Abstract
Cu-mordenites catalysts are among the most active available for de-NOx at moderate temperatures. Silica-alumina molar ratio of mordenite supports strongly affects conversion efficiency for NOx. Copper mordenites' rapid deactivation by water has led us to investigate the effects of adsorbed water on framework and extra-framework ions, mainly using NMR of 27Al and 1H. Adsorbed water content has been monitored and controlled in mordenite samples via TGA, as well as by vacuum calcination. Several NMR measurements have been performed to aid in the interpretation of spectra, including variable pulse-delay spin echo and 1H- 27Al TRAPDOR. A number of surface characterization techniques have been applied to both H- and Cu-mordenites. Catalytic experiments showed that the reduction of NOx to N 2 and O 2 by hydrocarbons reach 95-98 % depending on the catalyst composition.
