Abstract

Deactivation of CuMFI catalysts under NO selective catalytic reduction (SCR) by propene in both the absence and the presence of water was investigated as a function of zeolite form, Si/Al ratio and copper content. It was verified that the CuMFI deactivation extent is higher on H-form zeolite compared to Na-form and decreases when the copper exchange level increases, which can be achieved either by increasing the zeolite Si/Al ratio or the copper content. Furthermore, the results indicated that the catalyst deactivation is mainly due to a change in copper species rather than in MFI structure.
