Abstract
Abstract 3 wt.% of V2O5 is loaded onto the activated semi-coke (V2O5/ASC) via impregnation method and used for low temperature selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx with NH3. The prepared V2O5/ASC catalyst yields an over 90% NO conversion rate with excellent N2 selectivity at 250 °C with a space velocity of 12,000 h−1. The adsorption state of different species and reaction behaviors under various conditions are systematically examined with in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (in situ DRIFTS). It is evidenced that NH3 and NO are absorbed on different active sites over the V2O5/ASC catalyst. At the reaction temperature (200 °C) in this study, NH3 is mainly absorbed on the Lewis acid sites provided by V2O5, and NO is mainly absorbed on the active sites originated from the support ASC. In addition, the NH3-SCR process takes place according to two pathways, including reaction between the coordinated NH3 and gaseous NO (E–R mechanism), and reaction between the absorbed NO2 and coordinated NH3 (L–H mechanism). The latter one plays a primary role for the improved low-temperature SCR performance of V2O5/ASC catalyst.
