In order to investigate the influence of MnO2 modification methods on the catalytic performance of CuO/CeO2 catalyst for NO reduction by CO,two series of catalysts(xCuyMn/Ce and xCu/yMn/Ce) were prepared by co-impregnation and stepwise-impregnation methods,and characterized by means of X-ray diffraction(XRD),Raman spectra,H2-temperature programmed reduction(H2-TPR),in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectra(in situ DRIFTS) techniques.Furthermore,the catalytic performances of these catalysts were evaluated by NO+CO model reaction.The obtained results indicated that:(1) The catalysts acquired by co-impregnation method exhibited stronger interaction owing to the more sufficient contact among each component of the catalysts compared with the catalysts obtained by stepwise-impregnation method,which was beneficial to the improvement of the reduction behavior;(2) The excellent reduction behavior was conducive to the formation of low valence state copper species(Cu+/Cu0) and more oxygen vacancies(especially the surface synergetic oxygen vacancies(SSOV,Cu+-□-Mn(4–x)+)) during the reaction process,which were beneficial to the adsorption of CO species and the dissociation of NO species,respectively,and further promoted the enhancement of the catalytic performance.Finally,in order to further understand the difference between the catalytic performances of these catalysts prepared by co-impregnation and stepwise-impregnation methods,a possible reaction mechanism(schematic diagram) was tentatively proposed.
The CuO/CeO2 catalysts were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction(XRD),laser Raman spectroscopy(LRS),X-ray photoelectronic spectroscopy(XPS),temperature-programmed reduction(TPR),in situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR) and NO+CO reaction.The results revealed that the low temperature(<150 °C) catalytic performances were enhanced for CO pretreated samples.During CO pretreatment,the surface Cu+/Cu0 and oxygen vacancies on ceria surface were present.The low valence copper species activated the adsorbed CO and surface oxygen vacancies facilitated the NO dissociation.These effects in turn led to higher activities of CuO/CeO2 for NO reduction.The current study provided helpful understandings of active sites and reaction mechanism in NO+CO reaction.
采用浸渍法以Cu(CH3COO)2为前驱体,在N2气氛下于不同温度下焙烧,制备了CuOx/CeO2催化剂。结合XRD,H2-TPR,XPS等表征技术,以及CO-PROX(Preferential Oxidation of CO)反应测试,获得了CuOx/CeO2催化剂中不同Cu物种随焙烧温度变化的分布信息及其对CO-PROX催化活性的影响。结果表明:CuOx/CeO2催化剂CO-PROX催化活性变化的趋势与催化剂表面分散态Cu+物种变化趋势一致,随着焙烧温度从200℃升至500℃,催化剂表面的分散态Cu+先增加后减少,当分散态Cu+在焙烧温度250~400℃达到最多时,其催化活性最好,随后下降,说明分散态Cu+对CO-PROX反应活性起关键作用。
