Transient and Resonant Behavior for No Reduction by Co over a Pt/Al2O3 Catalyst During Forced Composition Cycling
The reduction of NO by CO over a Pt/Al2O3 catalyst has been investigated using the technique of forced concentration cycling in an isothermal recycle reactor at 485 K. Time-average conversions exhibit resonant behavior with increasing frequency. Maximum time-average NO conversion of 78%, compared with the steady-state conversion of 3.8%, was attained during out-of-phase feed concentration cycling. The effect of the phase angle between the NO and CO feed cycles has been examined. Higher conversions are obtained by decreasing the NO phase lead below 180 degrees. The convergence to cycle-invariance was slow for high frequency cycling.
