Abstract:
The CeO
2, WO
3 and CeO
2-WO
3 (donated as CW) catalysts were prepared by
in-situ self-assembly method and used for the low-temperature selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO
x with NH
3. The results showed that CW catalysts possessed the most microspore and maximum pore volume and larger specific surface area with the addition of WO
3, resulting in the improvement to the catalytic performance. Besides, the interaction of Ce and W was improved by the introduction of WO
3, which could increase the amount of Ce
3+ and O
α. Meanwhile, the enhancement of weak and medium strong acid sites was caused by the introduction of WO
3. Thus, CW catalyst showed the best SCR activity and its NO
x conversion at the value of 100% maintained in a wide temperature window ranging from 250 to 400 ℃.
