Abstract

Perovskite-type oxides containing rare earth ions and transition metals are of interest for catalytic oxidation and reduction reactions associated with automotive exhaust emission control. They are known to exhibit a good catalytic activity in the total oxidation reaction of carbon monoxide or hydrocarbon and removal of nitrogen oxides. By partially substitution of A and B ions of the perovskite with others, a wide variety of mixed oxides A1-xA’xB1-yB’yO3 can be obtained, allowing the systematic modification of the catalytic properties. We presented the preparation and the catalytic properties of and La0.7Sr0.3BO3 (B = Mn, Fe, Ni) perovskites in total oxidation of m-xylene in previous report. Obtained results showed that they exhibit a good catalytic activity in total oxidation of m-xylene at relatively low reaction temperature. In present work, the activation energy of total oxidation reaction of m-xylene over these catalysts are determined. The results show that the activation energy of studied catalyst is ranging about from 11.5 to 13.4 kcal/mol. The replacement of Mn by Fe and Ni in La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 perovskite catalyst reduces the catalytic property of La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 catalyst and increases the activation energy of the total oxidation reaction of m-xylene.
