This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nitrogen oxides, NOx (NO+NO2), are considered significant air pollutants. Selective catalytic reduction of NOx with NH3 (NH3-SCR) is a leading technology candidate for NOx emissions control for diesel engine vehicles. Recently, the Cu-exchanged chabazite framework type zeolite with small pores, such as SAPO-34 and SSZ-13, has received a great deal of attention due to exceptional hydrothermal durability and enhanced SCR activity. I have carried out a systematic study over both Cu-SAPO-34 and Cu-SSZ-13 catalysts to elucidate the reaction mechanisms, acid properties, Cu structures, active centers and deactivation modes. First, the intrinsic mechanism of the SCR reaction over a Cu-exchanged SAPO-34 catalyst at low temperature was studied by in-situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS), coupled with a mass spectrometer to measure inlet and outlet gas concentrations. The evolution of the surface intermediates, as well as the reactivity of NH3 with surface NOx species and NOx with surface NH3 species, was evaluated. Second, a series of SAPO-34 catalysts with various Cu loadings (ranging 0.7-3.0 wt%) was prepared by a solid state ion exchange method (SSIE). The acid properties as well as the Cu structures were characterized by XRD, NH3-TPD, UV-vis, DRIFTS and H2-TPR. Third, a SSIE method was developed to synthesize Cu-SSZ-13 catalysts with excellent NH3-SCR performance and durable hydrothermal stability. After the SSIE process, the SSZ framework structure and surface area was maintained. DRIFTS and NH3-TPD experiments provide evidence that Cu ions were successfully exchanged with Brønsted acid protons in the pores. Fourth, the hydrothermal stability of Cu-SAPO-34 and Cu-SSZ-13 was studied. Their different evolutions of zeolite framework, acidity and Cu structure during the hydrothermal aging were probed by XRD, DRIFTS and NH3-TPD. The results suggest that Cu-SAPO-34 is more resistant to hydrothermal aging in comparison to Cu-SSZ-13. Last, the SO2 poisoning effect over Cu-SAPO-34 catalyst was investigated by using in-situ DRIFTS combined with temperature programmed desorption (TPD) experiments. It was found that the low temperature deactivation mechanism involved the formation of ammonium sulfate species as well as the competitive adsorption SO2 with NOx.

This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We computationally investigate the mechanism of the reduction half-cycle of the selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides with ammonia. We compare both Fe- and Cu-exchanged zeolite catalysts and aim at exploring all accessible reaction pathways. From our calculations, a comprehensive picture emerges that unifies several previous mechanistic proposals. We find that both for Fe and for Cu catalysts different reaction pathways are feasible but some of the possible reaction pathways differ in these two cases. Our computational results provide a basis for the interpretation of in situ spectroscopic investigations that can possibly distinguish the different mechanistic pathways.

This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seven first row transition metals were deposited on various commercial TiO2, SiO2, and Al2 O3 supports to create mono- and bimetallic catalysts that were compared in the selective catalytic reduction of nitric oxide using ammonia at low temperatures ranging from 373-523 K. The catalyst with the highest activity both in the absence and presence of water in the feed was 20 wt.% Mn/Hombikat TiO2 synthesized from a nitrate precursor and calcined below 673 K. Under those conditions, it was capable of achieving 100% NO conversion at 393 K. Numerous surface characterization techniques were used to identify the surface properties that result in highly active and selective low temperature SCR catalysts. The deposition of manganese as MnO2, the ease of reducibility of the metal oxide, and the symmetric deformation of ammonia coordinated to Lewis acid sites at 1167 cm−1, were all found to be important for good catalytic performance. No synergistic effects were observed from combinations of the three most active transition metals. However, MnO x -NiO/TiO2 had an extended lifetime relative to MnO x /TiO2 in feeds containing SO2 . The extensive data collected from in-situ FTIR experiments in the presence of NO and NH 3 were used to propose a reaction mechanism for MnO x /TiO2 that begins with the coordination of NH3 over Mn4 species and proceeds through the formation of bridged nitrates. A combination of potentiometric titrations and UV/Vis spectroscopy were used to quantify the reduction of V5 to V4 after the addition of oxalic acid as the solution is aged. After approximately four hours, the aging vanadium oxalate solution reaches steady state, and the final distribution of the vanadium present is 89% V+4 and 11% V+5 . TiO2 supported monolayer catalysts synthesized from the aged (V+4) vanadium oxalate solution consistently outperformed catalysts made from freshly prepared (V+5) vanadium oxalate solutions. Surface characterization revealed that surface acid sites increase in strength and vanadia reduces more easily in catalysts synthesized from aged vanadium oxalate solutions, which enhances reaction mechanism depends upon acid sites and redox operation.

This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx with NH3 is considered to be the most promising technique for the efficient reduction of highly detrimental NOx (to N2) emitted from diesel engine vehicles. Amongst the various catalysts available for SCR, Fe- and Cu-zeolite catalysts are found to be highly stable and efficient towards maximum NOx reduction over a wide temperature range. Cu-zeolites are more active at low temperatures ( 350 oC) while Fe-zeolites are more active at high temperatures ( 400 oC). We carried out a comprehensive experimental and kinetic modeling study of key SCR reactions on Fe- and Cu-zeolite catalysts and present a detailed understanding of mass transfer limitations and kinetics and mechanistic aspects of various SCR reactions on these catalysts. Experiments carried out on monolith catalysts having different washcoat loadings, washcoat thicknesses and lengths indicate the presence of washcoat (or pore) diffusion limitations at intermediate to high temperature range in all the SCR reactions. A detailed analysis of the effect of temperature on the transitions between various controlling regimes (kinetic, washcoat diffusion and external mass transfer) is presented. Agreement in the differential kinetics studies of NO oxidation and standard SCR (NO + O2 + NH3) reactions indicates NO oxidation is the rate determining step for standard SCR. A detailed kinetic model capturing key features of all the SCR reactions is developed. This model accurately predicts the experimentally observed NOx conversions over a wide temperature range and different feed conditions. Finally, a systematic study of various SCR reactions is carried out on a combined system of Fe- and Cu-zeolite monolithic catalysts to determine if a high NOx conversion could be sustained over a wider temperature range than with individual Fe- and Cu-zeolite catalysts. Amongst various configurations, a dual-layer catalyst with a thin Fe-zeolite layer on top of a thick Cu-zeolite layer resulted in a very high NOx removal efficiency over a broad temperature range of practical interest. The kinetic model accurately captures the experimental data with a combined system of Fe- and Cu-zeolite catalysts and provides further insights into the catalyst arrangements for maximum NOx reduction efficiency.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A two-stage system for the catalytic reduction of NO from lean-burn natural gas reciprocating engine exhaust is investigated. Each of the two stages uses a distinct catalyst. The first stage is oxidation of NO to NO{sub 2} and the second stage is reduction of NO{sub 2} to N{sub 2} with a hydrocarbon. The central idea is that since NO{sub 2} is a more easily reduced species than NO, it should be better able to compete with oxygen for the combustion reaction of hydrocarbon, which is a challenge in lean conditions. Early work focused on demonstrating that the N{sub 2} yield obtained when NO{sub 2} was reduced was greater than when NO was reduced. NO{sub 2} reduction catalysts were designed and silver supported on alumina (Ag/Al{sub 2}O{sub 3}) was found to be quite active, able to achieve 95% N{sub 2} yield in 10% O{sub 2} using propane as the reducing agent. The design of a catalyst for NO oxidation was also investigated, and a Co/TiO{sub 2} catalyst prepared by sol-gel was shown to have high activity for the reaction, able to reach equilibrium conversion of 80% at 300 C at GHSV of 50,000h{sup -1}. After it was shown that NO{sub 2} could be more easily reduced to N{sub 2} than NO, the focus shifted on developing a catalyst that could use methane as the reducing agent. The Ag/Al{sub 2}O{sub 3} catalyst was tested and found to be inactive for NOx reduction with methane. Through iterative catalyst design, a palladium-based catalyst on a sulfated-zirconia support (Pd/SZ) was synthesized and shown to be able to selectively reduce NO{sub 2} in lean conditions using methane. Development of catalysts for the oxidation reaction also continued and higher activity, as well as stability in 10% water, was observed on a Co/ZrO{sub 2} catalyst, which reached equilibrium conversion of 94% at 250 C at the same GHSV. The Co/ZrO{sub 2} catalyst was also found to be extremely active for oxidation of CO, ethane, and propane, which could potential eliminate the need for any separate oxidation catalyst. At every stage, catalyst synthesis was guided by the insights gained through detailed characterization of the catalysts using many surface and bulk analysis techniques such as X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Temperature-programmed Reduction, Temperature programmed Desorption, and Diffuse Reflectance InfraRed Fourier Transform Spectroscopy as well as steady state reaction experiments. Once active catalysts for each stage had been developed, a physical mixture of the two catalysts was tested for the reduction of NO with methane in lean conditions. These experiments using a mixture of the catalysts produced N2 yields as high as 90%. In the presence of 10% water, the catalyst mixture produced 75% N{sub 2} yield, without any optimization. The dual catalyst system developed has the potential to be implemented in lean-burn natural gas engines for reducing NOx in lean exhaust as well as eliminating CO and unburned hydrocarbons without any fuel penalty or any system modifications. If funding continues, future work will focus on improving the hydrothermal stability of the system to bring the technology closer to application.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Novel bifunctional catalysts combining two active phases, typically Cu-ZSM-5 and a modifier, were prepared and tested for the selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides using propylene in order to overcome the hindering effects of water typically seen for single-phase catalysts such as Cu-ZSM-5. The catalysts were made by typical preparation techniques, but parameters could be varied to influence the catalyst. The physical characterization of the materials showed that the modification phase was added strictly to the external surface of the zeolite without hindering any internal surface area. Chemical characterization by temperature programmed reactions, DRIFTS and x-ray absorption spectroscopy indicated strong interaction between the two phases, primarily producing materials that exhibited lower reduction temperatures. Two improvements in NOx reduction activity (1000 ppm NO, 1000 ppm C3H6, 2% O2, 30,000 hr-1 GHSV) were seen for these catalysts compared with Cu- ZSM-5: a lower temperature of maximum NOx conversion activity (as low at 250 C), and an enhancement of activity when water was present in the system. The use of a second phase provides a way to further tune the properties of the catalyst in order to achieve mechanistic conditions necessary to maximize NOx remediation.
