Popis: Air contamination caused by the ammonia slip phenomenon has gradually captured the researcher's extensive attention. An effective strategy for controlling fugitive NH3 is critical to improving the air quality and living environment. In the present work, CuOx/La2Ce2O7 composite as a potential candidate catalyst is synthesized through the electrostatic adsorption method for the selective catalytic oxidation (SCO) of NH3 to N2. The 5% CuOx/La2Ce2O7 exhibits the best catalytic activity (T90 =243 ℃) and ammonia conversion efficiency. The improvement of performance is mainly attributed to the superficial connection of [Ce-O-Cu], which enhances the capturing ability of ammonia molecule and accelerates the dissociating efficiency of N-H bonding for N2 evolution, simultaneously. This work provides a facile method to synthesis pyrochlore composite catalyst of NH3-SCO for solving the problem of ammonia slip pollution in the future.
