Abstract:
Aiming at purification of NOx from hydrogen internal combustion engines (HICEs), the hydrogen selective catalytic reduction (H2-SCR) reaction was investigated over a series of Pt/KFI zeolite catalysts. H2 can readily reduce NOx to N2 and N2O while O2 inhibited the deNOx efficiency by consuming the reductant H2. The Pt/KFI zeolite catalysts with Pt loading below 0.1 wt.% are optimized H2-SCR catalysts due to its suitable operation temperature window since high Pt loading favors the H2-O2 reaction which lead to the insufficient of reactants. Compared to metal Pt0 species, Ptδ+ species showed lower activation energy of H2-SCR reaction and thought to be as reasonable active sites. Further, Eley-Rideal (E-R) reaction mechanism was proposed as evidenced by the reaction orders in kinetic studies. Last, the optimized reactor was designed with hybrid Pt/KFI catalysts with various Pt loading which achieve a high NOx conversion in a wide temperature range.

Reduction of Alkenes: Asymmetric Catalytic Hydrogenation
The metal catalyst used can be either heterogeneous or homogeneous. When hydrogenation of an alkene generates a chiral center, a pair of enantiomeric products is expected to form. However, an enantiomeric excess of one of the products can be facilitated using an enantioselective reaction or an...
Reduction of Alkenes: Catalytic Hydrogenation
Metals like palladium, platinum, and nickel are commonly used in their solid forms — fine powder on an inert surface. As these catalysts remain insoluble in the reaction mixture, they are referred to as heterogeneous catalysts.

Reduction of Alkynes to cis-Alkenes: Catalytic Hydrogenation
Like alkenes, alkynes can be reduced to alkanes in the presence of transition metal catalysts such as Pt, Pd, or Ni. The reaction involves two sequential syn additions of hydrogen via a cis-alkene intermediate.
