Abstract

AbstractThis Minireview presents an overview of the advancement and capabilities of the steady‐state isotopic transient kinetic analysis in the selective catalytic reduction of NOx. Firstly, a brief overview of the method and the kinetic parameters of catalyst‐surface reaction intermediates, including concentration and coverage of surface intermediates, surface residence time and intrinsic turnover frequency (TOF), is provided. Furthermore, the focus is on the application of SSITKA or a unique combination of SSITKA‐DRIFTS for the identification of active and/or inactive (spectators) species in NH3−SCR, H2−SCR and HCs−SCR. Different forms of adsorbed species and their formation rates revealing the main elementary steps on the catalyst's surface involving labeled molecules are discussed. The emphasis is laid on the optimization and design of industrial catalysts.
