Lean reduction of NOx(NO and NO2) was studied using monolith-supported catalysts consisting of a layer of a metal-exchanged (Fe, Cu) zeolite (ZSM-5) selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst deposited on top of a Pt/Rh/BaO/CeO2lean NOxtrap (LNT) catalyst. During periodic switching between lean and rich feeds, the LNT layer reduces NOxto N2and NH3. The SCR layer traps the latter, resulting in additional NOxreduction. The dual-layer catalysts exhibited high N2selectivity and low NH3selectivity over the temperature range of 150–300°C. The NOxconversion was incomplete due to undesired side reactions in the LNT layer, such as NH3oxidation to N2O at low temperature and NOxat high temperature. The NOxconversion and N2selectivity of the Cu-exchanged ZSM-5 was higher than that of the Fe-exchanged ZSM-5. This was due to a higher low temperature SCR activity and a higher NH3storage capacity on the Cu-zeolite. The dual-layer catalyst had a higher NOxconversion than the LNT catalyst below 300°C and a higher N2selectivity over the entire temperature range when H2O and CO2were present in the feed. The NOxstorage capacity and NH3generation increased upon addition of CeO2to the LNT layer below 250°C. It also led to increased NH3oxidation at high temperatures. The addition of ceria mitigated the undesirable migration of Pt between the LNT and SCR layers. Hydrothermal aging had a smaller effect on dual-layer catalysts containing ceria.
