Abstract:
A series of honeycombed holmium-modified Fe-Mn/TiO
2 catalysts were prepared by moulding method and their performance in the low temperature selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO
x was investigated. The forming process was optimized as:the mass content of water in the forming additives is 40%, in which 10% structure strengthening agent (glass fiber), 5% binder (carboxymethyl cellulose), 10% squeezing agent (glycerin), 5% pore-forming agent (activated carbon) and a little lubricants (liquid paraffin) are added. The honeycombed Fe-Ho-Mn/TiO
2 catalyst prepared under these conditions exhibits excellent performance in the low-temperature SCR of NO
x; the conversion of NO
x exceeds 90% at 120℃ and a good resistance to SO
2 and H
2O is observed when the content of SO
2 in the stream is lower than 0.02%. The characterization results indicated that in comparison with the parent powder holmium-modified Fe-Ho-Mn/TiO
2 catalyst, the honeycombed catalyst exhibits lower surface area, more particle aggregation, and less acid sites and Mn
4+ species on the surface, which has a certain negative influence on the catalytic performance of Fe-Ho-Mn/TiO
2.
