Catalytic activity and hydrothermal stability are both crucial for the application of the selective catalytic reduction of NO x with NH 3 (NH 3 -SCR catalyst) in diesel vehicles. In this study, a tin (Sn)-modified Ce–Nb mixed-oxide catalyst was synthesized as an NH 3 -SCR catalyst for NO x emission control. After the introduction of Sn, both the NH 3 -SCR activity and the hydrothermal stability of the catalyst were remarkably promoted. Even after hydrothermal aging at 1000 °C, the developed Ce 1 Sn 2 Nb 1 O x catalyst achieved more than 90% NO x conversion at 325–500 °C. Various methods, including N 2 -physisorption, X-ray diffraction, in-situ high-temperature X-ray diffraction, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray absorption fine-structure spectroscopy, temperature-programmed reduction of hydrogen, temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia, and density functional theory calculations were used to investigate the promotional effects induced by the Sn species. The characterization results showed that the addition of Sn not only promoted the formation of the Ce–Nb active phase but also improved its thermal stability, contributing to the excellent NH 3 -SCR performance and hydrothermal stability. This study provides an excellent sintering-resistance catalyst for the application of diesel engine NO x emission control.

The strategy of constructing catalytic membrane has a significant influence on its structure and performance. In this work, Co 3 O 4 -C x @SiO 2 nanofiber membranes (NFMs) were fabricated by an in-situ growth–pyrolysis–oxidation strategy. The Co 3 O 4 -C x catalyst derived from ZIF-67 was wrapped around nanofibers, which helps to maintain a stable membrane structure, then suppressing the reduction of gas permeability. Among the Co 3 O 4 -C x catalyst, the carbon skeleton can prevent the agglomeration of Co 3 O 4 nanoparticles, obtaining an ultra-fine Co 3 O 4 nanoparticles with high dispersibility, redox property and surface area. The obtained Co 3 O 4 -C 300 @SiO 2 NFM exhibits outstanding ammonia selective catalytic reduction (NH 3 -SCR) denitrification activity (T 90 = 225 °C at a GHSV of 77,000 h −1 ). The effect of catalyst loading on PM 2.5 filtration performance of SiO 2 NFM was also tested. Co 3 O 4 -C 300 @SiO 2 NFM has higher filtration efficiency (99.99%) than SiO 2 NFM at a lower pressure drop of 58 Pa, which suggests that catalyst loading via our method can improve the filtration performance of SiO 2 NFM. This work might provide a universal strategy for the design and preparation of highly efficient catalytic membrane.

An energy-saving catalyst 4%Fe/Ce-Mn-TiO 2 was prepared via a simple one-step impregnation-annealing process and used as a denitration catalyst at low temperature (≤180 °C) and high water content (∼20%). The results show that 4%Fe/Ce-Mn-TiO 2 catalyst exhibits good low-temperature catalytic activity and water resistance attributed to its highly dispersed metal oxide species, more surface-adsorbed oxygen and high stability of particles. The denitrification efficiencies of 4%Fe/Ce-Mn-TiO 2 catalyst are 90% (5% H 2 O) and 70% (20% H 2 O) at 170 ℃ respectively, which are superior to the commercial vanadium catalyst in service usually needs heating up to 220 ℃.

Cu/SAPO-34 catalysts have been widely used for the reduction of NOx from diesel exhaust by ammonia-selective catalytic reduction (SCR). Sulfur poisoning remains a challenge for Cu/SAPO-34 catalysts in NH3–SCR, restricting its application. In this study, Cu/SAPO-34 samples containing a mixture of Cu species comprising isolated Cu2+ located in the 6MR, Cu(OH)+ in 8MR, CuO clusters/nanoparticles, and Cu+ species were prepared. The Cu speciation during SO2 and hydrothermal aging of Cu/SAPO-34 SCR catalysts was subsequently studied. While hydrothermal aging had little effect on catalytic activity, the sulfur-aged sample exhibited deterioration in NH3–SCR activity over the temperature range of 100–575 °C. The breakage and collapse of the zeotype framework and chemical deactivation of the Cu/SAPO-34 catalyst after exposure to SO2 and H2O took place. A combination of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and TGA-DT-DSC revealed the presence of ammonium bisulfate, copper bisulfate/sulfate, aluminum sulfate, and sulfuric acid after SO2 and H2O copoisoning under SCR conditions. Furthermore, Cu(OH)+ tended to migrate to form isolated Cu2+ and Cu+, as well as agglomerate to form CuO particles. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed that SO2 and O2 could readily be absorbed by CuO particles to form stable copper bisulfate/sulfate species with the following order of preference: CuO > Cu+ > Cu2+ > Cu(OH)+. In contrast, Cu(OH)+ was less prone to be poisoned by easily releasing SO3 than other Cu species sites.

Supported MnFeOx catalysts have been prepared using Al2O3 as the substrate and were investigated for NH3-SCR. The 20% MnFe/Al2O3 catalyst removed over 80% of NOx with an N2 selectivity exceeding 90% at temperatures between 80 and 340 °C. The results from the various characterization studies indicated that the increased activity of MnFe/Al2O3 catalysts can be primarily linked to the increased chemisorbed oxygen species and Fe3+ concentrations, greater reducibility, and higher adsorption capacity for NH3. These characteristics are the outcome of the strong interaction, larger specific surface, and abundant acidic sites. Additionally, in situ DRIFTS analysis of the reaction mechanism revealed that the E–R and L–H mechanisms were responsible for the NH3-SCR reaction over the 20% MnFe/Al2O3 catalyst.

A series of Sm- and/or Zr-doped MnO x -TiO 2 catalysts were prepared, and the catalysts exhibited better N 2 selectivity and SO 2 resistance than the undoped MnO x -TiO 2 catalyst for the selective catalytic reduction of NO by NH 3 (NH 3 -SCR). The reasons for the good N 2 selectivity and SO 2 resistance of the catalysts were proposed. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) combined with density functional theory (DFT) calculations suggested that electron transfer between the manganese and samarium species by Mn 4+ + Sm 2+ ↔ Mn 3+ + Sm 3+ redox cycles occurred in the Sm-containing catalysts. Furthermore, electron transfer from Sm 2+ to Mn 4+ suppressed electron transfer from NH 3 to Mn 4+ , inhibiting the formation of NH 2 or NH. Thus, the pathway for NH generation was removed, and the reaction of 2NH + 4NO → 3N 2 O + H 2 O was prevented. Consequently, the N 2 selectivity of the NH 3 -SCR reaction was enhanced. In situ diffused reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy ( in situ DRIFTS) combined with thermogravimetry, differential scanning calorimetry and mass spectrometry (TG-DSC-MS) results revealed that the deposition rate of sulfate species decreases after Sm doping, which was also attributed to the suppressed electron transfer from SO 2 to Mn 4+ , i.e., the oxidation of SO 2 to SO 3 . Thus, the catalysts exhibited better SO 2 resistance.

Owing to the different reaction properties and deactivation mechanisms caused by the structural discrepancy of monolithic catalysts, abundant scientific results of powder or granular NH 3 -SCR catalysts have still not sufficiently robustly applied in recent years. Furthermore, minimal research has been focused on monolithic catalysts. As a result, this work prepared monolithic Mn-Fe-Ce/Al 2 O 3 catalysts by active component impregnation (ACI-Mn-Fe-Ce/Al 2 O 3 ) and precursor impregnation methods (PI-Mn-Fe-Ce/Al 2 O 3 ) and investigates the long-term SO 2 and H 2 O resistance of the catalysts. Compared with the PI-Mn-Fe-Ce/Al 2 O 3 catalyst, the monolithic ACI-Mn-Fe-Ce/Al 2 O 3 catalyst showed better performance. The catalytic activity follows a bell-shaped curve with an optimal performance at a drug loading of 5 %. The ACI-Mn-Fe-Ce/Al 2 O 3 catalyst exhibits long-term resistance to SO 2 and H 2 O and can still convert more than 70 % NO x after 168 h of SO 2 and H 2 O resistance test. Characterization of the ACI-Mn-Fe-Ce/Al 2 O 3 catalysts before and after the reaction showed that the reducibility decreased after the reaction, and more Mn 4+ was transformed into Mn 2+ to weaken the catalytic activity. However, more Fe 2+ and Ce 3+ were generated during the reaction, increasing the number of oxygen vacancies, oxygen defects, and hydroxyl-like groups, all of which would contribute to a certain extent to counteract the passivation effect of SO 2 on the catalysts. In situ DRIFTs analysis shows that the formation of surface sulfates has a minimal effect on the adsorption of NO, but it does affect the adsorption of coordinated NH 3 on Lewis acid sites. This work elucidates the deactivation details of Mn-Fe-Ce/Al 2 O 3 catalysts from the perspective of physicochemical properties, which provides a reference for the development of better low-temperature SO 2 -resistance catalysts for industrial applications.

Mn-based catalysts were believed to be promoting low temperature NH 3 -SCR catalysts for their satisfactory catalytic activity, whereas their poor SO 2 and H 2 O tolerance inhibited their applications. In this work, utilizing poor SO 2 tolerance of Mn oxides, composite catalytic systems containing Mn oxides as deSO x catalyst was designed and synthesized, which exhibited excellent low temperature NH 3 -SCR performance in the presence of SO 2 and H 2 O. The deSO x mechanism of Mn oxides was systematically investigated. In results, SO 2 was catalytic oxidized on the surface of Mn oxides. Oxidized sulfur species could flow away from Mn oxides surface through feed gas flow or form MnSO 4 . When NH 3 and H 2 O were introduced into the feed gas, the oxidized sulfur species were completely deposited as NH 4 HSO 4 instead of forming MnSO 4 . Thus, SO 2 was removed from feed gas entirely resulting in the superb low temperature NH 3 -SCR performances. This work provided a general strategy to enhance SO 2 and H 2 O tolerance of NH 3 -SCR catalysts at low temperature by removing SO 2 using NH 3 and H 2 O who existed in the exhaust gas from stationary sources.

The advancements in engine technology have led to a decrease in exhaust temperatures, hence enhancing the activity of Cu-SSZ-13 at low temperatures becomes crucial and challenging. This enhancement can be achieved using dual-phase metal oxide/Cu-SSZ-13 composite catalysts. In this work, we evaluated the comparative efficacy of Mn 3 O 4 and Mn 2 O 3 and discovered that Mn 3 O 4 exhibited a significantly superior enhancement in deNO x activity of Cu-SSZ-13 at low temperatures, achieving 95% NO x conversion at 200 °C. This is substantially higher than the conversions recorded by Mn 2 O 3 /Cu-SSZ-13 (78%) and Cu-SSZ-13 (40%). Kinetic and IR results demonstrate that Mn 3 O 4 /Cu-SSZ-13 and Mn 2 O 3 /Cu-SSZ-13 composite samples share a same low-temperature pathway, where bridged nitrates formed on the MnO x react with adsorbed on Brønsted acid sites in Cu-SSZ-13. In this reaction pathway, bridged nitrate formation is identified as the rate-determining step. The distinctive structure of Mn 3 O 4 triggers an increase in oxygen vacancies, creating a higher content of chemically adsorbed oxygen, compared to Mn 2 O 3 . Those adsorbed oxygen facilitates bridged nitrate formation. Consequently, due to the larger amount of bridged nitrate formed on Mn 3 O 4 compared to Mn 2 O 3 , the Mn 3 O 4 /Cu-SSZ-13 sample exhibits higher activity.

Volcanic rock is a natural mineral with a porous structure and rich in various metal oxides. It has been used in environmental applications such as water and soil pollution remediation as stable chemical properties and low cost. In this work, volcanic rock was used in the field of nitrogen oxide control, and the feasibility of preparing NH 3 - Selective Catalytic Reduction catalyst was evaluated. The catalyst AVR-10Mn-450 was prepared by acidification-impregnation-calcination process, and it can achieve more than 90 % denitration effect at 175 °C, 25000 h −1 . It removes nitrogen oxides through the Eley–Rideal and Langmuir–Hinshelwood pathways. AVR-10Mn-450 has the advantages of simple preparation and low cost compared with the mainstream nano-denitration catalysts. It can be applied to the pretreatment of industrial flue gas such as cement plant or glass plant, thereby extending the service life of the precious metal or nano-catalyst at the back end. This work not only realizes the high-value resource utilization of volcanic rock, but also reduces the production cost of denitration catalyst.

A direct hydrothermal synthesis strategy is developed to prepare the Cu–Fe-ZSM-5 zeolites by using the ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium dihydrate (EDTA-2Na·2H 2 O) chelated Cu 2+ and Fe 3+ precursors as metal sources. During the crystallization, the metal chelates were spontaneously embedded into the ZSM-5 crystals and subsequently transformed to the zeolites encapsulated copper and iron species after removing the chelating agent via the high-temperature calcination . Rigorous characterizations indicate that the resulted Cu 2+ /Cu + and Fe 3+ /Fe 2+ species are formed ultra-small nano-composites with an average diameter of ∼2.2 nm and highly dispersed in the ZSM-5 zeolite crystals. The acidity of the ZSM-5 zeolites is subtly modulated by the encapsulated Cu–Fe nano-composite. As expected, the as-prepared Cu–Fe-ZSM-5 exhibits outstanding catalytic performance for the selective catalytic reduction of NO x with ammonia (NH 3 -SCR) in the broad reaction temperature ranges of 220–480 °C, which is much better than the Cu–Fe/ZSM-5 prepared with the conventional wetness impregnation method. Furthermore, the resultant zeolites show high stability and good tolerance to H 2 O and SO 2 , and it is very competitive for practical application to eliminate NO x . The developed one-pot hydrothermal synthesis route by using EDTA-2Na·2H 2 O as chelating agent is very convenient and easily reproducible, providing a general guideline to design and fabricate the superior transition metal modified zeolite catalysts for NH 3 -SCR and the related reactions.

Silicoaluminophosphate (SAPO) molecular sieves possess diverse architectures and exceptional high-temperature hydrothermal stability, rendering them important acid catalysts. However, enhancing acid concentration of certain SAPO materials remains challenging, which limits their catalytic applications. Here, we report the synthesis of a series of SAPO materials using a developed SAPO precursor plus dual template (SPDT) strategy. A variety of SAPO materials characterized by high silica content and enhanced acidity, such as SAPO-34/56 intergrowths, SAPO-56, and SAPO-17, have been synthesized and thoroughly characterized using various techniques including integrated differential phase-contrast scanning transmission electron microscopy, two-dimensional solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and continuous rotation electron diffraction. The use of silica-enriched SAPO precursor combined with the flexible selection of the second template enables the crystalline phase regulation and improves the Si atoms incorporation into the framework. Notably, the synthesized SAPO-17 with abundant Si(4Al) species and unprecedentedly high acid density exhibits exceptional DeNO x activity after Cu loading, with NO x conversion exceeding 90% at 175–700 °C. This outstanding performance can be attributed to the unique ERI structure and the increased acidity of SAPO-17. This work not only presents an effective method for synthesizing SAPO molecular sieves with enhanced acidity but also offers a new perspective for expanding the active temperature range of the ammonia selective catalytic reduction reaction.
