Ce-modified commercial vanadium-based catalysts are still in a rapid development stage in terms of optimizing Hg oxidation performance. Due to the universal property of ceria, it can act as either support or promoter to supported vanadium-based catalysts. However, the introduction mode of Ce on the Hg oxidation is still unclarified. Herein, introducing Ce to vanadium-based catalysts as a promoter (VCe/Ti) plays a more effective role in the Hg oxidation than only doping Ce into TiO support (V/CeTi). It is revealed that the strong interaction between V and Ce increases the orbital hybridization, and reduces the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) of V, which is conducive to adsorbing and activating HCl. The excellent performance of the VCe/Ti catalyst can be ascribed to its superior redox ability, stronger HCl adsorption capacity, abundant surface oxygen vacancies, and the redox equilibrium (Ce + V ↔ Ce + V), which improves electron transfer, and thus the catalytic activity. This work provides the potential application of Ce-modified V-based catalysts for the simultaneous control of NO and Hg in stationary sources.
Ce 改性商业钒基催化剂在优化 Hg 氧化性能方面仍处于快速发展阶段。由于氧化铈的普遍性质,它既可以作为载体,也可以作为负载型钒基催化剂的促进剂。然而,Ce 在 Hg 氧化中的引入方式仍不清楚。在此,将 Ce 作为促进剂(VCe/Ti)引入到钒基催化剂中,在 Hg 氧化中比仅将 Ce 掺杂到 TiO 载体(V/CeTi)中发挥更有效的作用。结果表明,V 和 Ce 之间的强相互作用增加了轨道杂化,并降低了 V 的最低未占据分子轨道(LUMO),有利于吸附和激活 HCl。VCe/Ti 催化剂的优异性能可归因于其卓越的氧化还原能力、更强的 HCl 吸附能力、丰富的表面氧空位以及氧化还原平衡(Ce + V ↔ Ce + V),这促进了电子转移,从而提高了催化活性。这项工作为 Ce 改性 V 基催化剂在固定源中同时控制 NO 和 Hg 提供了潜在的应用。
