Model studies of NOx storage and sulphur deactivation of NOx storage catalysts

• The storage of NOx under lean conditions in model NOx storage catalysts as well as the deactivation by sulphur have been studied. We find that NO2 plays an important role in the storage mechanism as an oxidising agent. Two different mechanisms for this are discussed: the formation of surface peroxides and the oxidation of nitrites to nitrates, FTIR studies show that NOx is stored as surface nitrates, The sulphur deactivation is found to be more severe when SO2 is added during the rich phase than when SO2 is added during the lean period. FTIR shows the formation of bulk sulphates both under lean and rich conditions.
