Abstract
The interaction of methane at various temperatures with NO x species formed by room temperature adsorption of NO + O2 mixture on tungstated zirconia (18.6 wt.% WO3) and palladium(II)-promoted tungstated zirconia (0.1 wt.% Pd) has been investigated using in situ FT-IR spectroscopy. A mechanism for the reduction of NO over the Pd-promoted tungstated zirconia is proposed, which involves a step consisting of thermal decomposition of the nitromethane to adsorbed NO and formates through the intermediacy of cis-methyl nitrite. The HCOO- formed acts as a reductant of the adsorbed NO producing nitrogen. © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2007.
