Abstract
The catalytic reduction of N2O by H2, NH 3, CO, propene and n-decane, in the presence of O2, has been studied on two Fe-zeolite-β (Fe-BEA) catalysts. In the following experimental conditions (GHSV=35000 h-1, 2000 ppm N2O, 3% O2), CO starts to reduce N2O from 473 K and is the most efficient reductant in the low temperature domain. The absence of strong adsorption and the ability to reduce FeIII oxo-cations can be put forward to explain this behaviour. At medium temperature range n-decane become very reactive to reduce N2O. Finally, in the absence of NH 3 slip, this reductant can be considered as an excellent candidate owing to the harmless of its reduction products.
