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.

Bimetallic W a CeO x (a = 0.06, 0.12, 0.18, 0.24) catalysts were synthesized for selective catalytic reduction of NO x with NH 3 (NH 3 -SCR). The influences of W on structure, activity and surface properties were investigated by XRF, XRD, Raman, TEM, N 2 adsorption-desorption, H 2 -TPR, O 2 /NH 3 /SO 2 -TPD, XPS, and in-situ DRIFTS. The characterization results show that the W/Ce ratio has a great effect on the NH 3 -SCR activity. The different catalytic activities of W a CeO x are mainly attributed to the acidity change, especially the increase of B-acid content plays a major role in enhancing low temperature activity. W 0.18 CeO x exhibits excellent low-temperature NH 3 -SCR activity, SO 2 /H 2 O resistance and N 2 selectivity with a broad activity window (190–490 °C) with 5%H 2 O. Moreover, good activity window (235–460 °C) can be maintained even the catalyst treated with 5% H 2 O at 800 °C for 12 h, showing especial hydrothermal stability. Thus, it can be summarized that W 0.18 CeO x is regarded as outstanding catalyst for low-temperature NH 3 -SCR of NO.

Manganese oxides (MnO x ) catalysts are promising for low-temperature ammonia-selective catalytic reduction (NH₃-SCR), however, the limited N₂ selectivity and the narrow operational temperature range remain challenges. To address these issues, we developed a method involving impregnation doping and high-temperature calcination to hybridize Mn₂O₃ with iron lattice and oxide. This hybrid catalyst maintains a NO x conversion rate above 90% within the broad temperature window of 175–300 °C, while achieving N₂ selectivity above 99%. The as prepared Fe-Mn (0.15) exhibits spherical morphology with Fe and Mn uniformly distributed. Through XPS, XAFS, H₂-TPR, NH₃-TPD and catalytic activity tests, we verified that lattice iron doping slightly reduces the reducibility of the catalyst and enhances low-temperature activity (100–200 °C) by increasing Lewis acid sites. Meanwhile, the Fe₂O₃ domains promote high-temperature performance (200–300 °C) by enriching surface oxygen species and Bronsted acid sites. These synergistic effect regulates both the acidic and redox properties of the catalyst, facilitating NH 3 activation while suppressing over-oxidation, leading to superior NH 3 -SCR performance. Furthermore, in situ DRIFTS measurements confirmed that the reaction proceeds predominantly via a Langmuir-Hinshelwood (L-H) mechanism. This work reveals the synergistic effects of Fe lattice doping and Fe₂O₃ composite on MnO x , offering new insights for developing advanced low-temperature catalysts. Graphical

The development of novel low-temperature selective catalytic reduction (SCR) denitrification catalysts is a crucial research direction for reducing pollution and carbon emissions. Although V2O5-MoO3/TiO2 catalysts have been widely used in commercial applications, achieving effective SCR denitrification for low-temperature flue gases remains a significant challenge. In this study, the catalytic efficiency of the catalysts was systematically investigated and optimized by constructing Pearson linear correlation coefficient models between catalytic activity and different pore structures, substrate crystal planes, and active site components and properties, etc. Through comprehensive characterizations and experiments, anatase TiO2 loaded with 3% V2O5 and 10% MoO3 was developed and demonstrated excellent catalytic activity and stability even in high sulfur content and low-temperature environments. The catalyst was deployed in a pilot plant for over two years, consistently achieving a monthly average denitrification efficiency of over 67% and maintaining an outlet NOx concentration below 50 mg/Nm³. This study provides a robust and efficient low-temperature catalyst for SCR denitrification and offers valuable insights for future catalyst optimization.

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.

A series of Mn−Fe−Ce−Ox/γ-Al2O3nanocatalysts were synthesized with different Mn/Fe ratios for the catalytic oxidation of NO into NO2and the catalytic elimination of NOxvia fast selective catalytic reduction (SCR) reaction. The effects of Mn/Fe ratio on the physicochemical properties of the samples were analyzed by means of various techniques including N2adsorption, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), H2-temperature-programmed reduction (TPR), NH3-temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) and NO-TPD, meanwhile, their catalytic performance was also evaluated and compared. Multiple characterizations revealed that the catalytic performance was highly dependent on the phase composition. The Mn15Fe15−Ce/Al sample with the Mn/Fe molar ratio of 1.0 presented the optimal structure characteristic among all tested samples, with the largest surface area, increased active components distributions, the reduced crystallinity and diminished particle sizes. In the meantime, the ratios of Mn4+/Mnn+, Fe2+/Fen+and Ce3+/Cen+in Mn15Fe15−Ce/Al samples were improved, which could enhance the redox capacity and increase the quantity of chemisorbed oxygen and oxygen vacancy, thus facilitating NO oxidation into NO2and eventually promoting the fast SCR reaction. In accord with the structure results, the Mn15Fe15−Ce/Al sample exhibited the highest NO oxidation rate of 64.2% at 350 °C and the broadest temperature window of 75–350 °C with the NOxconversion >90%. Based on the structure–activity relationship discussion, the catalytic mechanism over the Mn−Fe−Ce ternary components supported byγ-Al2O3were proposed. Overall, it was believed that the optimization of Mn/Fe ratio in Mn−Fe−Ce/Al nanocatalyst was an extremely effective method to improve the structure–activity relationships for NO pre-oxidation and the fast SCR reaction.

The occurrence of NH 3 -SCR (selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH 3 ) reaction on catalyst surface typically requires acid and redox sites. However, the role of acid-redox interaction on NH 3 -SCR performance is still obscure due to complex acidities and entangled acid-redox sites. Herein, three types of model Ce 2 (SO 4 ) 3 -CeO 2 catalysts with distinct interfaces are constructed to reveal the effect of acid-redox interaction on NH 3 -SCR performance. That is, SO 4 2- /CeO 2 -VS (vapor sulfation of ceria) with strong acid-redox interfacial contact, SO 4 2- /CeO 2 -WI (wet impregnation), and SO 4 2- /CeO 2 -SG (solid grinding) with limited interfaces. It is found the redox property is significantly disturbed as a result of the electron-withdrawing effect from the sulfate. Theoretical result unravels that the introduction of Ce 2 (SO 4 ) 3 retards the oxygen vacancy formation over CeO 2 . Due to restricted interfaces in SO 4 2- /CeO 2 -SG, the negative influence from acid sites is greatly alleviated. Further mechanism study discloses the weakened acid-redox interaction actually changes the nature of surface NO x species, resulting in the generation of reactive species (*O-N-O* and cis -N 2 O 2 2- ) and the promotion of surface reaction via Langmuir-Hinshelwood (L-H) mechanism.

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 series of MOx–Cr2O3–La2O3/TiO2–N (M = Cu, Fe, Ce) catalysts with nitrogen doping were prepared via the impregnation method. Comparing the low-temperature NH3-SCR activity of the catalysts, CeCrLa/Ti–N (xCeO2–yCr2O3–zLa2O3/TiO2–N) exhibited the best catalytic performance (NO conversion approaching 100% at 220–460 °C). The physico-chemical properties of the catalysts were characterized by XRD, BET, SEM, XPS, H2-TPR, NH3-TPD and in situ DRIFTS. From the XRD and SEM results, N doping affects the crystalline growth of anatase TiO2 and MOx (M = Cu, Fe, Ce, Cr, La) which were well dispersed over the support. Moreover, the doping of N promotes the increase of the Cr6+/Cr ratio and Ce3+/Ce ratio, and the surface chemical adsorption oxygen content, which suggested the improvement of the redox properties of the catalyst. And the surface acid content of the catalyst increased with the doping of N, which is related to CeCrLa/TiO2–N having the best catalytic activity at high temperature. Therefore, the CeCrLa/TiO2–N catalyst exhibited the best NH3-SCR performance and the redox performance of the catalysts is the main factor affecting their activity. Furthermore, in situ DRIFTS analysis indicates that Lewis-acid sites are the main adsorption sites for ammonia onto CeCrLa/TiO2–N and the catalyst mainly follows the L–H mechanism.

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.

This study focuses on investigating the influence of Si/Al ratio on the performance of hydrothermally aged Cu/SSZ-13 catalysts prepared by in situ hydrothermal synthesis method. It was found that NH 3 -SCR performance and hydrothermal stability of Cu/SSZ-13 decreased with increasing Si/Al ratio. Fresh and hydrothermally aged Cu/SSZ-13 with Si/Al ratio of 6.5 showed the best SCR activity and N 2 selectivity in a broad temperature of 200–500 °C, in which more than 90% NO x was reduced with superior N 2 selectivity above 95%. The effect of Si/Al ratio on the properties of the physicochemical structure, the change of acidity intensity, and Cu species migration or transformation of the fresh and aged Cu/SSZ-13 catalysts were comprehensively characterized by NH 3 -TPO, NH 3 -TPD, H 2 -TPR, N 2 physisorption, XRD, ICP-AES, and XPS. The increase of the surface CuO species, the decrease of the amount of Cu 2+ in active sites, the chemisorption NH 3 species, the specific surface area, the total pore volume, and the increase of average pore diameter, may be the main reasons for performance deterioration over high-Si/Al-ratio catalysts after hydrothermal aging. Furthermore, in situ DRIFTS indicate that, with the increasing Si/Al ratio, the zeolitic structure was easy to collapse, and that the surface acid sites, the active copper species, as well as the adsorbed surface nitrate, decreased after hydrothermally aged. After hydrothermal aging, the amount of isolated Cu 2+ decreased, and more CuO species were aggregated, mainly coming from the conversion of the unstable isolated Cu 2+ species in D6R or CHA cages. The decrease of isolated Cu 2+ and CuO species aggregation were significant in Cu/SSZ-13 with high Si/Al ratios. The CuO leaded to the instability of the SSZ-13 skeleton structure and NH 3 oxidation promotion, resulting in catalysts deactivation.
