The application discloses a diesel oxidation catalyst for reducing N2O emission and a preparation method thereof. First and second catalytic
coating layers of the catalyst are continuously coated on a carrier in sections, a third catalytic
coating layer is located on the upper layer of the first catalytic
coating layer, and a fourth catalytic coating layer is located on the upper layer of the second catalytic coating layer. The first and second catalytic coating
layers are used for purifying HC / CO pollutants and oxidizing
NOx into NO2. The third
noble metal active component of the third catalytic coating layer is composed of Pt or a mixture of Pt and Pd, and the ratio of Pt / Pd is 5:1-1:0. The fourth
noble metal active component of the fourth catalytic coating layer is one or more of Pt, Pd, Rh and Ru. The third catalytic coating layer is used for reducing the selectivity of the DOC catalyst to N2O when oxidizing NH3 and the selectivity to N2O when the HC-SCR reaction is performed. The fourth catalytic coating layer adopts a coating layer with N2O
decomposition capacity, and the N2O selectively generated in the upstream section is decomposed into N2. The catalyst coating
layers are mutually cooperative, have basic DOC catalytic performance, and can reduce N2O emission.
