Selective catalytic oxidation of nitrogen containing volatile organic compounds (NVOCs) is very meaningful but still remains big challenge because it is very difficult to balance the oxidation activity and N 2 selectivity of available catalysts. In order to develop excellent catalysts with high N 2 selectivity in wide temperature window ( △T ) during NVOCs oxidation, CeO 2 modified CuO/ZSM-5 catalysts with different CeO 2 addition order were prepared for diethylamine (DEA) oxidation. Detailed characterizations of catalysts such as XRD, XPS, H 2 -TPR and NH 3 -TPD were conducted, it is found that addition of CeO 2 obviously changes the geometrical and electronic states of CuO active sites in the catalyst, and CeO 2 addition order affects the Ce 3+ ratio on the catalyst surface. Promotion of CeO 2 species enables the generation of more highly active Cu species (Cu + species and finely dispersed CuO clusters) for DEA oxidation; and synergistic catalysis of the Ce 3+ species, active Cu species and acid sites in ZSM-5 leads to the high N 2 selectivity in wide temperature window ( △T ). Compared to the CeO 2 /CuO/ZSM-5 and CuO-CeO 2 /ZSM-5 catalysts, the CuO/CeO 2 /ZSM-5 catalyst exhibits moderate high oxidation activity with T 99 of 230 °C and the widest △T of 150 °C for high N 2 selectivity. Our primary results in this work provide the efficient strategy for improving catalyst employed for NVOCs selective oxidation.

Development of fuel electrodes for reversible solid oxide cells (RSOCs) is important for achieving good performance and stability under both solid oxide fuel cell and electrolysis cell operation modes. In this work, CeO2-decorated La0.43Ca0.37Ti0.94Ni0.06O3−δ (denoted as LCTN-Ce) fuel electrodes were prepared via a simple hydrothermal route, where CeO2 is uniformly decorated onto the external surface of the LCTN-Ce electrode with in situ exsolved Ni nanoparticles (NPs) after reduction treatment. The decorated CeO2 content can be regulated by adjusting the hydrothermal treatment time and precursor solution concentration. As the decorated CeO2 content increases from 0.81 to 2.05%, the conductivity of the LCTN-Ce electrode decreases while the oxygen vacancy concentration increases, comprehensively affecting the cell power output and CO2 electrolysis activity. The electrolyte-supported cell assembled with LCTN-1.46Ce cell with a moderate CeO2 content of 1.46% shows an excellent reversible electrochemical performance and RSOC stability in 50% H2/50% CO2 at 750 °C. The hydrothermal decoration provides a facile way to modify perovskite oxides, and the LCTN-Ce with in situ exsolved Ni NPs and surface-decorated CeO2 is proved to be a potential RSOC fuel electrode material.

The influence of ambient humidity on the gas-sensing characteristics of metal oxide semiconductors has been one of the greatest obstacles for gas-sensing applications. In this paper, the pure WO3 and CeO2-modified WO3 nanocubes were prepared by a simple hydrothermal method, and their gas-sensing characteristics in dry and humid atmospheres were investigated. The results show that CeO2/WO3 demonstrated excellent gas-sensing properties toward H2S with high sensitivity and high selectivity at 115 °C. Noteworthy, the humidity independence of the CeO2/WO3 increased compared to the WO3. The response retentions over the whole humidity range of the CeO2/WO3-6 and CeO2/WO3-15 sensors were 70.3, and 76%, respectively, which were much higher than the WO3 sensor (17.9%). The gas-sensing mechanism of CeO2-modified WO3 is discussed based on the gas sensitivity properties. The obtained results provide a promising route to enhance the anti-humidity properties of metal oxide semiconductor gas sensors.

Oxygen vacancies have been verified to be an important factor in the catalytic oxidation of VOCs. Herein, we report that surface-modified Co/Ce hexagonal nanosheets have excellent catalytic activity, stability, and water resistance. The introduction of cerium increases the oxygen storage capacity of the catalyst. In this work, the best catalyst (1.00 wt % Pd Co/Ce = 4/1) showed the highest catalytic activity for VOC oxidation (T90(toluene) = 160 °C, T90(benzene) = 156 °C). Combining XPS and O2-TPD data, it has been demonstrated that the introduction of cerium increases the adsorbed oxygen concentration of the catalyst. The oxidation of toluene and benzene over the 1.00 wt % Pd Co/Ce = 4/1 catalyst obeys the Langmuir–Hinshelwood (L–H) mechanism.

A series of CeO 2 modified Cu-SSZ-13 monolith catalysts were prepared by embedding CeO 2 into the washcoat of Cu-SSZ-13 monolith catalyst through solvent combustion method. These CexCu-SSZ-13 catalysts were studied in the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with NH 3 , among which the Ce2Cu-SSZ-13 catalyst exhibited the best low-temperature activity, hydrothermal stability, and sulfur resistance. The physicochemical properties of the catalysts were characterized using multiple methods. Results showed that the acidity, redox capacity, and ammonia adsorption capacity significantly enhanced after CeO 2 modification, thus leading to the high performance of Ce2Cu-SSZ-13 catalyst. Furthermore, the introduction of CeO 2 induced the fast SCR reaction by promoting the oxidation of NO to NO 2 . Analog calculation suggested that the porous structure generated via solvent combustion in the washcoat effectively increased the diffusion rate of reaction. In situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy ( in situ DRIFT) analysis showed that Brønsted acid sites were the main active center and the reaction followed Eley–Rideal mechanism.
