Revealing the effect of electrochemical promotion on FeNC catalysts for electro-assisted NH3-SCR

Abstract

We devised an electro-assisted method utilizing FexNyC catalysts for low-temperature NH3-SCR. Compared to traditional heating methods, electric heating significantly reduced the T90 of NOx conversion for the Fe3N1.5C catalyst from 160 °C to 120 °C. Under electro-assisted conditions, the applied current facilitates the migration of bulk phase lattice oxygen to the catalyst surface, promoting the oxidation of NH3 species adsorbed on the catalyst surface and thereby promoting the NH3-SCR reaction.
