Abstract
- Aiming at understanding N 2 O formation in a low-temperature SCR process, mechanistic studies regarding the synergistic removal of NO and inhibition of N 2 O formation by the addition of Ce and V into MnO x /Ti based catalysts prepared by the sol-gel method were conducted and analyzed by various techniques, including BET, XRD, XPS, NH 3 -TPD, and FTIR. The results show that the addition of Ce raises the NO conversion efficiency and shifts the high performance region toward the low temperature range, while the addition of V generates less N 2 O. As an optimal formula, Mn(0.4)Ce(0.1)V(0.01)/Ti ensures a high NO conversion efficiency and low N 2 O formation. N 2 O mainly originates from (1) the direct oxidation of NH 3 with O 2 and (2) the reaction of NO and adsorbed NH 3 in the low-temperature SCR process. The latter plays a dominant role at temperatures below 240 °C. The strong redox properties on the MnO x /Ti catalyst surface result in a high NO conversion efficiency and generates numerous NH(ads) species that cause N 2 O formation. The slight addition of V promotes the formation of acid by bringing Lewis acid sites to the catalyst surface and effectively restricts N 2 O formation. Lewis acid sites have a positive function in maintaining a high NO conversion and inhibiting N 2 O formation compared to Brønsted acid sites. In addition, the well-dispersed V on the surface of Mn(0.4)Ce(0.1)V(0.01)/Ti results in improved textural properties, more lattice oxygen and less labile oxygen, as well as comparable Mn 4+ /Mn 3+ , which also improves the catalyst performance at low temperature.
