Abstract

Flux Response Technology (FRT) has been successfully adapted as an in situ perturbation technique in dynamic gas sorption measurements to extract hydrocarbon diffusion coefficients in alumina/CeZrOx washcoats of cordierite monoliths. FRT works by measuring minuscule changes in flowrate between two gas streams for any gaseous process involving a change in volume (δV/δt). Ad- and desorption transients, which can be collected during the same experimental run have been analysed using the zero length column (ZLC) method to study propane diffusivity within an alumina/CeZrOx washcoat as a function of temperature. Extracted diffusivities and activation energies compare favourably with literature data.
