][32] spinels, 33,34 perovskites, hexaferrites, hydrotalcites [35][36][37][38][39][40][41] etc. The use of a support allows one to increase the specific activity of metal particles due to the enhanced dispersity, which is convincingly illustrated by examples of Fe 2 O 3 and Co 3 O 4 supported on ZrO 2 catalysts.…”
Lanthanum orthoferrite powders were synthesized via one-step hydrothermal reactions under mild conditions using microwave and conventional heating. The use of microwave irradiation during the synthesis allows one to obtain nanocrystalline LaFeO 3 with a higher yield and reduced crystallite and particle size within a 16 times shorter duration (3 hours) at a lower temperature of 220°C as compared to the conventional heating. The catalytic decomposition of nitrous oxide was performed over both samples, it was shown that the sample obtained under microwave conditions demonstrates enhanced activity as a catalyst: N 2 O decomposes completely at 700°C over the catalyst formed at microwave conditions, while the comparative catalyst prepared by conventional heating reaches a lower conversion of only 60% at the same temperature and catalytic reaction conditions.
