Abstract
F-doped V2O5-WO3/TiO2 catalyst has been confirmed to have excellent denitration activity at low temperatures. Since the V2O5-WO3/TiO2 catalyst is a structure-sensitive catalyst, the loading order of V2O5 and WO3 may affect its denitration performance. In this paper, a series of F-doped V2O5-WO3/TiO2 catalysts with different V2O5 and WO3 loading orders were synthesized to investigate the effect of denitration performance at low temperatures. It was found that the loading orders led to significant gaps in denitration performance in the range of 120-240 °C. The results indicated loading WO3 first better utilized the oxygen vacancies on the TiF carrier promoting the generation of reduced vanadium species. In addition, loading WO3 first facilitated the dispersion of V2O5 thus enhanced the NH3 adsorption capacity of VWTiF. In situ DRIFT verified the rapid reaction between NO2, nitrate, and nitrite species and adsorbed NH3 over the VWTiF, confirming that the NH3 selective catalytic reduction (NH3-SCR) reaction over VWTiF at 240 °C proceeded by the Langmuir-Hinshelwood (L-H) mechanism. This research established the constitutive relationship between the loading order of V2O5 and WO3 and the denitration performance of the F-doped VWTi catalyst providing insights into the catalyst design process.

[PMID: 37980014 DOI: 10.1016/j.jes.2022.12.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2022] [Revised: 12/08/2022] [Accepted: 12/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2023]
Abstract
The synthesis process of conventional Mn-based denitrification catalysts is relatively complex and expensive. In this paper, a resource application of chlorella was proposed, and a Chlorella@Mn composite denitrification catalyst was innovatively synthesized by electrostatic interaction. The Chlorella@Mn composite denitrification catalyst prepared under the optimal conditions (0.54 g/L Mn2+ concentration, 20 million chlorellas/mL concentration, 450°C calcination temperature) exhibited a well-developed pore structure and large specific surface area (122 m2/g). Compared with MnOx alone, the Chlorella@Mn composite catalyst achieved superior performance, with ∼100% NH3 selective catalytic reduction (NH3-SCR) denitrification activity at 100-225°C. The results of NH3 temperature-programmed desorption (NH3-TPD) and H2 temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR) showed that the catalyst had strong acid sites and good redox properties. Zeta potential testing showed that the electronegativity of the chlorella cell surface could be used to enrich with Mn2+. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) confirmed that Chlorella@Mn had a high content of Mn3+ and surface chemisorbed oxygen. In-situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (in-situ DRIFTS) experimental results showed that both Langmuir-Hinshelwood (L-H) and Eley-Rideal (E-R) mechanisms play a role in the denitrification process on the surface of the Chlorella@Mn catalyst, where the main intermediate nitrate species is monodentate nitrite. The presence of SO2 promoted the generation and strengthening of Brønsted acid sites, but also generated more sulfate species on the surface, thereby reducing the denitrification activity of the Chlorella@Mn catalyst. The Chlorella@Mn composite catalyst had the characteristics of short preparation time, simple process and low cost, making it promising for industrial application.

Abstract
Herein, an alumina-based bimetallic catalyst (Cu1Mn7@γ-Al2O3) was synthesized for bisphenol A (BPA) degradation in the catalytic ozonation process. The catalytic ozonation system could degrade 93.9% of BPA within 30 min under the conditions of pH = 7.0, 10 mg L-1 O3 concentration, and 24 g L-1 catalyst dosage compared to ozone alone (21.0%). The enhanced BPA degradation efficiency was attributed to the abundant catalytic sites and synergistic effects of Cu and Mn. The results revealed that the synergistic interaction between Cu and Mn effectively accelerated the electron transfer process on the catalyst surface, thus promoting the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Further studies indicated that the BPA degradation in Cu1Mn7@γ-Al2O3/O3 system predominantly followed the ·OH and O2·- oxidation pathway. Based on the density functional theory (DFT) calculations and intermediates detected by LC-MS analysis, two pathways for BPA degradation in the Cu1Mn7@γ-Al2O3/O3 system were proposed. The toxicity estimation illustrated that the toxicity of BPA and its byproducts was effectively reduced in the Cu1Mn7@γ-Al2O3/O3 system. This work provides a new protocol for O3 activation and pollutant elimination through a novel bimetallic catalyst during water purification.

Abstract
Mn-based catalysts have attracted much attention in the field of the low-temperature NH3 selective catalytic reduction (NH3-SCR) of NO. However, their poor SO2 resistance, low N2 selectivity, and narrow operation window limit the industrial application of Mn-based oxide catalysts. In this work, NiMnFeOx catalysts were prepared by the layered double hydroxide (LDH)-derived oxide method, and the optimized Ni0.5Mn0.5Fe0.5Ox catalyst had the best denitration activity, excellent N2 selectivity, a wider active temperature range (100-250 °C), higher thermal stability, and better H2O and/or SO2 resistance. A transient reaction revealed that Ni0.5Mn0.5Fe0.5Ox inhibited the NH3 + O2 + NOx pathway to generate N2O, which may be the main reason for its improved N2 selectivity. Combining experimental measurements and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we elucidated at the atomic level that sulfated NiMnFeOx (111) induces the adjustment of the acidity/basicity of up and down spins and the ligand field reconfiguration of the Mn sites, which improves the overall reactivity of NiMnFeOx catalysts. This work provides atomic-level insights into the promotion of NH3-SCR activity by NiMnFeOx composite oxides, which are important for the practical design of future low-temperature SCR technologies.

Abstract
Alkali metal poisoning has been an intricate and unsolved issue confining the catalytic activity of NH3-SCR catalysts up to now. Herein, the effect of NaCl and KCl on catalytic activity of CrMn catalyst for NH3-SCR of NOx was systematically investigated to clarify the alkali metal poisoning by combined experiments and theoretical calculations. It unveiled that NaCl/KCl could deactivate CrMn catalyst due to the decrease in specific surface area, electron transfer (Cr5++Mn3+↔Cr3++Mn4+), redox ability and oxygen vacancy and NH3/NO adsorption. In addition, NaCl cut off E-R mechanism reactions by inactivating surface Brønsted/Lewis acid sites. DFT calculations revealed that (1) Na and K could weaken MnO bond, (2) competitive adsorption between Cl and NH3 was a main reason weakening Lewis acid, (3) Cl adsorption was also a major cause diminishing Brønsted acid and oxygen vacancy, (4) Both Na and K seriously impeded NO adsorption/activation, (5) NaCl/KCl increased the reaction heat of H2O desorption (rate-determining step) in E-R mechanism reactions and KCl elevated its energy barrier in L-H mechanism reactions. Thus, this study provides the deep understanding of alkali metal poisoning and a well strategy to synthesize NH3-SCR catalysts with outstanding alkali metal resistance.

Abstract
Expecting to gain an excellent operating temperature window and superior catalytic activity of the catalyst in SCR reaction, the Fe-Ce bimetallic oxide catalyst was firstly prepared and sulfated with two different sulfation strategies by H2SO4. It is interestingly found that both the two sulfation strategies can significantly broaden the operating temperature window of the catalyst. In particular, the SFC and FCS both exhibit superior resistance to H2O + SO2, and the NOx conversion of the SFC even displays no changes in the coexistence of H2O and SO2. The characterization results show that different sulfation strategies can generate amorphous sulfate species rather than bulk sulfate species. Furthermore, more surface-adsorbed oxygen as well as higher contents of Ce3+ and Fe3+ can be obtained on the sulfated catalysts, especially for the SFC catalyst. Meanwhile, different sulfation strategies will progressively enhance the redox ability and amounts of strong acid sites, which will contribute to broadening the operating temperature window for the NH3-SCR reaction. Additionally, different sulfation methods do not change the reaction pathway of catalysts. However, the adsorption of ad-NH3 species and reactivity of ad-NOx species are significantly changed. These lead to the reaction pathway shifts to E-R direct over the SFC and the promotion of E-R and L-H mechanisms over the FCS catalyst.

Abstract
Selective catalytic reduction with ammonia is the mainstream technology of flue gas denitration (de-NOx). The reducibility and acid site are two important factors affecting the de-NOx performance, and effective regulation between them is the key to obtain a highly efficient de-NOx catalyst. Herein, a series of Mn-Fe-BTC with different ratios of Mn and Fe are synthesized, among which 2Mn-1Fe-BTC with 2:1 molar ratio of Mn and Fe has excellent low-temperature (LT) de-NOx performance (above 90% NO conversion between 60 and 270 °C) and good tolerance to H2O and SO2 poisoning (88% NO conversion at 150 °C with 100 ppm of SO2 and/or 6% H2O). It is revealed that the reducibility properties and acid sites of Mn-Fe-BTC can be flexibly tuned by the ratio of Mn and Fe. The difference in electronegativity between Fe and Mn leads to the redistribution of valence electrons, which enables the controllable reducibility of Mn-Fe-BTC. Furthermore, different amounts of Mn and Fe lead to different electron transport, which determines the type and number of acid sites. The synergistic effect of Mn and Fe endows Mn-Fe-BTC with enhanced surface molecular adsorption capacity and enables the catalyst to selectively chemisorb NH3 and NO at different active sites. This research provides guidance for the flexible regulation of reducibility and acid site of LT de-NOx catalyst.

Abstract
The facet-dependent reactivity of CrMn catalysts was still unclear, hindering the further enhancement of their low-temperature SCR performance. Herein, the facet-dependent reactivity of CrMn1.5O4 catalyst for NH3-SCR of NOx was innovatively illustrated by numerous characterizations and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Exposed (100) facet of CrMn1.5O4 catalyst exhibited best low-temperature SCR activity with ≥90 % NO conversion within 148-296 °C and 2.86 × 10-3 mol/(g·s) reaction rate within 160-240 °C. The characterizations revealed that (100) facet could induce the increase of BET specific area, electron transfer, concentration of Mn4+ and Oα, surface acidity, redox ability, NH3 and NOx adsorption/activation capacity. Subsequently, DFT calculations demonstrated that (100) facet exhibited the strongest affinity for NH3 and NO due to its unique 3O3c-Mn5c-2O4c bond and abundant charges transfer near the active adsorption sites, and Brønsted acid and oxygen vacancies were most easily formed on (100) facet. Furthermore, H2O formation as the rate determining step easily occurred on (100) facet. Eventually, we successfully improved the low-temperature SCR activity of CrMn1.5O4 catalyst by further tailoring highly active (100) facet from 0.754 to 0.865. This work provides the deeper understanding of facet-dependent reactivity and a good strategy to improve the catalytic activity of the catalysts.

Abstract
NO is a major environmental pollutant. MnO2 is often used as a denitrification catalyst with poor N2 selectivity and weak SO2 resistance. Kiwi twig biochar was chosen to modify MnO2 samples by using the hydrothermal method. The NO conversion rates of the biochar-modified samples were >90% at 125–225 °C. Kiwi twig biochar made the C2MnO2 sample with a larger specific surface area, a higher number of acidic sites and Oβ/Oα molar ratio, leading to more favorable activity at high temperatures and better SO2 resistance. Moreover, the inhibition of the NH3 oxidation reaction and the Mn3+ → Mn4+ process played a crucial role in the redox cycle. What was more, Brønsted acidic sites present on the C1MnO2 sample participate in the reaction more rapidly. This study identified the role of biochar in the reaction process and provides a reference for the wide application of biochar.

Abstract
A MnCeInO x catalyst was prepared by a coprecipitation method for denitrification of NH3-SCR (selective catalytic reduction). The catalysts were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffractometry, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis, H2 temperature-programmed reduction, and NH3 temperature-programmed desorption. The NH3-SCR activity and H2O and SO2 resistance of the catalysts were evaluated. The test results showed that the SCR and water resistance and sulfur resistance were good in the range of 125-225 °C. The calcination temperature of the Mn6Ce0.3In0.7O x catalyst preparation was studied. The crystallization of the Mn6Ce0.3In0.7O x catalyst was poor when calcined at 300 °C; however, the crystallization is excessive at a 500 °C calcination temperature. The influence of space velocity on the performance of the catalyst is great at 100-225 °C. FTIR test results showed that indium distribution on the surface of the catalyst reduced the content of sulfate on the surface, protected the acidic site of MnCe, and improved the sulfur resistance of the catalyst. The excellent performance of the Mn6Ce0.3In0.7O x catalyst may be due to its high content of Mn4+, surface adsorbed oxygen species, high specific surface area, redox sites and acid sites on the surface, high turnover frequency, and low apparent activation energy.

RSC Adv 2022; 12:22881-22892. [PMID: 36105980 PMCID: PMC9377156 DOI: 10.1039/d2ra04085a] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2022] [Accepted: 08/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Perovskites with flexible structures and excellent redox properties have attracted considerable attention in industry, and their denitration activities can be further improved with metal substitution. In order to investigate the effect of Ce and Cu substitution on the physicochemical properties of perovskite in NH3-SCR system, a series of La1−xCexMn1−yCuyO3 (x = 0, 0.1, y = 0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4) catalysts were prepared by citrate sol-gel method and employed for NO removal in the simulated flue gas, and the physical and chemical properties of the catalysts were studied using XRD, SEM, BET, XPS, DRIFT characterizations. The Ce substitution on A-site cation of LaMnO3 can improve the denitration activity of the perovskite catalyst, and La0.9Ce0.1MnO3 displays NO conversion of 86.7% at 350 °C. The characterization results indicate that the high denitration activity of La0.9Ce0.1MnO3 is mainly attributed to the larger surface area, which contributes to the adsorption of NH3 and NO. Besides, the appropriate Cu substitution on B-site cation of La0.9Ce0.1MnO3 can further improve the denitration activity of perovskite catalyst, and La0.9Ce0.1Mn0.8Cu0.2O3 displays the NO conversion of 91.8% at 350 °C. Although the specific surface area of La0.9Ce0.1Mn0.8Cu0.2O3 is lower than La0.9Ce0.1MnO3, the Cu active sites and the Ce3+ contents are more developed, making many reaction units formed on the catalyst surface and redox properties of catalyst improved. In addition, strong metal interaction (Ce4+ + Mn2+ + Cu2+ ↔ Ce3+ + Mn3+/Mn4+ + Cu+) and high concentrations of chemical adsorbed oxygen and lattice oxygen both strengthen the redox reaction on catalyst surface, thus contributing to the better denitration activity of La0.9Ce0.1Mn0.8Cu0.2O3. Therefore, appropriate cerium and copper substitution will markedly improve the denitration activity of La–Mn perovskite catalyst. We also reasonably conclude a multiple reaction mechanism during NH3-SCR denitration process basing on DRIFT results, which includes the Eley–Rideal mechanism and Langmuir–Hinshelwood mechanism. Perovskites with flexible structures and excellent redox properties have attracted considerable attention in industry, and their denitration activities can be further improved with metal substitution.![]()

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2021; 420:126640. [PMID: 34329099 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2021.126640] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2021] [Revised: 06/29/2021] [Accepted: 07/11/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Electrochemical removal of nitrogen oxides (NOx) by solid electrolyte cells (SECs) is a promising technology due to no required reductant. Herein, a series of La0.8Sr0.2Mn1-xNixO3 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.5) perovskites were first synthesized and utilized as the electrode materials of SECs. The role of Ni substitution in electrode performance and NOx reduction mechanism were revealed by various experimental characterization and first-principle calculations. The results indicate that the moderate Ni substitution (x ≤ 0.3) increased the NOx conversion of electrodes while reduced the polarization resistance. The further investigation shows that this improvement was attributed to the more surface oxygen vacancies, better reducibility and higher Mn4+ proportion of the Ni-substituted perovskites. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) shows that these changes facilitated the NOx adsorption and dissociation processes on the electrode. According to first-principle calculations, the Ni-substituted perovskite had a lower formation energy of surface oxygen vacancy, while the NO molecule adsorbed on defect surface gained more electrons thus was easier to be reduced and dissociated. Finally, the electrode performance at different operating temperatures and the operational stability were verified.
