Abstract

In this investigation, a comparative study for a NO X storage catalytic system was performed focusing on the parameters that affect the reduction by using different reductants (H2, CO, C3H6 and C3H8) and different temperatures (350, 250 and 150 °C), for a Pt/BaO/Al2O3 catalyst. Transient experiments show that H2 and CO are highly efficient reductants compared to C3H6 which is somewhat less efficient. H2 shows a significant reduction effect at relatively low temperature (150 °C) but with a low storage capacity. We find that C3H8 does not show any NO X reduction ability for NO X stored in Pt/BaO/Al2O3 at any of the temperatures. The formation of ammonia and nitrous oxide is also discussed.
