Mn-Ce Catalysts/LDPC Modified by Mo for Improving NH3-SCR Performance and SO2 Resistance at Low Temperature

Mn-Ce catalysts modified by Mo were loaded on low-density porous ceramics (LDPC) for simultaneous denitrification and dust removal. The Mn-Ce-Mo catalyst on LDPC had nearly 99% NOx conversion efficiency from 120 degrees C to 200 degrees C and still maintained more than 90% NOx conversion efficiency when the filtration velocity reached to 4 m/min. Mn-Ce-Mo catalysts/LDPC not only exhibited excellent catalytic performance at low temperature, they also exhibited good resistance to H2O and SO2. The NOx conversion efficiency remained above 89% at 160 degrees C when the flue gas contained 100 ppm SO2 and 7 vol.% H2O. The analysis of NH3-TPD and XPS confirmed that Mn2Ce1Ox catalysts modified with Mo had the stronger surface acidity and more adsorbed oxygen, leading to higher NH3-SCR activity and better resistance to SO2 and H2O.
