Investigating the promotional effect of methanol on the low temperature SCR reaction on Ag/Al2O3

- Methanol has been shown to have a remarkable effect on the HC-SCR reaction over Ag/Al2O3.
- The conversion of NOx and hydrocarbons is significantly improved in the presence of methanol.
- The fast transient kinetic and DRIFTS analysis potentially identifies the effect of methanol to be similar to that of H2.
- Hydrogen and ammonia are detected during the HC-SCR reaction in the presence of methanol.
