Abstract

The porous biomass carbons (PBCs) as catalyst supports were synthesized by simple hydrothermal and carbonization method, and the surface property of PBCs were designed by plasma treatment technology. The Pd and Ce loaded TPBCs (PBCs were treated with plasma) supports were evaluated for their catalytic activity in the CO oxidation reaction. The Pd–Ce/TPBCs-20 catalyst (Conditions: CO concentration: 1 vol%, Total flow rate: 50 mL min−1, Moisture: 4 vol%) exhibited the highest catalytic activity, and the complete conversion temperature (T100) was about 20 °C for CO catalytic oxidation. Moreover, the Pd–Ce/TPBCs-20 catalyst behaved an excellent stability with the CO conversion rate in the presence of moisture, remaining higher than 90% after 24 h on stream at 20 °C. Raman, XPS, H2-TPR and O2-TPD analysis revealed that the surface oxygen-containing functional groups and defect concentration will increase with increasing plasma treatment time, which could improved Pd and Ce diffusion and Pd–O–Ce bonding interactions, resulting in increased CO catalytic activity. In addition, chitosan as the raw material for the synthesis of PBCs support, is low-cost and easy to be obtained from nature. Therefore, the Pd–Ce/TPBCs catalysts have great potential for catalytic removal of CO in practical application.
