A catalyst and a method for selectively reducing nitrogen oxides ('NO') with ammonia are provided. The catalyst includes a first component comprising a zeolite or mixture of zeolites selected from the group consisting of ZSM-5, ZSM-11, ZSM-12, ZSM-18, ZSM-23, MCM-zeolites, mordenite, faujasite, ferrierite, zeolite beta, and mixtures thereof; a second component comprising at least one member selected from the group consisting of cerium, iron, copper, gallium, manganese, chromium, cobalt, molybdenum, tin, rhenium, tantalum, osmium, barium, boron, calcium, strontium, potassium, vanadium, nickel, tungsten, an actinide, mixtures of actinides, a lanthanide, mixtures of lanthanides, and mixtures thereof; optionally an oxygen storage material and optionally an inorganic oxide. The catalyst selectively reduces nitrogen oxides to nitrogen with ammonia at high temperatures. The catalyst has high hydrothermal stability. The catalyst has high activity for conversion of low levels of nitrogen oxides in exhaust streams. The catalyst and the method may have special application to selective reduction of nitrogen oxides in exhaust gas from gas turbines and gas engines, although the catalyst and the method have broad application to a wide range of gas streams that have excess oxygen and high temperatures. The temperature of exhaust gas from gas turbines and gas engines is high. Both the high temperature and the low levels of inlet NOare challenging for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalysts.

Embodiments of the present disclosure include a catalyst for the conversion of CO and/or hydrocarbons in an exhaust stream including a Sn compound selected from the group consisting of a binary composition comprising Sn and Ti, a ternary composition comprising Sn, Ti and Zr, and mixtures of any thereof. In those embodiments, the binary composition may include SnTiO, wherein x+y=1, 0.85&#x3e;y&#x3e;0. In other embodiments of the present disclosure, the Sn compound includes a ternary composition including SnTiZrO, wherein a is 0.25, b is 0.25 and c is 0.5. Certain embodiments of this disclosure include a method for the conversion of CO in an exhaust stream, including contacting an exhaust stream containing CO with the catalyst described above containing a Sn compound. In other embodiments, the exhaust stream includes hydrocarbons.

Catalysts for lean burn engines

A catalyzed diesel particulate filter (CDPF) and a method for filtering particulates from diesel engine exhaust are provided, where the catalyzed diesel particulate filter includes a substrate and a catalyst composition, where the catalyst composition contains at least one first component, at least one second component, and at least one third component, where the first component is at least one first component selected from the group consisting of cerium and a lanthanide and mixtures thereof, the at least one second component is selected from the group consisting of cobalt, copper, manganese and mixtures thereof; and the third component comprises strontium, where the first component, the second component, and the third component are in an oxide form after calcination. The catalyst on the catalyzed diesel particulate filter lowers the temperature at which particulates are removed from the CDPF by oxidizing the particulates on the filter. The catalyzed diesel particulate filter may also include a washcoat. Washcoats prepared from colloidal aluminum oxide may have higher surface areas and pore volumes loadings than washcoats containing aluminum oxide prepared from aluminum nitrate.

Platinum group metal-free catalysts for reducing the ignition temperature of particulates on a diesel particulate filter

A zeolite based SCR catalyst for NOx reduction using a reducing agent for treating exhaust streams from industrial and commercial boilers is provided. The reactor system has a zeolite based catalyst arranged in catalyst cassettes in a modular fashion where the reactor containing the zeolite based SCR catalyst cassettes is placed in a perpendicular direction to the exhaust exiting the industrial and/or commercial boiler. The catalyst selectively reduces nitrogen oxides to nitrogen with a reducing agent at low to medium temperatures. The reactor results in high NOx conversions and very low ammonia slip and is active for a wide range of boiler firing conditions. Boilers with low NOx and/or ultra low NOx burners can be replaced with a standard conventional burner for overall emissions reduction performance, efficiency improvements and energy savings. Boilers with low NOx and ultra low NOx burners can also be fitted with this zeolite based SCR catalyst reactor for additional NOx reductions and energy savings.
