Research Progress on Zeolite-Type High-Temperature NH3-SCR Catalysts

Gas turbines operate at exhaust gas temperatures exceeding 500 °C. Vanadium-based catalysts encounter challenges in NH3-SCR denitrification due to vanadium volatilization and titanium dioxide support phase transition at high temperatures. This restricts the effective denitrification temperature range to 300~400 °C, falling short of gas turbine denitrification requirements. Zeolite-supported catalysts, known for their high specific surface area, abundant acid sites, and stable framework structure, demonstrate superior catalytic activity and hydrothermal stability at high temperatures. This review synthesizes recent advancements in high-temperature catalysts utilizing ZSM-5, Beta, SSZ-13, and SAPO-34 zeolites as supports. It elucidates the interaction mechanisms between active components (e.g., transition metals Fe, Cu, W, rare earth elements) and zeolite supports. Furthermore, it examines variations in denitrification performance through the lens of the high-temperature NH3-SCR reaction mechanism, offering valuable insights for high-temperature denitrification catalyst development.
