Selective Catalytic Reduction of NO over Cu-Mn/OMC Catalysts: Effect of Preparation Method

Abstract

Ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC) was used as support for CuO x and MnO x , and the effects of preparation method on selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with NH 3 were investigated. The Cu-Mn/OMC prepared by solvent evaporation-induced self-assembly method, named as self-assembly synthesis (S), exhibited higher NO conversion and N 2 selectivity than the catalyst prepared by ultrasound-assisted impregnation (I) or mechanical mixing (M). The structural and surface properties of catalysts were characterized by various techniques. XRD and TEM results showed good dispersion of active phases on Cu-Mn/OMC(S). XPS analysis suggested that the surface of Cu-Mn/OMC(S) had the maximum amount of O-C=O groups and chemisorbed O. The strongest acidity and largest amount of oxidative species were further illustrated by NH 3 -TPD and H 2 -TPR profiles, which were consistent with the XPS results. Accordingly, these favorable properties may be the main reasons for the outstanding performance of Cu-Mn/OMC(S) in NH 3 -SCR reaction. Thus, selfassembly synthesis can be considered an effective method for the preparation of OMC-supported catalysts.

Characterization and SCR Performance of Nano-Structured Iron-Manganese Oxides: Effect of Annealing Temperature

“…Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) has been proved to be an effective technology for the reduction of NO x by NH 3 over different catalysts due to its high efficiency and economic efficiency (Yu, 2015;Jiang et al, 2017;Yu et al, 2017). Among these catalysts, V 2 O 5 /TiO 2 in combination with MoO 3 and WO 3 has been commercialized in consequence of its high catalytic reactivity, including NO conversion, N 2 selectivity and resistance to sulfur poisoning, and mechanical strength.…”

A new V2O5–MoO3–TiO2–SO42−nanostructured aerogel catalyst for diesel DeNOxtechnology

“…[1,2]. Selective catalytic reduction of NO x by ammonia (NO-SCR or NH 3 -SCR), in excess O 2 , has been considered as the most efficient available technology for nitrogen oxide removal from stationary sources and diesel exhausts [3][4]. (generally deposited by the impregnation method), are still widely used in thermal power plants and coal-fired boilers [5][6][7].…”
