Detection of key transient Cu intermediates in SSZ-13 during NH₃-SCR deNO _x by modulation excitation IR spectroscopy.

ABSTRACT: The small pore zeolite Cu-SSZ-13 is an efficient material for the standard selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides (NO _x ) by ammonia (NH₃). In this work, Cu-SSZ-13 has been studied at 250 °C under high conversion using a modulation excitation approach and analysed with phase sensitive detection (PSD). While the complementary X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy measurements showed that the experiments were performed under cyclic Cu⁺/Cu²⁺ redox, Diffuse Reflectance Infrared Fourier Transform Spectroscopy (DRIFTS) experiments provide spectroscopic evidence for previously postulated intermediates Cu-N([double bond, length as m-dash]O)-NH₂ and Cu-NO₃ in the NH₃-SCR deNO _x<
