Reverse Micelle Strategy for the Synthesis of MnO _x -TiO₂ Active Catalysts for NH₃-Selective Catalytic Reduction of NO _x at Both Low Temperature and Low Mn Content.

ABSTRACT: MnO _x -TiO₂ catalysts (0, 1, 5, and 10 wt % Mn nominal content) for NH₃-SCR (selective catalytic reduction) of NO _x have been synthesized by the reverse micelle-assisted sol-gel procedure, with the aim of improving the dispersion of the active phase, usually poor when obtained by other synthesis methods (e.g., impregnation) and thereby lowering its amount. For comparison, a sample at nominal 10 wt % Mn was obtained by impregnation of the (undoped) TiO₂ sample. The catalysts were characterized by using an integrated multitechnique approach, encompassing X-ray diffraction followed by Rietveld refinement, micro-Raman spectroscopy, N₂ isotherm measurement at -196 °C, energy-dispersive X-ray analysis, diffuse reflectance UV-vis spectroscopy, temperature-programmed reduction technique, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The obtained results prove that the reverse micelle sol-gel approach allowed for enhancing the catalytic activity, in that the catalysts were active in a broad temperature range at a substantially low Mn loading, as compared to the impregnated catalyst. Particularly, the 5 wt % Mn catalyst showed the best NH₃-SCR activity in terms of both NO _x conversion (ca. 90%) and the amount of produced N₂O (ca. 50 ppm) in the 200-250 °C temperature range.

Sulfur resistance of Ce-Mn/TiO2 catalysts for low-temperature NH3-SCR.

Project description:Ce-Mn/TiO2 catalyst prepared using a simple impregnation method demonstrated a better low-temperature selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH3 (NH3-SCR) activity in comparison with the sol-gel method. The Ce-Mn/TiO2 catalyst loading with 20% Ce had the best low-temperature activity and achieved a NO conversion rate higher than 90% at 140-260°C with a 99.7% NO conversion rate at 180°C. The Ce-Mn/TiO2 catalyst only had a 6% NO conversion rate decrease after 100 ppm of SO2 was added to the stream. When SO2 was removed from the stream, the catalyst was able to recover completely. The crystal structure, morphology, textural properties and valence state of the metals involving the novel catalysts were investigated using X-ray diffraction, N2 adsorption and desorption analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy, respectively. The decrease of NH3-SCR performance in the presence of 100 ppm SO2 was due to the decrease of the surface area, change of the pore structure, the decrease of Ce4+ and Mn4+ concentration and the formation of the sulfur phase chemicals which blocked the active sites and changed the valence status of the elements.

Effect of initial support particle size of MnO x /TiO2 catalysts in the selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH3.

Project description:A series of manganese-based catalysts supported by 5-10 nm, 10-25 nm, 40 nm and 60 nm anatase TiO2 particles was synthesized via an impregnation method to investigate the effect of the initial support particle size on the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with NH3. All catalysts were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), N2 physisorption/desorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), temperature programmed techniques, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and in situ diffuse reflectance infrared transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS). TEM results indicated that the particle sizes of the MnO x /TiO2 catalysts were similar after the calcination process, although the initial TiO2 support particle sizes were different. However, the initial TiO2 support particle sizes were found to have a significant influence on the SCR catalytic performance. XPS and NH3-TPD results of the MnO x /TiO2 catalysts illustrated that the surface Mn4+/Mn molar ratio and acid amount could be influenced by the initial TiO2 support particle sizes. The order of surface Mn4+/Mn molar ratio and acid amount over the MnO x /TiO2 catalysts was as follows: MnO x /TiO2(10-25) > MnO x /TiO2(40) > MnO x /TiO2(60) > MnO x /TiO2(5-10), which agreed well with the order of SCR performance. In situ DRIFTS results revealed that the NH3-SCR reactions over MnO x /TiO2 at low temperature occurred via a Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism. More importantly, it was found that the bridge and bidentate nitrates were the main active substances for the low-temperature SCR reaction, and bridge nitrate adsorbed on Mn4+ showed superior SCR activity among all the adsorbed NO x species. The variation of the initial TiO2 support particle size over MnO x /TiO2 could change the surface Mn4+/Mn molar ratio, which could influence the adsorption of NO x species, thus bringing about the diversity of the SCR catalytic performance.

Effect of Calcination Temperature on the Activation Performance and Reaction Mechanism of Ce-Mn-Ru/TiO2 Catalysts for Selective Catalytic Reduction of NO with NH3.

Project description:In this study, anatase TiO2-supported cerium, manganese, and ruthenium mixed oxides (CeO x -MnO x -RuO x /TiO2; CMRT catalysts) were synthesized at different calcination temperatures via conventional impregnation methods and used for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO x with NH3. The effect of calcination temperature on the structure, redox properties, activation performance, surface-acidity properties, and catalytic properties of the CMRT catalysts was investigated. The results show that the CMRT catalyst calcined at 350 °C exhibits the most efficient low-temperature (<120 °C) denitration activity. Moreover, the selective catalytic oxidation (SCO) reaction of ammonia is intensified when the reaction temperature is >200 °C, which leads to a decrease in the N2 selectivity of the CMRT catalysts and further results in an increase in the production of NO and N2O byproducts. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy show that the CMRT catalyst calcined at 350 °C contains more Ce4+, Mn4+, Ru4+, and lattice oxygen, which greatly improve the catalyst's ability to activate NO that promotes the NH3-SCR reaction. The Ru n+ sites of the CMRT catalyst calcined at 250 °C are the competitive adsorption sites of NO and NH3 molecules, while those of the CMRT catalyst calcined at 350 and 450 °C are active sites. Both the Langmuir-Hinshelwood (L-H) mechanism and the Eley-Rideal (E-R) mechanism occur on the surface of the CMRT catalyst at the low reaction temperature (100 °C).

Nitration-Promoted Vanadate Catalysts for Low-Temperature Selective Catalytic Reduction of NOX with NH3.

Project description:Vanadium-based catalysts have been commercially used in selective catalytic reduction (SCR), owing to their high catalytic activity and effectiveness across a wide temperature range; however, their catalytic efficiency decreases at lower temperatures under exposure to SOX. This decrease is largely due to ammonium sulfate generation on the catalyst surface. To overcome this limitation, we added ammonium nitrate to the V2O5-WO3/TiO2 catalyst, producing a V2O5-WO3/TiO2 catalyst with nitrate functional groups. With this approach, we found that it was possible to adjust the amount of these functional groups by varying the amount of ammonium nitrate. Overall, the resultant nitrate V2O5-WO3/TiO2 catalyst has large quantities of NO3- and chemisorbed oxygen, which improves the density of Brønsted and Lewis acid sites on the catalyst surface. Furthermore, the nitrated V2O5-WO3/TiO2 catalyst has a high NOX removal efficiency and N2 selectivity at low temperatures (i.e., 300 °C); this is because NO3- and chemisorbed oxygen, generated by nitrate treatment, facilitated the occurrence of a fast SCR reaction. The approach outlined in this study can be applied to a wide range of SCR catalysts, allowing for the development of more, low-temperature SCR catalysts.

TiO2-SiO2 supported MnWO x catalysts by liquid-phase deposition for low-temperature NH3-SCR.

Project description:NH3-SCR is an environmentally important reaction for the abatement of NO x from different resources. MnO2-based catalyst has attracted significant attention due to the excellent activity. In this paper, a series of MnWO x /TiO2-SiO2 catalysts were prepared by liquid-phase deposition method. The catalysts were characterized by N2 adsorption/desorption, XRD, TEM, XPS, FT-IR, H2-TPR, TG and water adsorption capacity. The existence of SiO2 improved the SO2 and H2O resistance of the MnWO x /TiO2-SiO2 catalyst without decreasing the NH3-SCR activity. Under the reaction conditions of 260°C and 60 000 ml gcata h-1 gas hourly space velocity (GHSV), the NO conversion was kept stable at about 95% for 140 min on stream. The excellent performance of MnWO x /TiO2-SiO2 catalyst is considered to be originated from the texture properties and active species dispersion improvement by SiO2 in the support and low-temperature preparation.

Ozone catalytic oxidation of low-concentration formaldehyde over ternary Mn-Ce-Ni oxide catalysts modified with FeOx.

Project description:Manganese oxide-based catalysts have attracted extensive attention due to their relatively low cost and remarkable performance for removing VOCs. In this research, we used the Pechini method to synthesize manganese-cerium-nickel ternary oxide catalysts (MCN) and evaluated the effectiveness of catalytic destruction of formaldehyde (HCHO) and ozone at room temperature. FeOx prepared by the impregnation method was applied to modify the catalyst. After FeOx treatment, the catalyst represented the best performance on both HCHO destruction and ozone decomposition under dry conditions and exhibited excellent water vapor resistance. The as-prepared catalysts were next characterized via H2-temperature programmed reduction (H2-TPR), temperature programmed desorption of O2 (O2-TPD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and the results demonstrated that addition of FeOx increased Mn3+ and Ce3+ concentrations, oxygen vacancies and surface lattice oxygen species, facilitated adsorption, and redox properties. Based on the results of in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectrometry (DRIFTS), possible mechanisms of ozone catalytic oxidation of HCHO were proposed. Overall, the ternary mixed-oxide catalyst developed in this study holds great promise for HCHO and ozone decomposition in the indoor environment.

Tunable preparation of highly dispersed Ni x Mn-LDO catalysts derived from Ni x Mn-LDHs precursors and application in low-temperature NH3-SCR reactions.

Project description:A series of Ni x Mn bimixed metal oxides (Ni x Mn-LDO) were prepared via calcining Ni x Mn layered double hydroxides (Ni x Mn-LDHs) precursors at 400 °C and applied as catalysts in the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO x with NH3. The DeNO x performance of catalysts was optimized by adjusting the Ni/Mn molar ratios of Ni x Mn-LDO precursors, in which Ni5Mn-LDO exhibited above 90% NO x conversion and N2 selectivity at a temperature zone of 180-360 °C. Besides, Ni5Mn-LDO possessed considerable SO2 & H2O resistance and outstanding stability. Multiple characterization techniques were used to analyze the physicochemical properties of the catalysts. The analysis results indicated that all catalysts had the same active species Ni6MnO8, while their particle sizes showed significant differences. Notably, the uniform distribution of active species particles in the Ni5Mn-LDO catalyst provided the rich surface acidity and suitable redox ability which were the primary causes for its desirable DeNO x property.

Electrochemical trapping of metastable Mn3+ ions for activation of MnO2 oxygen evolution catalysts.

Project description:Electrodeposited manganese oxide films are promising catalysts for promoting the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), especially in acidic solutions. The activity of these catalysts is known to be enhanced by the introduction of Mn3+ We present in situ electrochemical and X-ray absorption spectroscopic studies, which reveal that Mn3+ may be introduced into MnO2 by an electrochemically induced comproportionation reaction with Mn2+ and that Mn3+ persists in OER active films. Extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectra of the Mn3+-activated films indicate a decrease in the Mn-O coordination number, and Raman microspectroscopy reveals the presence of distorted Mn-O environments. Computational studies show that Mn3+ is kinetically trapped in tetrahedral sites and in a fully oxidized structure, consistent with the reduction of coordination number observed in EXAFS. Although in a reduced state, computation shows that Mn3+ states are stabilized relative to those of oxygen and that the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) is thus dominated by oxygen states. Furthermore, the Mn3+(Td) induces local strain on the oxide sublattice as observed in Raman spectra and results in a reduced gap between the HOMO and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO). The confluence of a reduced HOMO-LUMO gap and oxygen-based HOMO results in the facilitation of OER on the application of anodic potentials to the ?-MnO2 polymorph incorporating Mn3+ ions.

Low-Temperature Selective Catalytic Reduction of NO x with NH3 over Mn-Ce Composites Synthesized by Polymer-Assisted Deposition.

Project description:The Mn x Ce y binary catalysts with a three-dimensional network structure were successfully prepared via a polymer-assisted deposition method using ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and polyethyleneimine as complexing agents. The developed pore structure could facilitate the gas diffusion and accelerate the catalytic reaction for NH3 selective catalytic reduction (SCR). Moreover, the addition of Ce is beneficial for the exposure of active sites on the catalyst surface and increases the adsorption of the NH3 and NO species. Therefore, the Mn1Ce1 catalyst exhibits the best catalytic activity for NO x removal with a conversion rate of 97% at 180 °C, superior water resistance, and favorable stability. The SCR reaction over the Mn1Ce1 catalyst takes place through the E-R pathway, which is confirmed by the in situ diffuse reflectance Fourier transform analysis. This work explores a new strategy to fabricate multimetal catalysts and optimize the structure of catalysts.

Polyol-Mediated Synthesis of V2O5-WO3/TiO2 Catalysts for Low-Temperature Selective Catalytic Reduction with Ammonia.

Project description:We demonstrated highly efficient selective catalytic reduction catalysts by adopting the polyol process, and the prepared catalysts exhibited a high nitrogen oxide (NOX) removal efficiency of 96% at 250 °C. The V2O5 and WO3 catalyst nanoparticles prepared using the polyol process were smaller (~10 nm) than those prepared using the impregnation method (~20 nm), and the small catalyst size enabled an increase in surface area and catalytic acid sites. The NOX removal efficiencies at temperatures between 200 and 250 °C were enhanced by approximately 30% compared to those of the catalysts prepared using the conventional impregnation method. The NH3-temperature-programmed desorption and H2-temperature-programmed reduction results confirmed that the polyol process produced more surface acid sites at low temperatures and enhanced the redox ability. The in situ Fourier-transform infrared spectra further elucidated the fast absorption of NH3 and its reduction with NO and O2 on the prepared catalyst surfaces. This study provides an effective approach to synthesizing efficient low-temperature SCR catalysts and may contribute to further studies related to other catalytic systems.
