Co-doped LaAlO3 perovskite oxide for NOx-assisted soot oxidation

CO and Soot Oxidation over Ce-Zr-Pr Oxide Catalysts

A set of ceria, ceria-zirconia (Ce 80 at.%, Zr 20 at.%), ceria-praseodymia (Ce 80 at.%, Pr 20 at.%) and ceria-zirconia-praseodymia (Ce 80 at.%, Zr 10 at.% and Pr 10 at.%) catalysts has been prepared by the solution combustion synthesis (SCS). The effects of Zr and Pr as dopants on ceria have been studied in CO and soot oxidation reactions. All the prepared catalysts have been characterized by c...

A GdAlO3 Perovskite Oxide Electrolyte-Based NOx Solid-State Sensor

NOx is a notorious emission from motor vehicles and chemical factories as the precursor of acid rain and photochemical smog. Although zirconia-based NOx sensors have been developed and showed high sensitivity and selectivity at a high temperature of above 800 °C, they fail to show good performance, and even don't work at the typical work temperature window of the automotive engine (<500 °C). It...

Manganese Oxide Promoted LaCoO3 Nano-Perovskite for Oxidation of a Model Exhaust Gas

Preparation methods and thermal stability of Ba-Mn-Ce oxide catalyst for NO(x)-assisted soot oxidation.

Manganese oxide-loaded and -doped ceria as well as the corresponding barium-modified oxide catalysts were prepared for soot oxidation in the presence of NO(x), and were characterized by using X-ray diffraction, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller and NO temperature-programmed oxidation measurements. The activity of catalyst depended strongly on the NO2 production capacity, and the importance of surface nitr...

Synthesis of La1-xSrxAlO3 Perovskites by Reverse Strike Co-Precipitation Method and Its Soot Oxidation Activity

La1-xSrxAlO3 (x=0 to 0.4) perovskite materials were synthesized by the reverse strike co-precipitation method and their soot oxidation activity was evaluated. All the catalysts synthesized were characterized using XRD, BET specific surface area, FESEM and XPS techniques. As analyzed by XRD, La1-xSrxAlO3 <...
