Flame-made composite metal oxides for selective catalytic reduction
This project studies the potential of composite catalysts, prepared by flame spray pyrolysis, for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of nitrogen oxides (NOx). The catalyst formulation under investigation is reported to demonstrate improved insensitivity to the presence of SO2 which can deactivate other materials.
Overview
This project studies the potential of composite catalysts, prepared by flame spray pyrolysis, for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of nitrogen oxides (NOx). The catalyst formulation under investigation is reported to demonstrate improved insensitivity to the presence of SO2 which can deactivate other materials.
Major achievements
FSP has been used to fabricate WO3/V2O5/MnO2/TiO2 composite materials, which have been sent to Gyeongsang National University, Korea for SCR assessment.
Future plans and directions
Optimisation of SCR catalyst composition for NOx removal.
