The susceptibility of Cu zeolites towards hydrothermal aging was investigated using Cu-Beta zeolite aged at 500-900 ⁰C. The SCR activity was readily altered by low temperature aging; however, the oxidation reactions were more significantly affected.
The high temperature stable copper chabazite (Cu-CHA) catalysts, such as Cu‑SAPO‑34 and Cu‑SSZ‑13, demonstrated higher activity than Cu‑Beta at low temperature; however, the presence of NO2 in SCR reaction resulted in more stable ammonium nitrate species hindering the activity of Cu-CHA catalysts at low temperature.
Deactivation caused by sulfur is one of the downside features of Cu zeolites which in this thesis, was examined for Cu‑SAPO‑34 and Cu‑SSZ‑13. The deactivation effect was more severe on standard SCR than on SCR in the presence of NO2. After SO2 poisoning, the activity was possible to recover by performing SCR reaction at high temperature. Further, depending on the gas compositions, copper sulfate and ammonium sulfate species were found during SO2 poisoning causing the decrease in catalytic activity.
The performance of monolithic catalyst system such as those used in diesel aftertreatment has been known to be affected both by kinetic reactions and mass transfer limitations. By varying the washcoat thickness and porosity, the presence of mass transfer in the washcoat was examined.
Finally, a deeper understanding of the mechanisms for catalytic reactions will facilitate the development of better catalysts in the future and strengthen the importance of catalysis for sustainable development.
