A Novel Nano-sized Catalyst CeO2-CuO/Hollow ZSM-5 for NOx Reduction with NH3

Hollow-ZSM-5 was synthesized by a traditional hydrothermal method without alcohol, and a novel na-no-sized Ce-Cu/hollow ZSM-5 sample was prepared by conventional incipient wetness impreganation. The catalysts were characterized by TEM, SEM, XRD, NMR and N 2 adsorption-desorption. The results indicate that the hollow-ZSM-5 has a good MFI structure with large surface area. The synthesized CeO 2 -CuO/hollow ZSM-5 showed an excellent catalytic activity for NO x conversion(90% NO x conversion were obtained) in the temperature range of 340–550 °C under GHSV=480000 mL·g ‒1 ·h ‒1 due to its appropriate redox ability and acidity.
