Abstract

Catalysis plays a critical role in the quest for sustainable automotive technology, particularly in reducing harmful emissions from vehicles. The catalysts are required to operate efficiently in dynamic and challenging environments. This study introduces innovative deNOx catalysts featuring nominal concentrations of Pd and Re nanoparticles doped on a NiMo support. The best-performing fabricated catalyst demonstrated impressive 95 % NOx conversion at 250°C, significantly outperforming traditional systems and reducing ammonia slip. Integrating nickel as the support material was strategic choice to leverage novel induction heating-assisted catalytic system. This approach is particularly advantageous when starting cold engine, reducing harmful NOx emissions when the catalyst is not fully operational. Functional monolith model of car converter catalyst with similar composition was also developed. This research presents novel catalyst solution that achieves high deNOx efficiency while offering a cost-effective alternative to traditional methods. Induction heating enhances the catalyst's performance, particularly at lower temperatures, showcasing significant improvement over conventional thermal methods.
