Suppressed N2O formation during NH3 selective catalytic reduction using vanadium on zeolitic microporous TiO2.

ABSTRACT: Emission of N2O from mobile and off-road engine is now being currently regulated because of its high impact compared to that of CO2, thereby implying that N2O formation from the exhaust gas after-treatment system should be suppressed. Selective catalytic reduction using vanadium supported TiO2 catalyst in mobile and off-road engine has been considered to be major source for N2O emission in the system. Here we have demonstrated that vanadium catalyst supported on zeolitic microporous TiO2 obtained from the hydrothermal reaction of bulk TiO2 at 400 K in the presence of LiOH suppresses significantly the N2O emission compared to conventional VOx/TiO2 catalyst, while maintaining the excellent NOx reduction, which was ascribed to the location of VOx domain in the micropore of TiO2, resulting in the strong metal support interaction. The use of zeolitic microporous TiO2 provides a new way of preparing SCR catalyst with a high thermal stability and superior catalytic performance. It can be also extended further to the other catalytic system employing TiO2-based substrate.

Novel TiO2 catalyst carriers with high thermostability for selective catalytic reduction of NO by NH3.

Project description:A series of TiO2 catalyst carriers with ceria additives were prepared by a precipitation method and tested for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO by NH3. These samples were characterized by XRD, N2-BET, NH3-TPD, H2-TPR, TEM, XPS and in situ DRIFTS, respectively. Results showed that the appropriate addition of ceria can enhance the catalytic activity and thermostability of TiO2 catalyst carriers significantly. The maximum catalytic activity of Ti-Ce-Ox-500 is 98.5% at 400 °C with a GHSV of 100 000 h-1 and the high catalytic activity still remains even after the treatment at high temperature for 24 h. The high catalytic performance of Ti-Ce-Ox-500 can be attributed to a series of superior properties, such as larger specific surface area, more Brønsted acid sites, more hydrogen consumption, and the higher proportion of chemisorbed oxygen. Ceria atoms can inhibit the crystalline grain growth and the collapse of small channels caused by high temperatures. Furthermore, in situ DRIFTS in different feed gases show that the SCR reaction over Ti-Ce-Ox-500 follows both E-R and L-H mechanisms.

One-pot synthesis of hierarchical FeZSM-5 zeolites from natural aluminosilicates for selective catalytic reduction of NO by NH3.

Project description:Iron-modified ZSM-5 zeolites (FeZSM-5s) have been considered to be a promising catalyst system to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions, one of the most important global environmental issues, but their synthesis faces enormous economic and environmental challenges. Herein we report a cheap and green strategy to fabricate hierarchical FeZSM-5 zeolites from natural aluminosilicate minerals via a nanoscale depolymerization-reorganization method. Our strategy is featured by neither using any aluminum-, silicon-, or iron-containing inorganic chemical nor involving any mesoscale template and any post-synthetic modification. Compared with the conventional FeZSM-5 synthesized from inorganic chemicals with the similar Fe content, the resulting hierarchical FeZSM-5 with highly-dispersed iron species showed superior catalytic activity in the selective catalytic reduction of NO by NH3.

Characterization of an Fe?N-NH2 Intermediate Relevant to Catalytic N2 Reduction to NH3.

Project description:The ability of certain transition metals to mediate the reduction of N2 to NH3 has attracted broad interest in the biological and inorganic chemistry communities. Early transition metals such as Mo and W readily bind N2 and mediate its protonation at one or more N atoms to furnish M(N(x)H(y)) species that can be characterized and, in turn, extrude NH3. By contrast, the direct protonation of Fe-N2 species to Fe(N(x)H(y)) products that can be characterized has been elusive. Herein, we show that addition of acid at low temperature to [(TPB)Fe(N2)][Na(12-crown-4)] results in a new S = 1/2 Fe species. EPR, ENDOR, Mössbauer, and EXAFS analysis, coupled with a DFT study, unequivocally assign this new species as [(TPB)Fe?N-NH2](+), a doubly protonated hydrazido(2-) complex featuring an Fe-to-N triple bond. This unstable species offers strong evidence that the first steps in Fe-mediated nitrogen reduction by [(TPB)Fe(N2)][Na(12-crown-4)] can proceed along a distal or "Chatt-type" pathway. A brief discussion of whether subsequent catalytic steps may involve early or late stage cleavage of the N-N bond, as would be found in limiting distal or alternating mechanisms, respectively, is also provided.

Roles of ZnO in Cu/Core-Shell Al-MCM-41 for NO Reduction by Selective Catalytic Reduction with NH3: The Effects of Metal Loading and Cu/ZnO Ratio.

Project description:Cu-ZnO/Al-MCM-41 catalysts were studied for NO x reduction. The total metal loading was varied as 3, 5, and 7 wt %, whereas the Cu-to-ZnO ratio was fixed at 1:1. Too high metal loading led to lower reducibility of Cu2+, as CuO and ZnO covers on the catalyst surface could partially block pores and hinder gas molecules to access the Cu2+ ions. Subsequently, Cu loading was fixed at 2.5 wt %, whereas ZnO content was varied as 0, 2.5, and 3.5 wt %. The results demonstrated that 2.5Cu-2.5ZnO catalyst exhibits the best catalytic activity, as it gave the average NO conversion of 87%.

Catalytic reduction of N2 to NH3 by an Fe-N2 complex featuring a C-atom anchor.

Project description:While recent spectroscopic studies have established the presence of an interstitial carbon atom at the center of the iron-molybdenum cofactor (FeMoco) of MoFe-nitrogenase, its role is unknown. We have pursued Fe-N2 model chemistry to explore a hypothesis whereby this C-atom (previously denoted as a light X-atom) may provide a flexible trans interaction with an Fe center to expose an Fe-N2 binding site. In this context, we now report on Fe complexes of a new tris(phosphino)alkyl (CP(iPr)3) ligand featuring an axial carbon donor. It is established that the iron center in this scaffold binds dinitrogen trans to the C(alkyl)-atom anchor in three distinct and structurally characterized oxidation states. Fe-C(alkyl) lengthening is observed upon reduction, reflective of significant ionic character in the Fe-C(alkyl) interaction. The anionic (CP(iPr)3)FeN2(-) species can be functionalized by a silyl electrophile to generate (CP(iPr)3)Fe-N2SiR3. (CP(iPr)3)FeN2(-) also functions as a modest catalyst for the reduction of N2 to NH3 when supplied with electrons and protons at -78 °C under 1 atm N2 (4.6 equiv NH3/Fe).

Co-application of straw incorporation and biochar addition stimulated soil N2O and NH3 productions.

Project description:Nitrous oxide (N2O) and ammonia (NH3) volatilization (AV) are the major pathways of nitrogen (N) loss in soil, and recently, N2O and NH3 mitigation has become urgently needed in agricultural systems worldwide. However, the influence of straw incorporation (SI) and biochar addition (BC) on N2O and NH3 emissions are still unclear. To fill this knowledge gap, a soil column experiment was conducted with two management strategies using straw - straw incorporation (S1) and straw removal (S0) - and four biochar application rates (0 (C0), 15 (C1), 30 (C2), and 45 t ha-1 (C3)) to evaluate the impacts of their interactions on N2O and NH3 emissions. The results showed that NO3--N concentration and pH was the major contributors to affect the N2O and NH3 losses. Without biochar addition, N2O emissions was decreased by 59.6% (P<0.05) but AV was increased by 97.3% (P<0.05) under SI when compared to SR. Biochar was beneficial for N2O mitigation when straw was removed, but increased N2O emission by 39.4%-83.8% when straw was incorporated. Additionally, biochar stimulated AV by 27.9%-60.4% under S0 and 78.6%-170.3% under S1. Consequently, SI was found to significantly interact with BC in terms of affecting N2O (P<0.001) and NH3 (P<0.001) emissions; co-application of SI and BC promoted N2O emissions and offset the mitigation potential by SI or BC alone. The indirect N2O emissions caused by AV, however, might offset the reduction of direct N2O caused by SI or BC, thus leading to an increase in overall N2O emission. This paper recommended that SI combined BC at the amount of 8.2 t ha-1 for maintaining a lower overall N2O emission for future agriculture practices, but the long-term impacts of straw incorporation and biochar addition on the trade-off between N2O and NH3 emissions and reactive N losses should be further examined and assessed.

Rapid and Selective NH3 Sensing by Porous CuBr.

Project description:Fast and selective detection of NH3 at parts-per-billion (ppb) concentrations with inexpensive and low-power sensors represents a long-standing challenge. Here, a room temperature, solid-state sensor is presented consisting of nanostructured porous (78%) CuBr films. These are prepared by flame-aerosol deposition of CuO onto sensor substrates followed by dry reduction and bromination. Each step is monitored in situ through the film resistance affording excellent process control. Such porous CuBr films feature an order of magnitude higher NH3 sensitivity and five times faster response times than conventional denser CuBr films. That way, rapid (within 2.2 min) sensing of even the lowest (e.g., 5 ppb) NH3 concentrations at 90% relative humidity is attained with outstanding selectivity (30-260) over typical confounders including ethanol, acetone, H2, CH4, isoprene, acetic acid, formaldehyde, methanol, and CO, superior to state-of-the-art sensors. This sensor is ideal for hand-held and battery-driven devices or integration into wearable electronics as it does not require heating. From a broader perspective, the process opens exciting new avenues to also explore other bromides and classes of semiconductors (e.g., sulfides, nitrides, carbides) currently not accessible by flame-aerosol technology.

Isoprene Polymerization: Catalytic Performance of Iminopyridine Vanadium(III) Chloride versus Vanadium(III) Chloride.

Project description:A series of vanadium complexes bearing iminopyridine bidentate ligands with various electronic and steric properties: V1 [CH2Ph], V2 [CMe2CH2CMe3], V3 [Ph] and V4 [2,6-iPr2Ph] were prepared and characterized by IR spectroscopy and microanalytical analysis. The catalytic capacity of all the complexes has been investigated for isoprene polymerization and was controlled by tuning the ligand structure with different N-alkyl and N-aryl groups. Activated by methylaluminoxane (MAO), the aryl-substituted complex V3 [Ph] exhibited high cis-1,4 selectivity (75%), and the resultant polymers had high molecular weights (Mn = 6.6 × 104) and narrow molecular weight distributions (PDI = 2.3). This catalyst showed high activity up to 734.4 kg polymer (mol V)-1 h-1 with excellent thermostability even stable at 70 °C. Compared to the traditional VCl3/MAO catalytic system, iminopyridine-supported V(III) catalysts displayed higher catalytic activities and changed the selectivity of monomer enchainment from trans-1,4 to cis-1,4.

Catalytic reduction of NO to N2O by a designed heme copper center in myoglobin: implications for the role of metal ions.

Project description:The effects of metal ions on the reduction of nitric oxide (NO) with a designed heme copper center in myoglobin (F43H/L29H sperm whale Mb, CuBMb) were investigated under reducing anaerobic conditions using UV-vis and EPR spectroscopic techniques as well as GC/MS. In the presence of Cu(I), catalytic reduction of NO to N2O by CuBMb was observed with turnover number of 2 mol NO.mol CuBMb-1.min-1, close to 3 mol NO.mol enzyme-1.min-1 reported for the ba3 oxidases from T. thermophilus. Formation of a His-heme-NO species was detected by UV-vis and EPR spectroscopy. In comparison to the EPR spectra of ferrous-CuBMb-NO in the absence of metal ions, the EPR spectra of ferrous-CuBMb-NO in the presence of Cu(I) showed less-resolved hyperfine splitting from the proximal histidine, probably due to weakening of the proximal His-heme bond. In the presence of Zn(II), formation of a five-coordinate ferrous-CuBMb-NO species, resulting from cleavage of the proximal heme Fe-His bond, was shown by UV-vis and EPR spectroscopic studies. The reduction of NO to N2O was not observed in the presence of Zn(II). Control experiments using wild-type myoglobin indicated no reduction of NO in the presence of either Cu(I) or Zn(II). These results suggest that both the identity and the oxidation state of the metal ion in the CuB center are important for NO reduction. A redox-active metal ion is required to deliver electrons, and a higher oxidation state is preferred to weaken the heme iron-proximal histidine toward a five-coordinate key intermediate in NO reduction.
