Unveiling the significant promoting effect of SO2 on Ir/SiO2 catalyst for the CO-SCR of NOx in the presence of O2
Selective catalytic reduction of NO x by CO (CO-SCR) in the presence of O 2 is challenging because in this process CO is prone to being oxidized by O 2 , thus inhibiting NO x reduction by CO. Furthermore, SO 2 typically leads to the deactivation of the CO-SCR catalyst. Herein, a significant promoting effect of SO 2 on Ir/SiO 2 catalyst for the CO-SCR of NO x in the presence of O 2 is reported. In-situ X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (XAFS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis showed that SO 2 does not affect the chemical nature of Ir 0 under reaction conditions. However, SO 2 can be oxidized to sulfate and deposit on the catalyst surface. In situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) analysis demonstrated that the presence of SO 2 can inhibit the CO + O 2 reaction, thus leaving more CO available to reduce NO x over the active Ir 0 sites. As a result, the reduction of NO x is remarkably promoted even in the presence of O 2 and SO 2 .
