Ir/TiO2 coated on cordierite monolith was investigated in the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with propene using a broad temperature range and simulated diesel exhaust gas conditions under the standard mixture (1000 vpm NO, 2000 vpm C3H6, 500 vpm CO, 10 vol.% O2). The physicochemical characterization of the commercial catalyst showed that the BET surface area of the fresh and aged sam...

The study area is a part of so-called Sanandaj-Sirjan zone or Zagros imbricate zone of the Zagros Orogen, Iran. The Hamedan region comprises a metamorphic sequence of low- to high-grade regional and contact metamorphic rocks intruded by mafic, intermediate and felsic plutonic bodies. The sequence comprises pelitic, psammitic, mafic, calc-pelitic and calc-silicate rocks.  Pelitic rocks are the m...
