Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to oxidation catalysts used in diesel exhaust aftertreatment systems. BACKGROUND

[0002] The catalyst used in the oxidation catalysts (DOC) for diesel exhaust aftertreatment available in the market is a noble metal catalyst coated on a coating layer of an auxiliary catalyst such as alumina / ceria, and the noble metal coating amount generally needs to be 10-40 g / ft 3 , and the greater the noble metal coating amount, the better the catalytic effect. However, the noble metal is expensive, and users cannot afford it.

[0003] CN101939097A relates to a catalyst system free or substantially free of platinum group metals for the reaction of nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and sulfur, comprising a substrate and a washcoat layer, the washcoat layer comprising at least one oxide solid, the oxide solid comprising one or more materials selected from the group consisting of support material oxides, catalysts and mixtures thereof.

[0004] CN101767000A provides a diesel vehicle exhaust soot direct oxidation catalyst and a preparation method thereof. The catalytic material is composed of an oxide carrier MO2 and a bimetallic oxide active component AxByOz, and the structure is AxByOz / MO2. A and B are two metals selected from La, Ce, Fe, K and Cu, and MO2 is an oxide carrier such as TiO2, γ-Al2O3, CeO2 and ZrO2. The preparation method is to form a complex solution by mixing ion solutions of A and B with complexing agents such as citric acid, urea, PVP and oxalic acid, then add one of the above oxides while mechanically stirring to make it fully adsorb, and then put the solution into a muffle furnace at 500-700°C, so that the solution rapidly reacts and decomposes to synthesize the active component in situ on the surface of the oxide.

[0005] CN102000565A discloses a preparation method of a composite catalyst for eliminating diesel vehicle soot, which takes a Ce-Zr-based rare earth composite as a carrier and a La-Mn-based perovskite as an active component. The carrier contains cerium dioxide and zirconium dioxide, and alumina or rare earth oxide is added as a crystal form stabilizer. The preparation process steps include: (1) dissolving nitrate or carbonate of cerium, zirconium and the stabilizer respectively, adding a surfactant solution, adjusting the reaction pH to 7-11, then obtaining a precipitation solution, and roasting to prepare the Ce-Zr-based rare earth composite carrier; (2) dissolving nitrate or citrate of lanthanum, manganese and the additive respectively, preparing a sol impregnation solution, impregnating the Ce-Zr-based rare earth composite carrier in the sol, evaporating and drying, and then roasting to obtain the composite catalyst.

[0006] The above scheme produces catalyst particles, and in the process of coating the DOC or DPF carrier, the particles need to be combined into the DOC or DPF carrier with the help of adhesives and other aids. The addition of the aids causes the coating liquid to chemically react with the catalyst particles during the preparation and sintering process, and the catalytic performance of the coated catalyst is greatly reduced.

[0007] The patent application with application number 2020110169933 and invention name of Oxidation Type Catalyst for Diesel Engine Exhaust Aftertreatment and Manufacturing Method Thereof proposes a catalyst coating with cerium-zirconium composite oxide as the inner coating and lanthanum-manganese-copper composite oxide as the outer coating. The cerium-zirconium composite oxide powder is first prepared, the inner coating is coated with cerium-zirconium composite oxide powder and alumina sol, the outer coating is coated with lanthanum-manganese-copper nitric acid solution, and the catalyst coating in the DOC is sintered to have good treatment effect on particulate matter, HC, CO and NOx. However, it is further found that the coating can still be improved to improve the treatment effect of HC and CO. SUMMARY

Dissolve lanthanum nitrate, manganese nitrate, copper nitrate and nickel nitrate in water according to the proportion of lanthanum, manganese, copper and nickel in the outer layer of the intermediate solid. Add citric acid according to the proportion, and then add the cerium-zirconium-potassium composite citrate-alumina composite. Ball mill for 5-20 hours, stir and heat at 78-85 ℃ until a viscous fluid is formed. Dry at 120-200 ℃ for 4-10 hours, cool, and crush to obtain the intermediate solid.

[0013] D. Apply the catalyst coating solution to the DOC carrier, dry, and sinter at 550-650 ℃.

[0014] E. Repeat step D until the catalyst coating amount in the DOC carrier is 50-100 g / L.

[0015] In the present application, the alumina can be selected from γ-Al2O3 or pseudoboehmite.

[0016] Preferably, in step A, 5-20 wt% of polyethylene glycol or polyethylene glycol-polypropylene glycol block copolymer is added to the mixed solution.

[0018] In step B, 5-20 wt% of polyethylene glycol or polyethylene glycol-polypropylene glycol block copolymer is added to the citric acid.

[0019] The application removes NO2 by heating and reacting metal nitrate and citric acid in solution to form metal composite citrate, and the coating is coated by mixing citrate and metal ion solution, and after sintering, fine pores are formed due to the decomposition of citric acid, so that the catalyst has a high specific surface area, and the metal ion solution of the catalyst composition can play the role of a binder for the DOC carrier, avoiding the negative effects of using alumina sol and other binders to coat the catalyst, so that the oxidation type catalyst can efficiently treat HC and CO in diesel engine exhaust, does not contain noble metals, and can replace the existing noble metal catalyst oxidation type catalyst to reduce the user's use cost.
