The effectiveness of Ag/Al 2O 3 catalyst depends greatly on the alumina source used for preparation. A series of alumina-supported catalysts derived from AlOOH, Al 2O 3, and Al(OH) 3 was studied by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), ultraviolet–visible (UV–vis) spectroscopy, diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform (DRIFT) spectroscopy, O 2, NO + O 2-temperature programmed desorption (TPD), H 2-temperature programmed reduction (TPR), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and activity test, with a focus on the correlation between their redox properties and catalytic behavior towards C 3H 6-selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO reaction. The best SCR activity along with a moderated C 3H 6 conversion was achieved over Ag/Al 2O 3 (I) employing AlOOH source. The high density of Ag–O–Al species in Ag/Al 2O 3 (I) is deemed to be crucial for NO selective reduction into N 2. By contrast, a high C 3H 6 conversion simultaneously with a moderate N 2 yield was observed over Ag/Al 2O 3 (II) prepared from a γ-Al 2O 3 source. The larger particles of Ag mO ( m > 2) crystallites were believed to facilitate the propene oxidation therefore leading to a scarcity of reductant for SCR of NO. An amorphous Ag/Al 2O 3 (III) was obtained via employing a Al(OH) 3 source and 500 °C calcination exhibiting a poor SCR performance similar to that for Ag-free Al 2O 3 (I). A subsequent calcination of Ag/Al 2O 3 (III) at 800 °C led to the generation of Ag/Al 2O 3 (IV) catalyst yielding a significant enhancement in both N 2 yield and C 3H 6 conversion, which was attributed to the appearance of γ-phase structure and an increase in surface area. Further thermo treatment at 950 °C for the preparation of Ag/Al 2O 3 (V) accelerated the sintering of Ag clusters resulting in a severe unselective combustion, which competes with SCR of NO reaction. In view of the transient studies, the redox properties of the prepared catalysts were investigated showing an oxidation capability of Ag/Al 2O 3 (II and V) > Ag/Al 2O 3 (IV) > Ag/Al 2O 3 (I) > Ag/Al 2O 3 (III) and Al 2O 3 (I). The formation of nitrate species is an important step for the deNO x process, which can be promoted by increasing O 2 feed concentration as evidenced by NO + O 2-TPD study for Ag/Al 2O 3 (I), achieving a better catalytic performance. 相似文献

CeO 2 and CeReO x_ y catalysts are prepared by the calcination at different temperatures ( y = 500–1000 °C) and having a different composition (Re = La 3+ or Pr 3+/4+, 0–90 wt.%). The catalysts are characterised by XRD, H 2-TPR, Raman, and BET surface area. The soot oxidation is studied with O 2 and NO + O 2 in the tight and loose contact conditions, respectively. CeO 2 sinters between 800–900 °C due to a grain growth, leading to an increased crystallite size and a decreased BET surface area. La 3+ or Pr 3+/4+ hinders the grain growth of CeO 2 and, thereby, improving the surface catalytic properties. Using O 2 as an oxidant, an improved soot oxidation is observed over CeLaO x_ y and CePrO x_ y in the whole dopant weight loading and calcination temperature range studied, compared with CeO 2. Using NO + O 2, the soot conversion decreased over CeLaO x_ y catalysts calcined below 800 °C compared with the soot oxidation over CeO 2_ y. CePrO x_ y, on the other hand, showed a superior soot oxidation activity in the whole composition and calcination temperature range using NO + O 2. The improvement in the soot oxidation activity over the various catalysts with O 2 can be explained based on an improvement in the external surface area. The superior soot oxidation activity of CePrO x_ y with NO + O 2 is explained by the changes in the redox properties of the catalyst as well as surface area. CePrO x_ y, having 50 wt.% of dopant, is found to be the best catalyst due to synergism between cerium and praseodymium compared to pure components. NO into NO 2 oxidation activity, that determines soot oxidation activity, is improved over all CePrO x catalysts. 相似文献

The reduction of NO under cyclic “lean”/“rich” conditions was examined over two model 1 wt.% Pt/20 wt.% BaO/Al 2O 3 and 1 wt.% Pd/20 wt.% BaO/Al 2O 3 NO x storage reduction (NSR) catalysts. At temperatures between 250 and 350 °C, the Pd/BaO/Al 2O 3 catalyst exhibits higher overall NO x reduction activity. Limited amounts of N 2O were formed over both catalysts. Identical cyclic studies conducted with non-BaO-containing 1 wt.% Pt/Al 2O 3 and Pd/Al 2O 3 catalysts demonstrate that under these conditions Pd exhibits a higher activity for the oxidation of both propylene and NO. Furthermore, in situ FTIR studies conducted under identical conditions suggest the formation of higher amounts of surface nitrite species on Pd/BaO/Al 2O 3. The IR results indicate that this species is substantially more active towards reaction with propylene. Moreover, its formation and reduction appear to represent the main pathway for the storage and reduction of NO under the conditions examined. Consequently, the higher activity of Pd can be attributed to its higher oxidation activity, leading both to a higher storage capacity ( i.e., higher concentration of surface nitrites under “lean” conditions) and a higher reduction activity ( i.e., higher concentration of partially oxidized active propylene species under “rich” conditions). The performance of Pt and Pd is nearly identical at temperatures above 375 °C. 相似文献

The role of La 2O 3 loading in Pd/Al 2O 3-La 2O 3 prepared by sol–gel on the catalytic properties in the NO reduction with H 2 was studied. The catalysts were characterized by N 2 physisorption, temperature-programmed reduction, differential thermal analysis, temperature-programmed oxidation and temperature-programmed desorption of NO. The physicochemical properties of Pd catalysts as well as the catalytic activity and selectivity are modified by La2O3 inclusion. The selectivity depends on the NO/H2 molar ratio (GHSV = 72,000 h−1) and the extent of interaction between Pd and La2O3. At NO/H2 = 0.5, the catalysts show high N2 selectivity (60–75%) at temperatures lower than 250 °C. For NO/H2 = 1, the N2 selectivity is almost 100% mainly for high temperatures, and even in the presence of 10% H2O vapor. The high N2 selectivity indicates a high capability of the catalysts to dissociate NO upon adsorption. This property is attributed to the creation of new adsorption sites through the formation of a surface PdOx phase interacting with La2O3. The formation of this phase is favored by the spreading of PdO promoted by La2O3. DTA shows that the phase transformation takes place at temperatures of 280–350 °C, while TPO indicates that this phase transformation is related to the oxidation process of PdO: in the case of Pd/Al2O3 the O2 uptake is consistent with the oxidation of PdO to PdO2, and when La2O3 is present the O2 uptake exceeds that amount (1.5 times). La2O3 in Pd catalysts promotes also the oxidation of Pd and dissociative adsorption of NO mainly at low temperatures (<250 °C) favoring the formation of N2. 相似文献

In this study, a novel bifunctional catalyst IrFe/Al 2O 3, which is very active and selective for preferential oxidation of CO under H 2-rich atmosphere, has been developed. When the molar ratio of Fe/Ir was 5/1, the IrFe/Al 2O 3 catalyst performed best, with CO conversion of 68% and oxygen selectivity towards CO 2 formation of 86.8% attained at 100 °C. It has also been found that the impregnation sequence of Ir and Fe species on the Al 2O 3 support had a remarkable effect on the catalytic performance; the activity decreased following the order of IrFe/Al 2O 3 > co-IrFe/Al 2O 3 > FeIr/Al 2O 3. The three catalysts were characterized by XRD, H 2-TPR, FT-IR and microcalorimetry. The results demonstrated that when Ir was supported on the pre-formed Fe/Al 2O 3, the resulting structure (IrFe/Al 2O 3) allowed more metallic Ir sites exposed on the surface and accessible for CO adsorption, while did not interfere with the O 2 activation on the FeO x species. Thus, a bifunctional catalytic mechanism has been proposed where CO adsorbed on Ir sites and O 2 adsorbed on FeO x sites; the reaction may take place at the interface of Ir and FeO x or via a spill-over process. 相似文献

The selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO by C 3H 6 in excess oxygen was evaluated and compared over Ag/Al 2O 3 and Cu/Al 2O 3 catalysts. Ag/Al 2O 3 showed a high activity for NO reduction. However, Cu/Al 2O 3 showed a high activity for C 3H 6 oxidation. The partial oxidation of C 3H 6 gave surface enolic species and acetate species on the Ag/Al 2O 3, but only an acetate species was clearly observed on the Cu/Al 2O 3. The enolic species is a more active intermediate towards NO + O 2 to yield—NCO species than the acetate species on the Ag/Al 2O 3 catalyst. The Ag and Cu metal loadings and phase changes on Al 2O 3 support can affect the activity and selectivity of Ag/Al 2O 3 and Cu/Al 2O 3 catalysts, but the formation of enolic species is the main reason why the activity of the Ag/Al 2O 3 catalyst for NO reduction is higher than that of the Cu/Al 2O 3 catalyst. 相似文献

Catalytic performance of Sn/Al 2O 3 catalysts prepared by impregnation (IM) and sol–gel (SG) method for selective catalytic reduction of NO x by propene under lean burn condition were investigated. The physical properties of catalyst were characterized by BET, XRD, XPS and TPD. The results showed that NO 2 had higher reactivity than NO to nitrogen, the maximum NO conversion was 82% on the 5% Sn/Al 2O 3 (SG) catalyst, and the maximum NO 2 conversion reached nearly 100% around 425 °C. Such a temperature of maximum NO conversion was in accordance with those of NO x desorption accompanied with O 2 around 450 °C. The activity of NO reduction was enhanced remarkably by the presence of H 2O and SO 2 at low temperature, and the temperature window was also broadened in the presence of H 2O and SO 2, however the NO x desorption and NO conversion decreased sharply on the 300 ppm SO 2 treated catalyst, the catalytic activity was inhibited by the presence of SO 2 due to formation of sulfate species (SO 42−) on the catalysts. The presence of oxygen played an essential role in NO reduction, and the activity of the 5% Sn/Al 2O 3 (SG) was not decreased in the presence of large oxygen. 相似文献

A multi-component NO x-trap catalyst consisting of Pt and K supported on γ-Al 2O 3 was studied at 250 °C to determine the roles of the individual catalyst components, to identify the adsorbing species during the lean capture cycle, and to assess the effects of H 2O and CO 2 on NO x storage. The Al 2O 3 support was shown to have NO x trapping capability with and without Pt present (at 250 °C Pt/Al 2O 3 adsorbs 2.3 μmols NO x/m 2). NO x is primarily trapped on Al 2O 3 in the form of nitrates with monodentate, chelating and bridged forms apparent in Diffuse Reflectance mid-Infrared Fourier Transform Spectroscopy (DRIFTS) analysis. The addition of K to the catalyst increases the adsorption capacity to 6.2 μmols NO x/m 2, and the primary storage form on K is a free nitrate ion. Quantitative DRIFTS analysis shows that 12% of the nitrates on a Pt/K/Al 2O 3 catalyst are coordinated on the Al 2O 3 support at saturation. When 5% CO2 was included in a feed stream with 300 ppm NO and 12% O2, the amount of K-based nitrate storage decreased by 45% after 1 h on stream due to the competition of adsorbed free nitrates with carboxylates for adsorption sites. When 5% H2O was included in a feed stream with 300 ppm NO and 12% O2, the amount of K-based nitrate storage decreased by only 16% after 1 h, but the Al2O3-based nitrates decreased by 92%. Interestingly, with both 5% CO2 and 5% H2O in the feed, the total storage only decreased by 11%, as the hydroxyl groups generated on Al2O3 destabilized the K–CO2 bond; specifically, H2O mitigates the NOx storage capacity losses associated with carboxylate competition. 相似文献

CeO 2–ZrO 2 solid solution ((Ce,Zr)O 2) is an indispensable oxygen storage capacity (OSC) material for emission control in gasoline-fuelled automobiles. The high performance OSC material developed in this study is composed of Al 2O 3 as “a diffusion barrier” and (Ce,Zr)O 2 particles in intervening layers on a nanometer scale, and is abbreviated as “ACZ”. The Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) specific surface area (SSA) of ACZ after durability testing in air at 1000 °C was 20 m 2/g, which is higher than that of conventional CZ (2 m 2/g) composed of (Ce,Zr)O 2 without Al 2O 3. After heat treatment at 1000 °C in air, the particle size of (Ce,Zr)O 2 in ACZ was about 10 nm and that without Al 2O 3 was one-half of the size in pure CZ. The OSC was roughly characterized by the total capacity (OSC-c1) and the oxygen release rate (OSC-r). In a fresh catalyst, ACZ and CZ had almost the same OSC-c1; however, the OSC-r of ACZ was twice as fast as CZ. After durability testing, the OSC-r of both ACZ and CZ were reduced significantly, but the OSC-r of ACZ was about five times as fast as CZ. While the OSC-c1 was hardly influenced by the (Ce,Zr)O 2 crystallite size and Pt particle size on the supports, the OSC-r was influenced by both of these parameters. The improvement of the OSC-r in the fresh catalyst and inhibition of the decrease in the OSC-r after durability testing were achieved by suppression of particle growth of (Ce,Zr)O 2 in ACZ by introducing Al 2O 3 as a diffusion barrier with resultant inhibition of sintering of Pt particles. 相似文献

A systematic mechanistic study of NO storage and reduction over Pt/Al 2O 3 and Pt/BaO/Al 2O 3 is carried out using Temporal Analysis of Products (TAP). NO pulse and NO/H 2 pump-probe experiments at 350 °C on pre-reduced, pre-oxidized, and pre-nitrated catalysts reveal the complex interplay between storage and reduction chemistries and the importance of the Pt/Ba coupling. NO pulsing experiments on both catalysts show that NO decomposes to major product N 2 on clean Pt but the rate declines as oxygen accumulates on the Pt. The storage of NO over Pt/BaO/Al 2O 3 is an order of magnitude higher than on Pt/Al 2O 3 showing participation of Ba in the storage even in the absence of gas phase O 2. Either oxygen spillover or transient NO oxidation to NO 2 is postulated as the first steps for NO storage on Pt/BaO/Al 2O 3. The storage on Pt/Ba/Al 2O 3 commences as soon as Pt–O species are formed. Post-storage H 2 reduction provides evidence that a fraction of NO is not stored in close proximity to Pt and is more difficult to reduce. A closely coupled Pt/Ba interfacial process is corroborated by NO/H 2 pump-probe experiments. NO conversion to N 2 by decomposition is sustained on clean Pt using excess H 2 pump-probe feeds. With excess NO pump-probe feeds NO is converted to N 2 and N 2O via the sequence of barium nitrate and NO decomposition. Pump-probe experiments with pre-oxidized or pre-nitrated catalyst show that N 2 production occurs by the decomposition of NO supplied in a NO pulse or from the decomposition of NOx stored on the Ba. The transient evolution of the two pathways depends on the extent of pre-nitration and the NO/H 2 feed ratio. 相似文献

A series of CoO x/Al 2O 3 catalysts was prepared, characterized, and applied for the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO by C 3H 8. The results of XRD, UV–vis, IR, Far-IR and ESR characterizations of the catalysts suggest that the predominant oxidation state of cobalt species is +2 for the catalysts with low cobalt loading (≤2 mol%) and for the catalysts with 4 mol% cobalt loading prepared by sol–gel and co-precipitation. Co 3O 4 crystallites or agglomerates are the predominant species in the catalysts with high cobalt loading prepared by incipient wetness impregnation and solid dispersion. An optimized CoO x/Al 2O 3 catalyst shows high activity in SCR of NO by C 3H 8 (100% conversion of NO at 723 K, GHSV: 10,000 h −1). The activity of the selective catalytic reduction of NO by C 3H 8 increases with the increase of cobalt–alumina interactions in the catalysts. The influences of cobalt loading and catalyst preparation method on the catalytic performance suggest that tiny CoAl 2O 4 crystallites highly dispersed on alumina are responsible for the efficient catalytic reduction of NO, whereas Co 3O 4 crystallites catalyze the combustion of C 3H 8 only. 相似文献

In this work, a kinetic model is constructed to simulate sulfur deactivation of the NO x storage performance of BaO/Al 2O 3 and Pt/BaO/Al 2O 3 catalysts. The model is based on a previous model for NO x storage under sulfur-free conditions. In the present model the storage of NO x is allowed on two storage sites, one for complete NO x uptake and one for a slower NO x sorption. The adsorption of SO x is allowed on both of these NO x storage sites and on one additional site which represent bulk storage. The present model is built-up of six sub-models: (i) NO x storage under sulfur-free conditions; (ii) SO 2 storage on NO x storage sites; (iii) SO 2 oxidation; (iv) SO 3 storage on bulk sites; (v) SO 2 interaction with platinum in the presence of H 2; (vi) oxidation of accumulated sulfur compounds on platinum by NO 2. Data from flow reactor experiments are used in the implementation of the model. The model is tested for simulation of experiments for NO x storage before exposure to sulfur and after pre-treatments either with SO 2 + O 2 or SO 2 + H 2. The simulations show that the model is able to describe the main features observed experimentally. 相似文献

Catalytic performance for partial oxidation of methane (POM) to synthesis gas was studied over the Rh/Al 2O 3 catalysts with Rh loadings between 0.1 and 3 wt%. It was found that the ignition temperature of POM reaction increased with the decreasing of the Rh loadings in the catalysts. For the POM reaction over the catalysts with high (≥1 wt%) Rh loadings, steady-state reactivity was observed. For the reaction over the catalysts with low (≤0.25 wt%) Rh loadings, however, oscillations in CH 4 and reaction products (CO, H 2, and CO 2) were observed. Comparative studies using H 2-TPR, O 2-TPD and high temperature in situ Raman spectroscopy techniques were carried out in order to elucidate the relation between the redox property of the Rh species in the Rh/Al 2O 3 with different Rh loadings and the performance of the catalysts for the reaction. Three kinds of oxidized rhodium species, i.e. the rhodium oxide species insignificantly affected by the support (RhO x), that intimately interacting with the Al 2O 3 surface (Rh iO x) and the Rh(AlO 2) y species formed by diffusion of rhodium oxides in to sublayers of Al 2O 3 [C.P. Hwang, C.T. Yeh, Q.M. Zhu, Catal. Today, 51 (1999) 93.], were identified by H 2-TPR and O 2-TPD experiments. Among them, the first two species can be easily reduced by H 2 at temperature below 350 °C, while the last one can only be reduced by H 2 at temperature above 500 °C. The ignition temperatures of POM reaction over the catalysts are closely related to the temperature at which most of the RhO x and Rh iO x species can be reduced by CH 4 in the reaction mixture. Compared to the Rh/Al 2O 3 with high Rh loadings, the catalysts with low Rh loadings contain more Rh iO x species which possess stronger RhO bond strength and are more difficult to be reduced than RhO x by the reaction mixture. Higher temperature is therefore required to ignite the POM reaction over the catalysts with lower Rh loadings. The oscillation during the POM reaction over the Rh/Al 2O 3 with low Rh loadings can be related to the behaviour of Rh(AlO 2) y species in the catalyst switching cyclically from the oxidized state to the reduced state during the reaction. 相似文献

A series of La(Co, Mn, Fe) 1−x(Cu, Pd) xO 3 perovskites having high specific surface areas and nanosized crystal domains was prepared by reactive grinding. The solids were characterized by N 2 adsorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), temperature programmed desorption (TPD) of O 2, NO + O 2, C 3H 6, in the absence or presence of 5% H 2O, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, as well as activity tests towards NO reduction by propene under the conditions of 3000 ppm NO, 3000 ppm C 3H 6, 1% O 2, 0 or 10% H 2O, and 50,000 h −1 space velocity. The objective was to investigate the influence of H 2O addition on catalytic behavior. A good performance (100% NO conversion, 77% N 2 yield, and 90% C 3H 6 conversion) was achieved at 600 °C over LaFe 0.8Cu 0.2O 3 under a dry feed stream. With the exposure of LaFe 0.8Cu 0.2O 3 to a humid atmosphere containing 10% water vapor, the catalytic activity was slightly decreased yielding 91% NO conversion, 51% N 2 yield, and 86% C 3H 6 conversion. A competitive adsorption between H 2O vapor with O 2 and NO molecules at anion vacancies over LaFe 0.8Cu 0.2O 3 was found by means of TPD studies here. A deactivation mechanism was therefore proposed involving the occupation of available active sites by water vapor, resulting in an inhibition of catalytic activity in C 3H 6 + NO + O 2 reaction. This H 2O deactivation was also verified to be strictly reversible by removing steam from the feed. 相似文献

Pd loaded on various kinds of monolayer supports was applied for selective reduction of NO by methane in the presence of O 2 and water vapor. Pd/WO 3/Al 2O 3 exhibited the highest conversion of NO to N 2 among Pd loaded monolayer supports. The catalyst was relatively tolerant and reversible upon the exposure of water vapor. This is due to the enhanced amount of Brønsted acid sites under the moisture as evidenced by the IR measurement of adsorbed pyridine. The Brønsted acid sites generated on WO 3/Al 2O 3 support were required to give the dispersed Pd species, similar to on the zeolite. 相似文献

Micro-channel plates with dimension of 1 mm × 0.3 mm × 48 mm were prepared by chemical etching of stainless steel plates followed by wash coating of CeO 2 and Al 2O 3 on the channels. After coating the support on the plate, Pt, Co, and Cu were added to the plate by incipient wetness method. Reaction experiments of a single reactor showed that the micro-channel reactor coated with CuO/CeO 2 catalyst was highly selective for CO oxidation while the one coated with Pt-Co/Al 2O 3 catalyst was highly active for CO oxidation. The 7-layered reactors coated with two different catalysts were prepared by laser welding and the performances of each reactor were tested in large scale of PROX conditions. The multi-layered reactor coated with Pt-Co/Al 2O 3 catalyst was highly active for PROX and the outlet concentration of CO gradually increased with the O 2/CO ratio due to the oxidation of H 2 which maintained the reactor temperature. The multi-layered reactor coated with CuO/CeO 2 showed lower catalytic activity than that coated with Pt catalyst, but its selectivity was not changed with the increase of O 2/CO ratios due to the high selectivity. In order to combine advantages (high activity and high selectivity) of the two individual catalysts (Pt-Co/Al 2O 3, CuO/CeO 2), a serial reactor was prepared by connecting the two multi-layered micro-channel reactors with different catalysts. The prepared serial reactor exhibited excellent performance for PROX. 相似文献

Silver–aluminum mixed oxide catalyst (Ag–Al 2O 3) prepared by the sol–gel method was studied for the selective reduction of NO by various alkanes in the presence of water vapor. As the carbon number of alkanes increases, the de-NO x activity and water tolerance were markedly increased. In the case of n-octane as a reductant, the presence of water vapor markedly promoted NO reduction. The results of reaction studies and in situ IR experiment showed that the possible reasons for the promoting effect by water vapor are the inhibition of the n-octane oxidation by O 2 and the suppression of the poisoning effect caused by carboxylate and carbonate species. Among various alumina-supported transition metal catalysts, Ag–Al 2O 3 showed the highest activity for SCR by n-octane. Ag–Al 2O 3 showed higher NO conversion to N 2 and selectivity than alumina-supported Pt and Cu-ZSM-5 catalysts for the selective reduction of NO by n-octane and i-octane. 相似文献

The C 3H 6 + NO + O 2 reaction has been studied in a wide range of temperatures (ca. 250–400 °C) and oxygen concentrations (0–5% O 2) over potassium-modified Ir surfaces. The in situ electrochemical controlled concept of catalysts promotion was used by interfacing a polycrystalline Ir thin film with a potassium β″-Al 2O 3 solid electrolyte disc, a K + conductor. At low oxygen concentrations (i.e., at reducing conditions), the effect of potassium on the Ir activity and selectivity is negligible. However, at higher oxygen concentrations (oxidizing conditions), strong K-induced poisoning on both propene and NO turnover consumption rates, as high as 85% and 65%, respectively, were recorded. Significant reduction on the system selectivity towards N 2 was also recorded under these conditions (from 100% over K-free Ir surface to 70% on K-modified Ir surfaces). The performance of Ir under alkali promotion is dramatically different to that reported in the literature for Pt or Pd under similar conditions, where strong promotional effects have been found. This very different behaviour may be understood in terms of the electronic influence of co-adsorbed potassium on the adsorption strengths of the neighbor reactants on the Ir surface. 相似文献

Regeneration of S-poisoned Pd/Al 2O 3 catalysts for the abatement of methane emissions from natural gas vehicles was addressed in this work. Investigations were devoted to determine the temperature threshold allowing for catalyst reactivation under different CH4 containing atmospheres. Under lean combustion conditions in the presence of excess O2, partial regeneration took place only above 750 °C after decomposition of stable sulphate species adsorbed on the support. Short CH4-reducing, O2-free pulses led to partial catalyst reactivation already at 550 °C and to practically complete regeneration at 600 °C. Also in this case reactivation was associated with SO2 release due to the decomposition of stable support sulphates likely promoted by CH4 activation onto the reduced metallic Pd surface. Rich combustion pulses with CH4/O2 = 2 were equally effective to CH4-reducing pulses in catalyst regeneration. These results suggest that a regeneration strategy based on periodical natural gas pulses fed to the catalyst by a by-pass line might be efficient in limiting the effects of S-poisoning of palladium catalysts for the abatement of CH4 emissions from natural gas engine. 相似文献
