Effect of Calcinations Temperature of Cu/Ti-PILCs for Selective Catalytic Reduction of NO by Propylene

Abstract

Catalyst Cu/Ti-PILCs were used for selective catalytic reduction of NO by propylene. The effect of calcinations temperature of Cu/PILCs on catalytic activity, pore structure and active species were investigated. Cu/Ti-PILCs calcined at 500°C had best activity. On 500°C-calcined catalyst, the Cu species was highly-dispersed and existed mainly as Cu2＋species which was the catalytic active component to SCR reaction. The pore structure of Cu/Ti-PILCs had good thermal stability below 600°C calcinations. 700°C-calcined catalyst has poor catalytic activity. High-temperature calcinations destroyed the catalyst’s pore structure, and formed CuO bulky aggregation which had no catalytic activity, all these led to the decrease of the SBET of catalysts and the drop of catalytic activity.
