Pollution of groundwater with NO3–is a serious problem in the world. While catalytic reduction of NO3–over Pd-bimetallic catalysts including Cu-Pd and Sn-Pd is a promising method for purification of the groundwater, the use of precious metal is a major obstacle for practical applications. In the present study, we applied Ni/Al2O3for the catalytic reduction of NO3–and compared the catalytic performance with that of unsupported Ni catalyst. The reaction rate over 5 wt.% Ni/Al2O3was about 5 times higher than that of the unsupported Ni catalyst, based on unit weight of catalyst. While the unsupported Ni catalyst was completely deactivated in low partial pressure of H2(=0.75 atm) and high concentration of NO3–(=800 ppm), Ni/Al2O3was still active even under less reductive conditions ([NO3–]0= 800 ppm and P(H2) =0.5 atm). The unsupported Ni catalyst had the Ni0particles formed by the reduction of NiO with H2at 310–420 °C. On the other hand, 5 wt.% Ni/Al2O3possessed the Ni0particles formed from NiAl2O4on Al2O3by the reduction with H2above 450 °C. It is plausible that those Ni0particles had different properties, giving different catalytic properties. The Ni loadings for Ni/Al2O3had a significant impact on the catalytic properties. The reaction orders with respect to both NO3–and H2were 0.8 for 5 wt.% Ni/Al2O3, while those were 0 and –0.2, respectively, for 10 wt.% Ni/Al2O3. On 10 wt.% Ni/Al2O3, there were two kinds of the Ni° particles, which were formed by low (310-420 °C) and high (above 450 °C) temperature H2reductions. Unlike the Pd-bimetallic catalysts, the reduction of NO3–over Ni/Al2O3did not proceed through NO2–.
