Abstract

Several zeolite-based catalysts containing Ce3+ and/or CeO2 were prepared by a variety of catalyst preparation techniques like ion exchange, solid-state ion exchange, impregnation and physical mixing and are characterised. Selective catalytic reduction was evaluated using simulated exhaust gas containing NO x , NH3, O2 and H2O at high space velocities (>180 000 h−1) in the temperature window 150–600 °C. The activity and selectivity in NO x reduction was found to strongly depend on the charge compensating ions, crystallite size of the zeolite and CeO2 content in the catalyst. CeO2 mixed with zeolite having H+ or Ce3+ cocations showed benificial effect and increased the NO x conversion and selectivity. Among the different zeolite materials studied, the structure and the strength and amount of Brønsted acidity did not influence the NO x conversion.
