Abstract

The preliminary mechanism research of NH3-SCR and NH3 oxidation over Cu/SAPO-34 catalyst is explored. The XRD, SEM, in situ EPR, NH3-SCR, NH3 oxidation test, DRIFTs, and the kinetic tests were performed for the bulk characterization, catalytic activity measurement, and the mechanism estimation. The NH3-SCR result showed that Cu/SAPO-34 revealed excellent activity during 120–600 °C, while the NH3 oxidation appeared above 300 °C and caused the decline of NO conversion. The order of various reactants (NO, NH3, and O2 for NH3-SCR and NH3, O2, for NH3 oxidation) was estimated by the kinetic tests to explain their behaviors during the NH3-SCR process. The NH3-SCR presents strong dependence on adsorbed NH3 species on Cu/SAPO-34, but the NH3 oxidation does not. Furthermore, the EPR experiment proved that the isolated Cu2+ species are the active sites and the ammonia nitrites species are the intermediate for NH3-SCR over Cu/SAPO-34 catalysts. The different behavior of adsorbed NH3 species in NH3-SCR and NH3 oxidat...
