Abstract
HypothesisTransition metal supported TiO2 is one of the hottest catalysts in the field of selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of nitrogen oxides. Various formulas have been put forward for an enhanced activity. However, seldom work emphasizes on easy and fast screening of an effective catalyst. ExperimentsIn this work, Diffuse Reflection Fourier Transform Infrared (DRIFTS) screened catalyst by analyzing intermediates during SCR. FindingsTiO2 provided main adsorption sites for NH3 and the “Eley-Rideal” mechanism dominated the catalysis. The transition metals served as the bridge of electron transport. Moreover, the area reduction rate of adsorbed NH3 and NH4+ species in DRIFTS represented the electron-transfer rate as well as catalytic activity. In other words, a faster area reduction indicated a better SCR activity. Therefore, this work supplied a fast strategy to screen the most effective catalyst among different materials even without using a nitrogen oxides detector. At the same time, less ammonia and nitrogen oxides were used or discharged.
