Abstract
A series of nonplatinic ceria-based oxides supported catalysts LaCoO3/K2CO3/S (S=CeO2, Ce0.75Zr0.25O2 or 5%Y/Ce0.75Zr0.25O2) were prepared by successive impregnation and employed for lean-burn NOx trapping. It is found that the doping of Zr or YZr into CeO2 facilitates the formation of CeZrO binary or YCeZrO ternary solid solutions, increasing the specific surface area and improving the redox property of ceria. The results of EXAFS and H2-TPR reveal that the LaCoO3 in the solid solution supported catalysts possesses higher dispersion and better reducibility than that in CeO2 supported one. The result of O2-TPD shows that the surface active oxygen species are remarkably increased after loading LaCoO3 on the supports. The YCeZrO ternary solid solution supported catalyst containing 5 wt % K2CO3 exhibits the best performance for NO oxidation and reduction at 350 °C, showing a high NO-to-NO2 conversion (66.5%) at lean condition, and a very high NOx reduction percentage (98.2%) and an extremely high NOx-to-N2 s...
