Book Selective Catalytic Reduction of NOx by NH3  NH3 SCR  in Small Pore Cu exchanged Chabazite  CHA  Catalysts

Download or read book Selective Catalytic Reduction of NOx by NH3 NH3 SCR in Small Pore Cu exchanged Chabazite CHA Catalysts written by Di Wang and published by . 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.

Book Atlas of Zeolite Framework Types

Download or read book Atlas of Zeolite Framework Types written by Ch. Baerlocher and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2007-09-12 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zeolite scientists, whether they are working in synthesis, catalysis, characterization or application development, use the Atlas of Zeolite Framework Types as a reference. It describes the main features of all of the confirmed zeolite framework structures, and gives references to the relevant primary structural literature. Since the last edition 34 more framwork types have been approved and are described in this new edition. A further new feature will be that characteristic building units will be listed for each of the framework types.Zeolites and their analogs are used as desiccants, as water softeners, as shape-selective acid catalysts, as molecular sieves, as concentrators of radioactive isotopes, as blood clotting agents, and even as additives to animal feeds. Recently, their suitability as hosts for nanometer spacing of atomic clusters has also been demonstrated. These diverse applications are a reflection of the fascinating structures of these microporous materials. Each time a new zeolite framework structure is reported, it is examined by the Structure Commission of the International Zeolite Association (IZA-SC), and if it is found to be unique and to conform to the IZA-SC's definition of a zeolite, it is assigned a 3-letter framework type code. This code is part of the official IUPAC nomenclature for microporous materials. The Atlas of Zeolite Framework Types is essentially a compilation of data for each of these confirmed framework types. These data include a stereo drawing showing the framework connectivity, features that characterize the idealized framework structure, a list of materials with this framework type, information on the type material that was used to establish the framework type, and stereo drawings of the pore openings of the type material. - Clear stereo drawings of each of the framework types - Description of the features of the framework type, allowing readers to quickly see if the framework type is suitable to their needs - References to isotypic materials, readers can quickly identify related materials and consult the appropriate reference

Book Experimental and Kinetic Modeling Studies of Selective Catalytic Reduction of NOx with NH3 on Fe  and Cu Zeolite Monolithic Catalysts

Download or read book Experimental and Kinetic Modeling Studies of Selective Catalytic Reduction of NOx with NH3 on Fe and Cu Zeolite Monolithic Catalysts written by Pranit Subhash Metkar and published by . 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.

Book Computational Insights Into the Mechanism of the Selective Catalytic Reduction of NOx  Fe  Versus Cu Exchanged Zeolite Catalysts

Download or read book Computational Insights Into the Mechanism of the Selective Catalytic Reduction of NOx Fe Versus Cu Exchanged Zeolite Catalysts written by Julian Rudolph and published by . 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.

Book Selective Catalytic Reduction of NOx

Download or read book Selective Catalytic Reduction of NOx written by Oliver Kröcher and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most efficient process to reduce NOx emissions from lean exhaust gases, selective catalytic reduction (SCR) with ammonia, has undergone tremendous development over the past decades. Originally only applied in stationary power plants and industrial installations, SCR systems are now installed in millions of mobile diesel engines, ranging from off-road machineries, to heavy-duty and light-duty trucks and passenger cars, to locomotives and ships. All of these applications involve specific challenges due to tighter emission limits, new internal combustion engine technologies, or alternative fuels. Three review articles and 14 research articles in this book describe recent results and research trends of various aspects of the SCR process. Reaction engineering aspects, such as the proper dosage of ammonia or urea, respectively, are as important as further developments of the different SCR catalysts, by deepening the understanding of their functionality or by systematic improvements of their properties, such as low-temperature activity, selectivity, or poisoning-resistance. Another covered aspect is cost reduction through the use of cheaper base materials for the production is active and stable SCR catalysts. Finally, research efforts are reported to develop SCR processes with different reducing agents, which would open doors to new applications in the future. The range of topics addressed in this book will stimulate the reader's interest as well as provide a valuable source of information for researchers in academia and industry.

Book Selective Catalytic Reduction of NOX by NH3 for Diesel Exhaust Aftertreatment

Download or read book Selective Catalytic Reduction of NOX by NH3 for Diesel Exhaust Aftertreatment written by Christopher Sokolowski and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The increasing price of liquid fuels and an increased focus on fuel efficiency has driven vehicle engine manufacturers toward diesel and other lean burn engines at the cost of increased emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOX), which contribute to pollution such as smog, ground level ozone, and acid deposition. Within the past thirty years, increasingly stringent NOX emission standards have forced engine manufacturers to develop novel ways to reduce these emissions. With the implementation of the latest American and European NOX emission standards, Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) has become the most prominent NOX reduction method in lean-burn engines.In the present work, a method is developed to test the performance of commercial SCR catalyst coated monoliths and probe the deactivation mechanisms. A monolith testing apparatus is constructed for these purposes. Necessary design features included a programmable gas mixing system, a steam generator, a temperature control system, and an analysis system based upon Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy. It is found that a high flow rate of carrier gas as well as a method to generate a water mist and prevent dripping is essential to ensure a stable supply of steam and repeatable results.Important SCR reactions, namely the standard, fast, and slow SCR reactions as well as NH3 adsorption and performance of a zeolite catalyst coated monolith were investigated at three temperatures -- 250 and 300 °C representing engine operation at normal operating conditions and 400 °C representing engine operation at high load. The amount of NH3 adsorbed decreased with temperature in line with previous studies while NOX reduction performance increased with higher temperatures at all inlet compositions tested. A transient drop in NO conversion performance was observed upon introduction of NH3 without the presence of NO2 consistent with previous studies suggesting an NH3 inhibition mechanism. When supplied with 1:1 and 1:3 ratios of NO:NO2 at 250 °C, the catalyst reduced more NOX than NH3 suggesting that part of the NOX reduction was proceeding through an ammonium nitrate intermediate and generating nitric acid. In addition, NH3 oxidation into N2O was prevalent at 300°C in an excess of NO2. The SCR reaction results indicate that both transient effects and side reactions play an important role in an NH3 SCR system, particularly one that is designed to operate under continuously changing conditions.Catalyst aging mechanisms were investigated by comparing catalytic performance, material structure, and surface composition of a new and a used zeolite catalyst monolith for the fast SCR reaction. Physical analysis of the catalyst monoliths through X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) with Energy-Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS) indicated four aging mechanisms. Both the new and used catalyst monoliths performed at least 95% NOX reduction in the fast reaction at all temperatures tested. Despite the similar NOX reduction performance, the used catalyst monolith exhibited lower NO oxidation performance, increased NH3 oxidation, and a lower quantity of adsorbed NH3 compared to the new catalyst monolith. Dealumination is likely the primary cause of the used catalyst monolith's lower NOX reduction performance with promoter metal deactivation, poisoning by sulfur and phosphorous, and mechanical failure of the catalyst coating on the monolith also contributing to the decreased performance. The results do not find evidence of carbon coking. This investigation into catalyst aging mechanisms confirms the efficacy of the commercial SCR catalyst monolith over long time periods.
