Combination of Pt@CeO2/MCM-56 and CeO2-CuO/MCM-56 to purify the exhaust emissions from diesel vehicles
Pt@CeO 2 /MCM-56 (PCM) and CeO 2 -CuO (9:1)/MCM-56 (CCM) were combined to purify the exhaust emissions from diesel vehicles in three configuration statuses, defined as configuration A—where CCM stays above PCM, configuration B—where PCM stays above CCM, and configuration C—where CCM mixes with PCM homogeneously in loose contact. Among these combined catalysts, the configuration A is most favorable for the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) reaction, with >80% NO x conversion obtained at the temperature range of 150–550 °C and gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) of 240,000 ml g −1 h −1 . NH 3 -TPD, H 2- TPR and NH 3 conversion measurements demonstrated that NH 3 can be selectively used to reduce NO x in the configuration A but is over-oxidized if the reaction is operated in configuration B or configuration C status, deteriorating the deNO x activity at temperature above 250 °C. Hence, configuration A not only takes advantage but also overcomes the shortcomings of PCM and CCM, leading to high NO x conversion and N 2 selectivity. A significant decrease in the onset temperature of soot combustion was also observed in this research.
