摘要

To address the issue regarding the effective removal of NOx under conditions with fluctuating temperatures, developing a catalyst that exhibits satisfactory selective catalytic reduction (SCR) performance in a wide temperature range is the research hotspot in environmental field. In this study, the virgin and NdOx-doped MnCo2O4 spinel catalysts were prepared using the sol-gel method, aiming to investigate the effect of NdOx on SCR performance. The optimal sample, with an Nd/Mn molar ratio of 0.1, showed > 90% NOx conversion within a temperature range of 200–350 °C and maintained > 96% N2 selectivity over the whole temperature range. The enhanced SCR performance of the NdOx-doped catalysts could be attributed to several factors, including enlarged specific surface area, more developed pore structures, greater acidity and oxidizability, and improved NO oxidation capability. The Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism contributed to the SCR reactions for the pristine and NdOx-doped catalysts; doping NdOx improved the reactivity of the formed intermediates during the catalytic cycle. Finally, the NdOx-modified catalyst exhibited better sulfur resistance; during the 10-h sulfur deactivation cycle, catalyst’s NOx conversion remained above 86%, ~ 13% higher than that of the pristine MnCo2O4. Given its good SCR performance under high gas hourly space velocity conditions, it seems that the NdOx-modified catalyst shows certain industrialization prospects.
