The catalysts were evaluated for NOx conversion using NH3 as the reductant. Hydrothermal ageing decreased the NOx conversion of V2O5/WO3‐TiO2 catalyst severely over the entire measured tem‐perature range. Interestingly, the NH3‐SCR activity of the silica‐modified catalyst at 220–480℃ is enhanced after ageing. The catalysts were characterized by X‐ray diffraction, nitrogen adsorption, X‐ray fluorescence, Raman spectroscopy, H2 temperature‐programmed reduction, and NH3 temper‐ature‐programmed desorption. The addition of silica inhibited the phase transition from anatase to rutile titania, growth of TiO2 crystallite size and shrinkage of catalyst surface area. Consequently, the vanadia species remained highly dispersed and the hydrothermal stability of the V2O5/WO3‐TiO2 catalyst was significantly improved.展开更多

Results showed that the manganese carbonate (MC) precursor caused mainly Mn2O3, while the manganese nitrate (MN) precursor resulted primarily in MnO2 and the manganese sulfate (MS) precursor was unchanged. The manganese acetate (MA) precursor leaded obtaining a mixture of Mn2O3 and Mn304. NOn conversion decreased in the following order: MA/TiO2 〉 MC/TiO2 〉 MN/TiO2 〉 MS/TiO2 〉 P25, with a calcination temperature of 773 K in air. Catalysts that were prepared by MA and calcined in oxygen performed strong interaction between Ti and Mn, while MnTiO3 was observed. Compared to the catalysts calcined in nitrogen, those calcined in oxygen had larger diameter and smaller surface area and pore. Catalysts that were prepared by MA and calcined in nitrogen tended to gain higher denitration rates than those in air, since they could be prepared with significant specific surface areas. NO., conversion decreased with calcination atmospheres: Nitrogen〉 Air〉 Oxygen. Meanwhile, amorphous Mn2O3 turned into crystalline Mn2O3, when the temperatures increased from 673 to 873 K.展开更多
This work examines the influence of preparation methods on the physicochemical properties and catalytic performance of MnOx‐CeO2 catalysts for selective catalytic reduction of NO by NH3 (NH3‐SCR) at low temperature....This work examines the influence of preparation methods on the physicochemical properties and catalytic performance of MnOx‐CeO2 catalysts for selective catalytic reduction of NO by NH3 (NH3‐SCR) at low temperature. Five different methods, namely, mechanical mixing, impregnation,hydrothermal treatment, co‐precipitation, and a sol‐gel technique, were used to synthesizeMnOx‐CeO2 catalysts. The catalysts were characterized in detail, and an NH3‐SCR model reaction waschosen to evaluate the catalytic performance. The results showed that the preparation methodsaffected the catalytic performance in the order: hydrothermal treatment > sol‐gel > co‐precipitation> impregnation > mechanical mixing. This order correlated with the surface Ce3+ and Mn4+ content,oxygen vacancies and surface adsorbed oxygen species concentration, and the amount of acidic sitesand acidic strength. This trend is related to redox interactions between MnOx and CeO2. The catalystformed by a hydrothermal treatment exhibited excellent physicochemical properties, optimal catalyticperformance, and good H2O resistance in NH3‐SCR reaction. This was attributed to incorporationof Mnn+ into the CeO2 lattice to form a uniform ceria‐based solid solution (containing Mn‐O‐Cestructures). Strengthening of the electronic interactions between MnOx and CeO2, driven by thehigh‐temperature and high‐pressure conditions during the hydrothermal treatment also improved the catalyst characteristics. Thus, the hydrothermal treatment method is an efficient and environment‐friendly route to synthesizing low‐temperature denitrification (deNOx) catalysts.展开更多

The undoped and Zr4+, Al3+, and Si4+ doped nano‐rods were used as supports to prepare MnOx/CeO2‐NR, MnOx/CZ‐NR, MnOx/CA‐NR, and MnOx/CS‐NR catalysts, respectively. The prepared supports and catalysts were comprehensively characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high‐resolution TEM, X‐ray diffraction, Raman and N2‐physisorption analyses, hydrogen temperature‐programmed reduction, ammonia temperature‐programmed desorption, in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier‐transform spectroscopic analysis of the NH3 adsorption, and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Moreover, the catalytic performance and H2O+SO2 tolerance of these samples were evaluated through NH3‐selective catalytic reduction (NH3‐SCR) in the absence or presence of H2O and SO2. The obtained results show that the MnOx/CS‐NR catalyst exhibits the highest NOx conversion and the lowest N2O concentration, which result from the largest number of oxygen vacancies and acid sites, the highest Mn4+ content, and the lowest redox ability. The MnOx/CS‐NR catalyst also presents excellent resistance to H2O and SO2. All of these phenomena suggest that Si4+ is the optimal dopant for the MnOx/CeO2‐NR catalyst.展开更多

文摘Catalytic activity and hydrothermal stability are both crucial for the application of the selective catalytic reduction of NO_(x)with NH_(3)(NH_(3)-SCR)catalyst in diesel vehicles.In this study,a tin(Sn)-modified Ce-Nb mixed-oxide catalyst was synthesized as an NH_(3)-SCR catalyst for NO_(x)emission control.After the intro-duction of Sn,both the NH_(3)-SCR activity and the hydrothermal stability of the catalyst were remarkably promoted.Even after hydrothermal aging at 1000℃,the developed Ce_(1)Sn_(2)Nb_(1)O_(x)catalyst achieved more than 90%NO_(x)conversion at 325-500℃.Various methods,including N2-physisorption,X-ray diffraction,in-situ high-temperature X-ray diffraction,high-resolution transmission electron microscopy,X-ray pho-toelectron spectroscopy,X-ray absorption fine-structure spectroscopy,temperature-programmed reduc-tion of hydrogen,temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia,and density functional theory calculations were used to investigate the promotional effects induced by the Sn species.The characteri-zation results showed that the addition of Sn not only promoted the formation of the Ce-Nb active phase but also improved its thermal stability,contributing to the excellent NH_(3)-SCR performance and hydrothermal stability.This study provides an excellent sintering-resistance catalyst for the application of diesel engine NO_(x)emission control.

文摘V2O5/WO3‐TiO2 and V2O5/WO3‐TiO2‐SiO2 catalysts were prepared by a wetness impregnation method, and both the catalysts were hydrothermally aged at 750℃ in 10 vol%H2O/air for 24 h. The catalysts were evaluated for NOx conversion using NH3 as the reductant. Hydrothermal ageing decreased the NOx conversion of V2O5/WO3‐TiO2 catalyst severely over the entire measured tem‐perature range. Interestingly, the NH3‐SCR activity of the silica‐modified catalyst at 220–480℃ is enhanced after ageing. The catalysts were characterized by X‐ray diffraction, nitrogen adsorption, X‐ray fluorescence, Raman spectroscopy, H2 temperature‐programmed reduction, and NH3 temper‐ature‐programmed desorption. The addition of silica inhibited the phase transition from anatase to rutile titania, growth of TiO2 crystallite size and shrinkage of catalyst surface area. Consequently, the vanadia species remained highly dispersed and the hydrothermal stability of the V2O5/WO3‐TiO2 catalyst was significantly improved.

文摘MnO_(x)-CeO_(2)catalysts for the low-temperature selective catalytic reduction(SCR)of NO remain vulnerable to water and sulfur poisoning,limting their practical applications.Herein,we report a hydrophobic-modified MnO_(x)-CeO_(2)catalyst that achieves enhanced NO conversion rate and stability under harsh conditions.The catalyst was synthesized by decorating MnOx crystals with amorphous CeO_(2),followed by loading hydrophobic silica on the external surfaces.The hydrophobic silica allowed the adsorption of NH_(3)and NO and diffusion of H,suppressed the adsorption of H_(2)O,and prevented SO_(2)interaction with the Mn active sites,achieving selective molecular discrimination at the catalyst surface.At 120℃,under H_(2)O and SO_(2)exposure,the optimal hydrophobic catalyst maintains 82%NO conversion rate compared with 69%for the unmodified catalyst.The average adsorption energies of NH_(3),H_(2)O,and SO_(2)decreased by 0.05,0.43,and 0.52 eV,respectively.The NO reduction pathway follows the Eley-Rideal mechanism,NH_(3)^(*)+*→NH_(2)^(*)+H^(*)followed by NH_(2)^(*)+NO^(*)→N_(2)^(*)+H_(2)O^(*),with NH_(3)dehydrogenation being the rate determining step.Hydrophobic modification increased the activation energy for H atom transfer,leading to a minor decrease in the NO conversion rate at 120℃.This work demonstrates a viable strategy for developing robust NH_(3)-S CR catalysts capable of efficient operation in water-and sulfur-rich environments.

文摘The effects of atmospheres and precursors on MnOx/TiO2 catalysts were studied, which were prepared by the impregnation method and tested for their NOx conversion activity in ammonia selective catalytic reduction (NH3-SCR) reactions. Results showed that the manganese carbonate (MC) precursor caused mainly Mn2O3, while the manganese nitrate (MN) precursor resulted primarily in MnO2 and the manganese sulfate (MS) precursor was unchanged. The manganese acetate (MA) precursor leaded obtaining a mixture of Mn2O3 and Mn304. NOn conversion decreased in the following order: MA/TiO2 〉 MC/TiO2 〉 MN/TiO2 〉 MS/TiO2 〉 P25, with a calcination temperature of 773 K in air. Catalysts that were prepared by MA and calcined in oxygen performed strong interaction between Ti and Mn, while MnTiO3 was observed. Compared to the catalysts calcined in nitrogen, those calcined in oxygen had larger diameter and smaller surface area and pore. Catalysts that were prepared by MA and calcined in nitrogen tended to gain higher denitration rates than those in air, since they could be prepared with significant specific surface areas. NO., conversion decreased with calcination atmospheres: Nitrogen〉 Air〉 Oxygen. Meanwhile, amorphous Mn2O3 turned into crystalline Mn2O3, when the temperatures increased from 673 to 873 K.

文摘This work examines the influence of preparation methods on the physicochemical properties and catalytic performance of MnOx‐CeO2 catalysts for selective catalytic reduction of NO by NH3 (NH3‐SCR) at low temperature. Five different methods, namely, mechanical mixing, impregnation,hydrothermal treatment, co‐precipitation, and a sol‐gel technique, were used to synthesizeMnOx‐CeO2 catalysts. The catalysts were characterized in detail, and an NH3‐SCR model reaction waschosen to evaluate the catalytic performance. The results showed that the preparation methodsaffected the catalytic performance in the order: hydrothermal treatment > sol‐gel > co‐precipitation> impregnation > mechanical mixing. This order correlated with the surface Ce3+ and Mn4+ content,oxygen vacancies and surface adsorbed oxygen species concentration, and the amount of acidic sitesand acidic strength. This trend is related to redox interactions between MnOx and CeO2. The catalystformed by a hydrothermal treatment exhibited excellent physicochemical properties, optimal catalyticperformance, and good H2O resistance in NH3‐SCR reaction. This was attributed to incorporationof Mnn+ into the CeO2 lattice to form a uniform ceria‐based solid solution (containing Mn‐O‐Cestructures). Strengthening of the electronic interactions between MnOx and CeO2, driven by thehigh‐temperature and high‐pressure conditions during the hydrothermal treatment also improved the catalyst characteristics. Thus, the hydrothermal treatment method is an efficient and environment‐friendly route to synthesizing low‐temperature denitrification (deNOx) catalysts.

文摘Alkali metal K in exhaust gas has a deactivation effect on NH_(3)-SCR catalysts.In this work,it is discovered that the addition of Ho on CeTi catalyst can remarkably strengthen its K tolerance.The conclusions of Brunauer-Emmett-Teller(BET),X-ray diffraction(XRD),X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),NH_(3) temperature programmed desorption(NH_(3)-TPD)and H_(2)temperature programmed reduction(H_(2)-TPR)analyses demonstrate that the enhancement of K resistance mainly originates from its stronger surface acidity and redox capability,the higher concentration of Ce^(3+)species and surface chemisorbed oxygen.In situ DRIFT analysis reveals that the introduction of Ho on CeTi can remarkably improve the adsorption of NH_(3) and NO_(x) species on catalyst surface,accompanied by the intensified reactivity of ad-NH_(3) species,which should also administer to improve the K resistance.

文摘A series of TiO_(2)-Al_(2)O_(3) composites with Al/Ti molar ratios of 0.1,0.2,and 0.4 were synthesized by a coprecipitation method and used as supports to prepare supported MnCeO_(x) catalysts by an impregnation method.The physico-chemical properties of the samples were extensively characterized by N_(2) physisorption,X-ray diffraction,Raman spectroscopy,scanning electron micro scopy and energy-dispersive Xray spectroscopy element mapping,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,H_(2)-temperature programmed reduction,ammonia temperature programmed desorption,and in-situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy.The catalytic activity and resistance to water vapor and SO_(2) of the asprepared catalysts for the SCR of NO_(x) with NH_(3) were evaluated at 50-250℃ and GHSV of 80000 mL/(gcat·h).The results reveal that MnCeO_(x)/TiO_(2)-Al_(2)O_(3) exhibits higher activity and better SO_(2) tolerance than MnCeO_(x)/TiO_(2).Combining with the characterization results,the enhanced activity and SO_(2) tolerance of MnCeO_(x)/TiO_(2)-Al_(2)O_(3) can be mainly attributed to higher relative concentrations of Mn4+and chemisorbed oxygen species,stronger reducibility,and larger adsorption capacity for NH_(3) and NO,which originate from the larger specific surface area and pore volume,higher dispersion of Mn and Ce species compared with MnCeO_(x)/TiO_(2).Moreover,in situ DRIFTS was used to investigate the reaction mechanism,and the results indicate that the NH_(3)-SCR reaction over MnCeO_(x)/TiO_(2) and MnCeO_(x)/TiO_(2)-Al_(2)O_(3) takes place by both the E-R and L-H mechanisms.

文摘Thermally stable Zr4+, Al3+, and Si4+ cations were incorporated into the lattice of CeO2 nano‐rods (i.e., CeO2‐NR) in order to improve the specific surface area. The undoped and Zr4+, Al3+, and Si4+ doped nano‐rods were used as supports to prepare MnOx/CeO2‐NR, MnOx/CZ‐NR, MnOx/CA‐NR, and MnOx/CS‐NR catalysts, respectively. The prepared supports and catalysts were comprehensively characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high‐resolution TEM, X‐ray diffraction, Raman and N2‐physisorption analyses, hydrogen temperature‐programmed reduction, ammonia temperature‐programmed desorption, in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier‐transform spectroscopic analysis of the NH3 adsorption, and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Moreover, the catalytic performance and H2O+SO2 tolerance of these samples were evaluated through NH3‐selective catalytic reduction (NH3‐SCR) in the absence or presence of H2O and SO2. The obtained results show that the MnOx/CS‐NR catalyst exhibits the highest NOx conversion and the lowest N2O concentration, which result from the largest number of oxygen vacancies and acid sites, the highest Mn4+ content, and the lowest redox ability. The MnOx/CS‐NR catalyst also presents excellent resistance to H2O and SO2. All of these phenomena suggest that Si4+ is the optimal dopant for the MnOx/CeO2‐NR catalyst.

文摘The MnXO_(x) catalysts(i.e.,MnSmO_(x),MnNdO_(x),MnCeO_(x)) were prepared by reverse co-precipitation method and used for NH_(3)-SCR reaction.It is found that MnCeO_(x) catalyst presents the best low tempe rature catalytic activity(higher than 90% NO_(x) conversion in the te mperature range from 125 to 225℃)and excellent H_(2)O+SO_(2) resistance.In order to explore the reason for this result,the characterization of X-ray diffraction(XRD),Raman spectroscopy,Brunauer-Emmett-Teller(BET),H_(2)-temperature programmed reduction(H_(2)-TPR),NH_(3)-temperature programmed desorption(NH_(3)-TPD),X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) and in situ diffuse reflaxions infrared Fourier transformations spectroscopy(DRIFTS) were conducted.The obtained results suggest that MnCeO_(x) catalyst shows the largest amount of acid sites and the best reducibility among these MnXO_(x) catalysts.Besides,Ce^(4+) doping inhibits the crystallization of MnO_(x) catalyst and shows the largest specific surface area.Finally,in situ DRIFTS experiments reveal that NH_(3)-SCR reaction over MnCeO_(x) catalyst follows both Langmuir-Hinshelwood(LH) and Eley-Rideal(E-R) mechanisms,which is through "fast SCR" reaction.

文摘MnO_(x)-CeO_(2) catalysts are developed by hydrolysis driving redox method using acetate precursor(3 Mn1 Ce-Ac) and nitrate precursor(3 Mn1 Ce-N) for the selective catalytic reduction(SCR) of NO_(x) by NH_(3).A counterpart sample(Cop-3 Mn1 Ce) was prepared by the NH_(3)·H_(2) O co-precipitation method for comparison purpose.Combining the results of physicochemical properties characterization and performance test,we find that the 3 Mn1 Ce-Ac catalyst with some nanorod structures is highly active for the deNOx process.The SCR activity of the 3 Mn1 Ce-Ac catalyst is more admirable than the 3 Mn1 Ce-N and the Cop-3 Mn1 Ce catalysts due to plentiful Lewis acid sites,excellent low-temperature reducibility,and superior surface area resulted from O_(2) generation during the pre paration procedure.The 3 Mn1 Ce-Ac still exhibits the greatest performance for the deNO_(x )process when gaseous acetone is in the SCR feed gas.The NOx conversion and N2 selectivity over the 3 Mn1 Ce-Ac are both improved by gaseous acetone above150℃ due to the inhibition of SCR undesired side reactions(NSCR & C-O reactions) and "slow-SCR" process.

文摘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 Mn^(2+)concentration,20 million chlorellas/mL concentration,450℃ calcination temperature)exhibited a well-developed pore structure and large specific surface area(122 m^(2)/g).Compared with MnOx alone,the Chlorella@Mn composite catalyst achieved superior performance,with~100%NH_(3)selective catalytic reduction(NH_(3)-SCR)denitrification activity at 100-225℃.The results of NH_(3)temperature-programmed desorption(NH_(3)-TPD)and H_(2)temperature-programmed reduction(H_(2)-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 Mn^(2+).X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)confirmed that Chlorella@Mn had a high content of Mn^(3+)and surface chemisorbed oxygen.In-situ diffuse refectance 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 SO_(2)promoted the generation and strengthening of Bronsted 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.

文摘A simple strategy of Cu modification was proposed to broaden the operation temperature window for NbCe catalyst.The best catalyst Cu0.010/Nb1Ce3 presented over 90%NO conversion in a wide temperature range of 200-400℃and exhibited an excellent H_(2)O or/and SO_(2) resistance at 275℃.To understand the promotional mechanism of Cu modification,the correlation among the"activity-structure-property"were tried to establish systematically.Cu species highly dispersed on NbCe catalyst to serve as the active component.The strong interaction among Cu,Nb and Ce promoted the emergence of NbO4 and induced more Bronsted acid sites.And Cu modification obviously enhanced the redox behavior of the NbCe catalyst.Besides,EPR probed the Cu species exited in the form of monomeric and dimeric Cu^(2+),the isolated Cu^(2+)acted as catalytic active sites to promote the reaction:Cu^(2+)-NO_(3)^(-)+NO(g)→Cu^(2+)-NO_(2)^(-)+NO_(2)(g).Then the generated NO_(2) would accelerate the fast-SCR reaction process and thus facilitated the lowtemperature deNO_(x) efficiency.Moreover,surface nitrates became unstable and easy to decompose after Cu modification,thus providing additional adsorption and activation sites for NH3,and ensuring the improvement of catalytic activity at high temperature.Since the NH3-SCR reaction followed by E-R reaction pathway efficaciously over Cu_(0.010)/Nb_(1)Ce_(3) catalyst,the excellent H_(2)O and SO_(2) resistance was as expected.

文摘To reveal how cerium stabilizes Cu/SAPO-34 at low-temperature hydrothermal aging,various amounts of cerium were introduced into Cu/SAPO-34 via impregnation method and treated at 70℃with RH 80%for 96 h.Cerium as Ce^(3+)and CeO_(2)nanoparticle is located on the surface of Cu/SAPO-34,and Ce^(3+)plays a vital role on gradually decreasing surface acidity and blocking defect sites with an increase of Ce loading.After hydrothermal aging,Cu/SAPO-34 with high Ce loading shows the superior SCR activity comparable to fresh samples.It is proven that the surface acidity determines the stability of the structure during hydrothermal aging process,and lower surface acidity prevents the number of Cu(Ⅱ)ions from decreasing significantly.Furthermore,the structure's stability helps the recovery of Cu(Ⅱ)ions and renders an outstanding regene ration ability.Our finding paves the way for the design of new Cu/SAPO-34catalysts with good SCR activity and long-term stability in real application.

文摘Hydrothermal stability is crucial for the practical application of deNO_(x)catalyst on diesel vehicles,for the selective catalytic reduction of NO_(x)with NH_(3)(NH_(3)-SCR).SnO_(2)-based materials possess superior hydrothermal stability,which is attractive for the development of NH_(3)-SCR catalyst.In this work,a series of Ce-Nb/SnO_(2)catalysts,with Ce and Nb loading on SnO_(2)support,were prepared by impregnation method.It was found that,the NH_(3)-SCR activities and hydrothermal stabilities of the Ce-Nb/SnO_(2)catalysts significantly varied with the impregnation sequences,and the Ce-Nb(f)/SnO_(2) catalyst that firstly impregnated Nb and then impregnated Ce exhibited the best performance.The characterization results revealed that CeNb(f)/SnO_(2)possessed appropriate acidity and redox capability.Furthermore,the strong synergistic effect between Nb and Sn species stabilized the structure and maintained the dispersion of acid sites.This study may provide a new understanding for the effect of impregnation sequence on activity and hydrothermal stability and a new environmental-friendly NH_(3)-SCR catalyst with potential applications for NO_(x)removal from diesel and hydrogenfueled engines.

文摘The selective catalytic reduction(SCR) of NO_(x) with NH_(3)(NH_(3)-SCR) technology has been widely applied for reducing NO_(x) emissions from stationary and mobile sources.In this work,the extruded monolith MnO_(x)-CeO_(2)-TiO_(2) catalyst was installed in a cement kiln for NH_(3)-SCR of NO_(x),where the flue gas temperature was 110-140℃.It is found that the monolith catalyst is severely deactivated after operating for about 200 h with almost no NO_(x) conversion at 160℃ under GHSV of 50000 h^(-1),while the fresh monolith catalyst remains 60% NO_(x) conversion.Scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectroscopy(SEM-EDS),X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),temperature-programmed desorption of SO_(2)(SO_(2)-TPD) and thermogravimetric-differential thermal analysis(TG-DTG) experiments reveal that both MnO_(x) and CeO_(2) oxides in monolith are severely sulfated to manganese sulfate and cerium sulfate,and the external monolith walls are covered by massive ceria sulfate and little ammonium nitrate.In situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier trans form spectroscopy(DRIFTS) analysis demonstrates that the formation of nitrates at low temperatures is inhibited due to the occupation of active sites in MnO_(x)-CeO_(2)-TiO_(2) by sulfates,resulting in the decrease of low temperature activity.After washing with water,the activity of deactivated monolith catalyst can be partially recovered,together with significant loss of manganese and cerium from monolith.

文摘Zirconium-based metal-organic framework UiO-66 was successfully prepared by solvothermal method,and UiO-66 was modified by adding regulators such as formic acid,acetic acid,and hydrochloric acid.The NH_(3)-SCR reactivity of the samples was evaluated by the denitration activity evaluation system,and the UiO-66 and the regulator-modified UiO-66 were characterized by XRD,SEM,BET,FTIR,TG,NH_(3)-TPD,etc.,the effects of regulator types on the structure and properties of UiO-66 were investigated.The experimental results show that,after adding the modifier,the morphology of UiO-66 changes from irregular quadrilateral with serious agglomeration to particles with regular crystal shape and good dispersibility,and the crystal morphology of the catalyst is improved.In addition,after adding the modifier,UiO-66 has a larger specific surface area and stronger surface acidity,which optimizes the catalytic performance of UiO-66.The catalytic performance test results of NH_(3)-SCR show that the low-temperature activity of UiO-66 is poor,and it only shows a certain catalytic activity at higher temperatures.The catalytic activity of UiO-66 was significantly improved after adding the regulator.Among them,the UiO-66-HCl modified with hydrochloric acid had the best catalytic activity,and the denitration rate reached 70%when the denitration temperature was 380℃.
