Application of combinatorial catalysis to the selective reduction of NO by C3H6
Selective catalytic reduction of NO by C3H6 was investigated using the tools of combinatorial chemistry under both stoichiometric and fuel-lean conditions. Fifty six quaternary Pt-Pd-In-Na combination catalysts were prepared by impregnating gamma -Al2O3 pellets with precursor solution mixtures prepared automatically using a micro-jet liquid dispensation system. Performances of the catalysts were evaluated in array microreactors using mass spectrometry in the temperature range 200-550 degreesC. A number of multi-metallic combinations showed excellent NO reduction activities under stoichiometric conditions and over a broad temperature range. However, the performance of the entire library under fuel-lean conditions was poor.
