Abstract:

Ceria-based catalysts(CeTiOx-A and CeTiOx-B) were prepared by solid state ball milling method with Ce2(C2O4)3 and Ce(SO4)2 as precursors, respectively. Then, the prepared ceria-based catalysts were treated in reaction atmosphere consisted of 0.15%SO2 for 40 and 60 h, respectively. The obtained catalysts were designated as 40CeTiOx-A, 60CeTiOx-A, 40CeTiOx-B and 60CeTiOx-B. The performances of fresh and used catalysts for selective catalytic reduction(SCR) of NO with NH3 as the reductant were investigated. The catalysts were also characterized using X-ray diffraction(XRD), X-ray fluorescence spectra(XRF), Brunner emmet teller(BET), H2-temperature programmed reduction(H2-TPR), X-ray photoelectron spectra(XPS), NH3-temperature programmed desorption(NH3-TPD) and SO2-temperature programmed desorption(SO2-TPD) techniques. The results indicated that the NH3-SCR activity, SO2 and H2O resistance over the CeTiOx-A catalysts were better than over the CeTiOx-B samples. The reasons for this phenomenon are that CeTiOx-A catalysts possess larger specific surface area and pore volume than CeTiOx-B catalysts. Besides, CeTiOx-A catalysts have plenty of Ce3+ and the surface adsorbed oxygen, which would benefit the adsorption and activation of NO. Furthermore, CeTiOx-A catalysts also have numerous strong Lewis acid sites, which lead to the increasing adsorption of NH3. Therefore, the NH3-SCR reaction rate and the NO conversion of CeTiOx-A catalysts was improved.
