The tuning of their composition, structure and morphology at macro and nanoscale can alter significantly their catalytic behavior and robustness with a strong impact on their overall performances. Among the several combinations of supports and promoters that have been utilized, Pd/CeO2 has attracted a great attention due to its activity and durability coupled with the unusually high degree of interaction between Pd/Pd O and the support. This allows the creation of specific structural arrangements which profoundly impact on methane activation characteristics. Here we want to review the latest findings in this area, and particularly to envisage how the control(when possible) of Pd-CeO2 interaction at nanoscale can help in designing more robust methane oxidation catalysts.展开更多

A full understanding of the N2O formation mechanism is essential to suppress the N2O emission during the low-temperature NH3-SCR, and requires an intensive study of this heterogeneous catalysis process. In this study, we investigated the reaction between NH3 and NO over a Pd/CeO2 catalyst in the absence of O2, using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, NH3-temperature-programmed desorption, NO-temperature-programmed desorption, and in-situ Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. Our results indicate that the N2O formation mechanism is reaction-temperature-dependent. At temperatures below 250 ℃, the dissociation of HON, which is produced from the reaction between surface H· adatoms and adsorbed NO, is the key process for N2O formation. At temperatures above 250 ℃,the reaction between NO and surface N·, which is produced by NO dissociation, is the only route for N2O formation, and the dissociation of NO is the rate-determining step. Under optimal reaction conditions, a high performance with nearly 100% NO conversion and 100% N2 selectivity could be achieved. These results provide important information to clarify the mechanism of N2O formation and possible suppression of N2 O emission during low-temperature NH3-SCR.展开更多

Physical structure and chemical properties of different catalysts were characterized by N2 adsorption, X-ray diffraction（XRD）, CO chemisorption, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy（XPS）, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy（FT-IR） and X-ray fluorescence（XRF）. After 10 h SO2 sulfation, it was found that the decrement on CO oxidation catalytic activity was limited on Pd/Ce0.75Zr0.25O2 compared to Pd/Ce O2-Ti O2 and Pd/Ce O2. It demonstrated that Pd/Ce0.75Zr0.25O2 was more sulfur resistant compared to the other two catalysts. After sulfur exposure, catalyst texture was not much influenced as shown by N2 adsorption and XRD, and surface Pd atoms were poisoned indicated by CO chemisorption results. Pd/Ce0.75Zr0.25O2 and Pd/Ce O2-Ti O2 exhibited less sulfur accumulation compared to Pd/Ce O2 in the sulfation process. Furthermore, XPS results clarified that surface sulfur amount, especially surface sulfates amount on the sulfated catalysts was more crucial for the deactivation in sulfur containing environment.展开更多
