N2O Activation and NO Adsorption Control the Simultaneous Conversion of N2O and NO Using NH3 over Fe-ZSM-5

Fe-exchanged zeolites are heterogeneous catalysts that can potentially ensure simultaneous conversion of nitrous oxide (N2O) and nitric oxide (NO) using ammonia (NH3) as a selective reducing agent through their selective catalytic reduction reaction (N2O-N ...

The simultaneous Selective Catalytic Reduction of N2O and NO over Fe-exchanged zeolites

Filippo Buttignol

Iron-exchanged zeolites are industrial heterogeneous catalysts deployed to remediate anthropogenic emissions of both nitrous oxide (N2O) and nitrogen oxides (NOx = NO + NO2). Despite the extensive scientific attention received, limited knowledge is availab ...

Iron-catalysed cooperative redox mechanism for the simultaneous conversion of nitrous oxide and nitric oxide

Oliver Kröcher, Filippo Buttignol

Iron-exchanged zeolites are often deployed industrially to remediate nitric oxide (NO) and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions. The nature of the active site and the reaction mechanism involved in the simultaneous removal of NO and N2O remain largely unknown, pr ...

Improving time-resolution and sensitivity of in situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy of a powder catalyst by modulated excitation

Oliver Kröcher, Davide Ferri, Filippo Buttignol

Ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (APXPS) is a powerful tool to characterize the surface structure of heterogeneous catalysts in situ. In order to improve the time resolution and the signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio of photoemission spectra, we ...

Aging of industrial Fe-zeolite based catalysts for nitrous oxide abatement in nitric acid production plants

Oliver Kröcher, Davide Ferri, Pierdomenico Biasi, Filippo Buttignol

The influence of hydrothermal aging on the structural and catalytic properties of two commercial Fe-exchanged zeolite catalysts (Fe-FER and Fe-ZSM-5) in the extruded form employed for the removal of N2O from the exhaust of nitric acid production plants has ...

Effect of an Al2O3-based binder on the structure of extruded Fe-ZSM-5

Oliver Kröcher, Davide Ferri, Pierdomenico Biasi, Filippo Buttignol

The effect of an alumina-based binder on the structure of a commercial Fe-ZSM-5 catalyst has been investigated. Several ex-situ characterization techniques were used to show that the binder in the catalyst formulation allows obtaining a material that posse ...
