摘要:
A diesel exhaust treatment system and method of oxidizing NO to NO2 at low temperatures are provided. The system utilizes a platinum catalyst on a zirconia-stabilized silica support which oxidizes NO in the exhaust gas to NO2 and uses the NO2 in an amount sufficient to oxidize particulate trapped on a particulate filter. The catalyst is preferably pre-treated at a temperature of between about 500 to 650° C. in a NO-oxygen-nitrogen mixture to increase conversion at low temperatures. The catalyst preferably includes an additional oxide component selected from the group consisting of TiO2, P2O5, WO3, B2O3, and Al2O3. or a heteropolyacid component to further increase activity at low temperatures or to decrease platinum loading at the same level of performance.
摘要:
The invention is a method for producing a metal oxide product by steps including absorbing a liquid solution of metal oxide precursors onto crystalline or microcrystalline, porous structured organic material capable of being combusted at elevated temperatures; heating the organic material containing the absorbed solution for a time and at a temperature sufficient to vaporize the liquid, convert the metal oxide precursors to metal oxides, and combust the organic material. The metal oxide products have been found to retain a high specific surface area (porous structure) even when subjected to elevated temperatures, which makes them ideally suited for use as catalyst materials.
摘要:
An exhaust gas catalyst and method of manufacturing same. The invention provides for a cost-effective material which lowers the cold-start emissions from the exhaust of vehicles. The invention is a passive system which accelerates the light-off temperature of catalyst in a cost-effective fashion. The invention includes a method of manufacturing an exhaust gas catalyst capable of lowering cold-start emissions including the steps of providing an oxide mixture having praseodymium and cerium, doping about 0-10% weight zirconium and about 0-10% weight yttrium to the oxide mixture, adding about 0-2% weight metal including palladium, platinum, or rhodium to the oxide mixture, mixing gamma aluminum to the oxide mixture for washcoating and washcoating the oxide mixture onto a monolithic substrate.
