Abstract

Fe-exchanged ZSM-5 catalysts prepared from Na+ and H+ forms of ZSM-5 were evaluated for the selective catalytic reduction of NOx by NH3 (NH3-SCR). Fe-H-ZSM-5 showed higher SCR activity than Fe-Na-ZSM-5 both when fresh and after hydrothermal aging at 750 °C in 5% H2O/air. The Fe species distribution and acidity of Fe-H-ZSM-5 and Fe-Na-ZSM-5 were found to be different. The dealumination of the zeolite framework of Fe-H-ZSM-5 during hydrothermal aging was found to be more severe compared with that of Fe-Na-ZSM-5. The durability of Fe-H-ZSM-5 and Fe-Na-ZSM-5 in NH3-SCR was compared using SO2 tolerance and hydrocarbon resistance experiments. The effect of water and SO2 on the activity of the two catalysts was similar, such that their activity decreased at low temperatures and increased at high temperatures. Fe-Na-ZSM-5 showed better propene resistance than Fe-H-ZSM-5. The SO2 and propene poisoning of the two Fe-ZSM-5 catalysts were found to be reversible.

Graphical AbstractFe-ZSM-5 prepared from Na-ZSM-5 is more stable against hydrothermal deactivation and shows better SO2 and C3H6 poisoning resistance than Fe-ZSM-5 prepared from H-ZSM-5Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload as PowerPoint slide
