No loss in the C3H6-SCR activity was observed for 2 h after the addition of 56 ppm of SO2 to the reaction mixture. When the concentration of SO2 has been increased to 200 ppm (the so-called fast poisoning experiment) the activity of the catalyst decreased by 13% and remained unchanged for more than 5 h under these conditions. The effect of SO2 on the surface reaction of the SCR reactants has been investigated by in situ FT-IR spectroscopy and mechanism for the suppression of the catalytic activity at high concentration of the poison has been proposed.EnglishZro2-nb2o5 Solid SolutionC3h6-scr Of NoxEffect Of So2In Situ Ft-ir SpectroscopyMechanism Of So2 PoisoningArticle10.1016/j.cattod.2010.10.0721873-4308
