Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of catalytic removal technology of gaseous pollutants, specifically relating to a surface-modified perovskite oxide, its modification method, and its uses. Background Technology

[0002] Carbon monoxide (CO) is a low-quality combustible gas produced by the incomplete combustion of carbon-containing fuels such as coal and petroleum. Improper use can lead to its harmful effects, causing serious environmental and atmospheric pollution due to its emission alongside industrial flue gas. Catalytic oxidation is the most widely used low-concentration CO removal technology in industrial production and daily life. This technology converts CO into CO2 gas at a certain temperature in an oxygen-containing atmosphere through the action of a catalyst, before it is emitted. The catalyst is the core of catalytic oxidation technology; a stable, durable, and inexpensive catalyst is crucial for the efficient catalytic elimination of gaseous pollutants.

[0003] Currently, catalysts used in the catalytic oxidation of CO are mainly divided into noble metal catalysts and non-noble metal catalysts. Among non-noble metal catalysts, perovskite oxides are considered a very promising class of catalysts. Perovskite is a type of metal oxide with the structure ABO3, where the A-site is usually a rare earth or alkaline earth metal element, such as La, Sr, and Ba, the B-site is a transition metal element, such as Co, Mn, Fe, and Ni, and O is oxygen. Perovskite oxides have good thermal stability and excellent redox properties. In addition, compared with common noble metal catalysts, perovskite catalysts are relatively inexpensive, thus attracting more and more research teams to dedicate themselves to developing perovskite catalysts with superior performance.

[0004] Although perovskite oxides possess unique advantages in terms of thermal stability and cost, they still lag significantly behind precious metal catalysts in catalytic activity. Furthermore, perovskite oxides exhibit relatively poor stability and impurity tolerance in practical applications. Specifically, in actual CO gas pollution treatment, the gas to be treated often contains multiple impurities, such as H₂O and NO₂. x Sulfur-containing components, such as SO2, significantly reduce the catalytic activity of perovskite oxides. These two points are the main obstacles restricting their further development and widespread application.

[0005] It is well known that the catalytic activity of perovskite oxides is closely related to their physicochemical properties, especially the surface physicochemical properties. To address these two types of issues, researchers have attempted to improve the catalytic activity and sulfur resistance of perovskite catalysts by optimizing the catalyst composition (e.g., doping other elements at the A and B sites of the perovskite, or using non-chemical dosages at the A and B sites), improving preparation methods (ceramic method, sol-gel method, co-precipitation method, flame spray method), modifying the surface of the perovskite catalyst, and constructing special porous structures. However, the mainstream technologies reported so far have limited effectiveness in improving catalyst performance, especially in resisting sulfur deactivation. Furthermore, the processes for preparing or improving these catalysts are generally cumbersome and involve numerous steps, further limiting the potential for commercial-scale application.

[0006] Therefore, based on existing perovskite oxides, it is particularly important to develop a low-cost perovskite oxide with a simple preparation process, high catalytic activity, high impurity tolerance, and suitable for surface modification of CO catalytic oxidation technology, as well as its modification method. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To overcome the above problems, the present invention aims to provide a surface-modified perovskite oxide catalyst.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the surface modification method for perovskite oxides of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0009] Step 1: Impregnate the perovskite oxide powder in the modified solution, then filter and dry the resulting solid;

[0010] Step 2: Calcine the dried solid to obtain the modified perovskite oxide;

[0011] Furthermore, the perovskite oxide in step 1 has the composition form of ABO3, where A represents one or more rare earth and alkaline earth metal elements; B represents one or more transition metal elements; and the particle size of the perovskite oxide powder is less than 0.1 mm.

[0012] Furthermore, the modified solution in step 1 is an aqueous solution of TiCl4 or an ethanol solution with a concentration of 2 mmol / L to 100 mmol / L.

[0013] Furthermore, in the impregnation process described in step 1, the ratio of perovskite oxide mass to modified solution volume is between 8 g (perovskite) / L (modified solution) and 40 g (perovskite) / L (modified solution), the impregnation temperature is between 5 and 40°C, and the impregnation time is between 20 and 600 s.

[0014] Furthermore, the drying process described in step 1 refers to drying at 50–100°C for 5–20 hours.

[0015] Furthermore, the calcination treatment mentioned in step 2 refers to calcination at 250–600°C for 1–10 hours.

[0016] Furthermore, the calcination process described in step 2 is carried out in an air atmosphere, an inert gas atmosphere, or a mixture of air and inert gas atmosphere; wherein the inert gas is one or more of nitrogen, argon, and helium.

[0017] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a surface-modified perovskite oxide prepared by the above-described modification method.

[0018] Furthermore, the molar percentage of Ti on the surface of the surface-modified perovskite oxide, as detected by XPS, is 2-20%.

[0019] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention relates to the use of the surface-modified perovskite oxide according to the above description as a catalyst in the catalytic oxidation of CO.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0021] This invention effectively loads more stable titanium elements onto the surface of perovskite oxides through surface modification. Compared with ordinary perovskite oxides, the surface-modified perovskite of this invention not only has higher catalytic activity, but also high stability and high sulfur resistance, making it a stable and efficient CO oxidation catalyst.

[0022] Furthermore, the perovskite oxide surface modification method of the present invention is simple in steps, easy to operate, and easy to scale up for production, which can save a lot of costs for industrial production.

[0023] Furthermore, the surface-modified perovskite catalyst of the present invention can be applied to the catalytic oxidation of CO. Attached Figure Description
