Catalyst for selective catalytic reduction and preparation method therefor
A catalyst for selective catalytic reduction is described. Cerium (III) sulfate (cerous sulfate) is bound to a support. The catalyst also includes vanadium oxide and cerium oxide.
1. A method for preparing a catalyst, the method consisting of:
a) preparing a raw material catalyst, the raw material catalyst consisting essentially of a support material, vanadium oxide, antimony oxide, and cerium oxide, wherein the cerium oxide is cerium (IV) oxide, or a mixture of cerium (III) oxide and cerium (IV) oxide;
b) heating the raw material catalyst to a temperature of 350 to 600° C. under air atmosphere; and
c) treating the heated raw material catalyst with sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ) to form cerium (III) sulfate on the surface of the support by reacting the cerium (IV) oxide of the heated raw material catalyst with the sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ) and O 2 .
2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein in Step c), a concentration of sulfur dioxide at which the catalyst is treated is 50 to 1,000 ppm.
