Abstract
Perovskite-type catalysts were widely used in the field of automobile exhaust purification due to their inherent physicochemical properties and excellent doping characteristics. A series of La1−xMxCo1−yNyO3 (M = Ce, Ca; N = Fe, Mn) perovskite-type catalyst samples were prepared by sol-gel method for the four-way purification of PM, NOx, CO, and HC emitted by diesel exhaust. The activity of catalyst samples was tested by simulation experiments and hydrogen temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR). Catalyst samples were characterized by means of XRD, FT-IR, SEM, BET, and XPS analysis. The results demonstrated that the perovskite-type catalyst samples with a particle pore size of 3–5 μm can be prepared by sol-gel method. When A-site of LaCoO3 perovskite-type oxide was doped by cerium ions, the catalyst samples produced small distortion. The doping of cerium ions to A-site was more conducive to the four-way purification of diesel exhaust than calcium ions. La0.8Ce0.2CoO3 perovskite-type samples showed the best purification efficiency, and the purification efficiencies of PM, NOx, CO, and HC were 90%, 85%, 94%, and 100%, respectively. When the B-site of La0.8Ce0.2CoO3 perovskite was doped with iron ions, the purification efficiency of catalyst samples for PM and NOx can be further enhanced. When the B-site of La0.8Ce0.2CoO3 perovskite was doped with manganese ions, the purification efficiency of the catalyst samples for PM can be further enhanced. It can be seen from the simulation experiments that La0.8Ce0.2Co0.7Fe0.3O3 perovskite was the best doping amount, and the purification efficiencies of PM, NOx, CO, and HC were 95%, 92%, 94%, and 100%, respectively.
