As the environmental regulations are getting more stringent, it is of great importance to develop a catalytic aftertreatment system for natural gas-fired lean-burn engines to reduce the emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx), unburned hydrocarbons (CH4, C2H6, and C3H8) and carbon monoxide efficiently. We have developed a dual-catalyst aftertreatment system which utilizes the hydrocarbons present in the exhaust streams of lean-burn engines for reducing NOxemissions. The dual-catalyst aftertreatment system is a physical mixture composed of a reduction catalyst, palladium supported on sulfated zirconia (Pd/SZ), and an oxidation catalyst, cobalt supported on ceria. Such a catalytic system which utilizes methane in the exhaust stream offers several advantages considering that the emissions of air-pollutant greenhouse gases are controlled in a single unit without a need of injecting and handling an external reducing agent such as ammonia [1-3]. Development of a catalytically active washcoat for monolith cores is essential for the practical use of this dual-catalyst system. However, if the washcoat adheres poorly to the monolith core, the aftertreatment unit will suffer from the irreversible loss of the catalytically active phase. In order to improve the adhesive properties, conventionally, binders are used in a catalyst slurry. In this study, we have aimed to improve the adhesive properties at the molecular level. For this purpose, alumina, as a binder, was incorporated in situ to the sol-gel medium of Pd/SZ prior to the gelation during synthesis. Samples prepared by this novel approach have shown superior differences in terms of catalytic performance than the samples prepared by the conventional method. Addition of binder before gelation to the sol-gel medium also resulted in changes of textural and structural properties of binder-free samples, and adhesive properties of the washcoat as shown by N2 physisorption, in-situ X-ray diffraction (XRD) calcination, 27Al-NMR, laser RAMAN and infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and ultrasonication, Water and sulfur tolerance as well as hydrothermal stability of the binder-incorporated catalyst will be presented as well.

Wash-Coat Development for Lean-Burn Engine-Exhaust Aftertreatment: Incorporation of Binder to Pd Supported on Sulfated Zirconia

Sooting behavior of ethanol droplet combustion at elevated pressures under microgravity conditions
URBAN, BRADLEY D; KROENLEİN, KENNETH; KAZAKOV, ANDREİ; DRYER, FREDERİCK L; Yozgatlıgil, Ahmet; CHOI, MUN YOUNG; MANZELLO, SAMUEL L; LEE, KYEONG OOK; DOBASHİ, RİTSU (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2004-01-01)
Liquid ethanol is widely used in practical fuels as a means to extend petroleum-derived resources or as a fuel additive to reduce emissions of carbon monoxide from spark ignition engines. Recent research has also suggested that ethanol and other oxygenates could be added to diesel fuel to reduce particulate emissions. In this cursory study, the combustion of small ethanol droplets in microgravity environments was observed to investigate diffusion flame characteristics at higher ambient pressures and at vari...
Upgrading Lignocellulosic Products to Drop-In Biofuels via Dehydrogenative Cross-Coupling and Hydrodeoxygenation Sequence

Life-cycle analysis (LCA) allows the scientific community to identify the sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of novel routes to produce renewable fuels. Herein, we integrate LCA into our investigations of a new route to produce drop-in diesel/jet fuel by combining furfural, obtained from the catalytic dehydration of lignocellulosic pentose sugars, with alcohols that can be derived from a variety of bio- or petroleum-based feedstocks. As a key innovation, we developed recyclable transition-metal-free ...
Study of water-oil emulsion combustion in large pilot power plants for fine particle matter emission reduction
Allouis, Christophe Gerard; L'Insalata, A.; Fortunato, L.; Saponaro, A.; Beretta, F. (2007-04-01)
The combustion of heavy fuel oil for power generation is a great source of carbonaceous and inorganic particle emissions, even though the combustion technologies and their efficiency are improving. The information about the size distribution function of the particles originated by trace metals present into the fuels is not adequate. In this paper, we focused our attention the influence of emulsion oil-water on the larger distribution mode of both the carbonaceous and metallic particles. Isokinetic sampling ...
Numerical investigations on flashback dynamics of premixed methane-hydrogen-air laminar flames
Kıymaz, Tahsin Berk; Böncü, Emre; Güleryüz, Dilay; Karaca, Mehmet; YILMAZ, BARIŞ; Allouis, Christophe Gerard; Gökalp, İskender (2022-07-12)
© 2022 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLCInjecting hydrogen into the natural gas network to reduce CO2 emissions in the EU residential sector is considered a critical element of the zero CO2 emissions target for 2050. Burning natural gas and hydrogen mixtures has potential risks, the main one being the flame flashback phenomenon that could occur in home appliances using premixed laminar burners. In the present study, two-dimensional transient computations of laminar CH4 + air and CH4 + H2 + air flames are per...
