which were prepared by solid ion-exchange (SE) and liquid exchange in methanolic solution (LE-MeOH); commercial Fe-ZSM-5 from Clariant and Zeolyst International, and synthetic Mn-ZSM-5 system were investigated All catalysts were, the catalysts were first characterized by ICP-OES, XRD, H2-TPR and pyridine adsorption Then, the nature and stability of adsorbed species on the catalyst surface formed under NO and NO+O2 co-adsorption conditions were performed by in situ FTIR spectroscopy The results show that, the introduction of NO causes the formation of: NO+ occupying cationic zeolite positions [υ(NO) at 2133 cm-1], Co2+(NO)2 dinitrosyls [υs(NO) = 1895 cm-1 and υas(NO) = 1812 cm-1], and Co3+-NO linear species [υ(NO) at 1937 cm-1] was observed In the presence of gaseous O2 the formation of nitrate and nitrite species is facilitated (1300 to 1650 cm-1), the extent of which depends on the metal content as well as the nature of Co-, Fe- and Mn- species formed by the different synthesis methods The adsorption process in NO+O2 co-adsorption was exposed at Room Temperature (RT), 150⁰C, 250⁰C and 350⁰C to see the change of thermal behavior and state of adsorbed surface species

reaction, however, the mechanism is still not clear and depends so much on catalyst system Particularly, the formation of intermediates on the catalyst surface and the interaction with reducing agents (CH4 and NH3) need to further investigate That way, we can distinguish how and why different active sites just work in specific reaction Therefore, the future study needs to be focused on this idea, with more and further investigation (EPR, DRIFT) on various active sites to achieve this point 71 PUBLICATIONS [1] Nguyen Quang Minh, Bui Quang Hung, Dao Quoc Tuy (2017), A study of Ru promoter on

Reduction of the author W Addy Majewski, Copyright 2005 Positive pathways Chemical reactions, expressed by Equations (1) to (5), represent desirable reactions which reduce NOx to elemental nitrogen 6NO + 4NH3 → 5N2 + 6H2O (1) 4NO + 4NH3 + O2 → 4N2 + 6H2O (2) 6NO2 + 8NH3 → 7N2 + 12H2O (3) 2NO2 + 4NH3 + O2 → 3N2 + 6H2O (4) NO + NO2 + 2NH3 → 2N2 + 3H2O (5) Equation (2) represents the dominant reaction mechanism Equation (5) represents the fast SCR reaction This reaction is responsible for the promotion of low temperature SCR by NO2 Normally, NO2 concentrations in most flue gases, including diesel exhaust, are low In diesel SCR systems, NO2 levels are often purposely increased to enhance NOx conversion at low temperatures Negative pathways for NO2 In case the NO2 content has been increased to exceed the NO level in the feed gas, N2O formation pathways are also possible, as shown in Equation (6) and (7): 8NO2 + 6NH3 → 7N2O + 9H2O (6) 4NO2 + 4NH3 + O2 → 4N2O + 6H2O (7) Undesirable processes occurring in SCR systems include several competitive, nonselective reactions with oxygen, which is abundant in the system These reactions can either produce secondary emissions or, at best, unproductively consume ammonia Partial oxidation of ammonia, given by Equations (8) and (9), may produce 84 nitrous oxide (N2O) or elemental nitrogen, respectively Complete oxidation of ammonia, expressed by Equation (10), generates nitric oxide (NO) 2NH3 + 2O2 → N2O + 3H2O (8) 4NH3 + 3O2 → 2N2 + 6H2O (9) 4NH3 + 5O2 → 4NO + 6H2O (10) Ammonia can also react with NO2 producing explosive ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3), Equation (11) This reaction, due to its negative temperature coefficient, occurs at low temperatures, below about 100-200°C Ammonium nitrate may deposit in solid or liquid form in the pores of the catalyst, leading to its temporary deactivation 2NH3 + 2NO2 +H2O → NH4NO3 + NH4NO2 (11) Ammonium nitrate formation can be avoided by making sure that the temperature never falls below 200°C The tendency of NH4NO3 formation can also be minimized by supplying into the gas stream less than the precise amount of NH3 necessary for the stoichiometric reaction with NOx (1 to mole ratio) Negative pathways for SO2 When the flue gas contains sulfur, as is the case with diesel exhaust, SO2 can be oxidized to SO3 with the following formation of H2SO4 upon reaction with H2O These reactions are the same as those occurring in the diesel oxidation catalyst In another reaction, NH3 combines with SO3 to form (NH4)2SO4 and NH4HSO4, Equation (12) and (13), which deposit on and foul the catalyst, as well as piping and equipment At low exhaust temperatures, generally below 250°C, the fouling by ammonium sulfate may lead to a deactivation of the SCR catalyst NH3 + SO3 + H2O → NH4HSO4 (12) 2NH3 + SO3 + H2O → (NH4)2SO4 85 ... followed by the order: RhZSM -5 > Pt -ZSM- 5 > Co- ZSM- 5 > Cu -ZSM- 5 and Rh -ZSM- 5 > Co- ZSM- 5 > CuZSM -5 > Pt -ZSM- 5 [44] in the presence
