Cerium Oxide-Based Catalysts for Low-Temperature Selective Catalytic Reduction of NO_x with NH_3: A Review

摘要

The selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO_(ix ) with ammonia is an effective method to remove NO_(ix ) from stationary and mobile sources. Cerium oxides (CeO_(ix )) have been studied extensively as low-temperature SCR catalysts since they manifest prominent oxygen storage capacity in catalysis. This paper reviews the recent progress on the Ce-based catalysts for low-temperature SCR de-NO_(ix ) with NH_(3), including three categories, single CeO_(ix ), Ce-based multimetal oxide, and Ce-based multimetal oxides with support. In the section on single CeO_(ix ), the reasons for the significant catalytic activity and the function of CeO_(ix ) in the catalytic reactions are systematically reviewed. For multimetal oxide catalysts, the various roles played by the components of catalysts are summarized from several aspects. In the introduction of supported metal oxide catalysts, according to the type of support, the function of each support in the reaction is analyzed methodically. Additionally, we investigated the reaction mechanism of low-temperature SCR of NO_(ix ), including Eley–Rideal (E–R) and Langmuir–Hinshelwood (L–H) mechanisms. Finally, the development outlook and direction of the application of cerium oxide-based catalysts in the field of low-temperature SCR of NO_(ix ) is prospected.
