Title: Alkali and Phosphorus Resistant Zeolite-like Catalysts for NOx Reduction by NH3. Author: Yan L, Ji Y, Wang P, Feng C, Han L, Li H, Yan T, Shi L, Zhang D. Journal: Environ Sci Technol; 2020 Jul 21; 54(14):9132-9141. PubMed ID: 32574494. Abstract: At present, the deactivation of selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalysts caused by the coexistence of alkali metal and phosphorus (P) remains an urgent problem and lacks corresponding strategies against catalyst poisoning. Herein, a novel zeolite-like Ce-Si5Al2Ox catalyst derived from an ultrasmall nanozeolite EMT precursor was synthesized without organic templates at ambient temperature. This catalyst was able to maintain above 95% NOx conversion in the 270-540 °C temperature range. Moreover, 1 wt % potassium (K) and 5 wt % P loading had no influence on the SCR performance of the Ce-Si5Al2Ox catalyst at 300-480 °C. It was demonstrated that cerium (Ce) was highly dispersed in the amorphous aluminum (Al) silicate derived from EMT zeolites and expressed high catalytic performance. Besides, a large number of acid sites were reserved to absorb ammonia allowing effective participation in the SCR reaction and capturing alkali metals, thus improving the SCR performance and K resistance. Additionally, the strong interaction between Ce and aluminosilicate decreased cerium phosphate production, preventing deactivation of the catalysts. Thus, this novel low-cost zeolite-like Ce-Si5Al2Ox catalyst with a highly active ion-exchanged metal phase and abundant surface acid sites paves a way for designing new efficient and poisoning-resistant SCR catalysts for practical applications.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
