In this study, the de-NOx performance of Cu-based zeolite catalysts supported on topological structure (SSZ-13, BEA, ZSM-5) and loaded with different doses of copper (from 2 to 6 wt.%) was investigated. The preparation of copper-based catalysts adopted the incipient wetness impregnation method. To analyze the physicochemical properties of the catalysts, advanced techniques like BET, XRD, NH3-TPD, H2-TPR, and DRS UV-Vis were used. The performance tests suggested the 4Cu/SSZ-13 catalyst exhibited higher low-temperature activity and wider temperature window. Furthermore, compared with Mn-Cu/SSZ-13, the Ce-Cu/SSZ-13 catalysts exhibited better de-NOx performance.

The NH3-SCR activities and hydrothermal stabilities of five xCu/MCM-22 zeolites with different Cu loadings (x = 2–10 wt%) prepared by incipient wetness impregnation method were systematically investigated. The physicochemical properties of xCu/MCM-22 zeolites were analyzed by XRD, nitrogen physisorption, ICP-AES, SEM, NH3-TPD, UV-vis, H2-TPR and XPS experiments. The Cu species existing in xCu/MCM-22 are mainly isolated Cu2+, CuOx and unreducible copper species. The concentrations of both isolated Cu2+ and CuOx species in xCu/MCM-22 increase with Cu contents, but the increment of CuOx species is more distinct, especially in high Cu loadings (>4 wt%). NH3-SCR experimental results demonstrated that the activity of xCu/MCM-22 is sensitive to Cu content at low Cu loadings (≤4 wt%). When the Cu loading exceeds 4 wt%, the NH3-SCR activity of xCu/MCM-22 is irrelevant to Cu content due to the severe pore blockage effects caused by aggregated CuOx species. Among the five xCu/MCM-22 zeolites, 4Cu/MCM-22 with moderate Cu content has the best NH3-SCR performance, which displays higher than 80% NOx conversions in a wide temperature window (160–430 °C). Furthermore, the hydrothermal aging experiments (xCu/MCM-22 was treated at 750 °C for 10 h under 10% water vapor atmosphere) illustrated that all the xCu/MCM-22 zeolites exhibit high hydrothermal stability in NH3-SCR reactions.

Er-modified FeMn/TiO2 catalysts were prepared through the wet impregnation method, and their NH3-SCR activities were tested. The results showed that Er modification could obviously promote SO2 resistance of FeMn/TiO2 catalysts at a low temperature. The promoting effect and mechanism were explored in detail using various techniques, such as BET, XRD, H2-TPR, XPS, TG, and in-situ DRIFTS. The characterization results indicated that Er modification on FeMn/TiO2 catalysts could increase the Mn4+ concentration and surface chemisorbed labile oxygen ratio, which was favorable for NO oxidation to NO2, further accelerating low-temperature SCR activity through the “fast SCR” reaction. As fast SCR reaction could accelerate the consumption of adsorbed NH3 species, it would benefit to restrain the competitive adsorption of SO2 and limit the reaction between adsorbed SO2 and NH3 species. XPS results indicated that ammonium sulfates and Mn sulfates formed were found on Er-modified FeMn/TiO2 catalyst surface seemed much less than those on FeMn/TiO2 catalyst surface, suggested that Er modification was helpful for reducing the generation or deposition of sulfate salts on the catalyst surface. According to in-situ DRIFTS the results of, the presence of SO2 in feeding gas imposed a stronger impact on the NO adsorption than NH3 adsorption on Lewis acid sites of Er-modified FeMn/TiO2 catalysts, gradually making NH3-SCR reaction to proceed in E–R mechanism rather than L–H mechanism.

Supported Co–Mo nitride catalysts have been synthesized by incipient-wetness impregnation method and temperature-programmed reaction in N2-H2 mixed gases. The effect of support types, namely carbon nanotubes(CNTs), active carbon(AC), 5A zeolite and Al2O3 on the properties of the prepared catalysts for ammonia decomposition has been investigated by XRD, H2–TPR and SEM techniques. The results showed that CNTs was the optimum support for Co–Mo nitride catalyst. At 550 , NH3 conversions over CoMoNx/AC, CoMoNx/Al2O3 and CoMoNx/5A Zeolite catalysts were only 14.7%, 65.4% and 68.7%, respectively, while NH3 conversion over CoMoNx/CNTs catalyst was up to 84.4%. XRD and H2–TPR results indicated that the active species consist of CoMoO4, MoO3, γ-Mo2N and Co3Mo3N crystallites, which can be reduced at elevated temperatures at H2 atmosphere. The SEM characterization demonstrated that Co-Mo nitrides particles disperse uniformly on the CNTs.

The Co3O4/g-C3N4 hybrids are constructed via the incipient wetness impregnation method by depositing Co3O4 onto the exterior of g-C3N4, and then employed for Hg0 capture within 60–240 °C. The results show that the Co3O4/g-C3N4 hybrid with a Co3O4 content of 12 wt% performs optimally with the highest Hg0 removal efficiency of ~100% at or above 120 °C. The high performances of the Co3O4/g-C3N4 hybrids are probably attributed to the tight interfacial contact between Co3O4 and g-C3N4, with its improved electron transfer, inferring that cobalt oxide and g-C3N4 display a cooperative effect towards Hg0 removal. NO and SO2 shows a significant suppressive influence on the mercury capture performance, plausibly owing to the competing adsorption and side reactions.

Abstract We have measured NOx conversions and N2O productions over Fe-BEA and Cu-SAPO catalysts and over their sequential arrangements under Enhanced SCR conditions, resulting from the addition of an aqueous solution of ammonium nitrate (AN) to the typical Standard SCR feed stream, and we have compared them to those observed under Standard and Fast SCR conditions. The expected strong enhancement of the poor low temperature activity of the Fe-BEA catalyst was confirmed: both NH3 and NOx conversions and N2O formations similar to those of the Fast SCR reaction were achieved when cofeeding ammonium nitrate. On the other hand, the Cu-SAPO efficiency was drastically decreased by the addition of AN at low temperatures, possibly due to trapping of the ammonium nitrate salt within the SAPO zeolite, characterized by smaller pores than those of the BEA zeolite. The Cu-SAPO performances were recovered only at T > 250 °C with a huge release of N2O due to the thermal decomposition of AN. The combined system with the Fe-zeolite sample placed upstream of the Cu-zeolite also exhibited outstanding low temperature deNOx performances, with even lower N2O production than over the Fe-zeolite only at the same Enhanced SCR (E-SCR) conditions.

Recently, the dry reforming of methane (DRM) has received much attention as a conversion technology of greenhouse gases. Ni-based catalysts supported on ternary metal oxide composite (ZrTiAlOx) were prepared to improve the coke resistance properties in the DRM (CH4:CO2 = 1) at low temperature. The ZrTiAlOx supports with different ratios of Zr/Ti were prepared through the modified Pechini sol-gel method, and then the Ni was impregnated on the synthesized support via the incipient wetness impregnation method. Considering the Zr/Ti ratios, different catalytic activity and durability in the DRM were identified. The Ni/ZrTiAlOx catalyst with Zr/Ti of 2 exhibited enhanced coke inhibition property compared to the others at low temperature DRM for 50 h. The catalysts with a high Zr/Ti ratio under the same condition were rapidly deactivated, while the catalyst with a low Zr/Ti ratio showed deficient activity. It was found from temperature-programmed surface reactions (TPSR) and DRIFTS (Diffuse Reflectance Infrared Fourier Transform Spectroscopy) analysis that the addition of Ti has led in to higher catalytic stability at Zr/Ti = 2, which could be as a result of oxygen vacancies generated by the ternary metal oxides. Ni/ZrTiAlOx catalyst with ratio of Zr/Ti = 2 showed high stability and good catalytic activity towards DRM for the production of syngas.
