Abstract:

A sample of sulfated anatase TiO2 with high-energy (001) facets (TiO2-001) was prepared by a simple one-step hydrothermal route using SO42- as a morphology-controlling agent. After doping ceria, Ce/TiO2-001 was used as the catalyst for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with NH3. Compared with Ce/P25 (Degussa P25 TiO2) and Ce/P25-S (sulfated P25) catalysts, Ce/TiO2-001 was more suitable for medium-and high-temperature SCR of NO due to the high surface area, sulfation, and the excellent properties of the active-energy (001) facets. All of these facilitated the generation of abundant acidity, chemisorbed oxygen, and activated NOx-adsorption species, which were the important factors for the SCR reaction.
