Catalysts having a blend of platinum on a support with low ammonia storage with a Cu-SCR catalyst or an Fe-SCR catalyst are disclosed. The catalysts can also contain one or two additional SCR catalysts. The catalysts can be present in one of various configurations. Catalytic articles containing these catalysts are disclosed. The catalytic articles are useful for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx in exhaust gases and in reducing the amount of ammonia slip. Methods for producing such articles are described. Methods of using the catalytic articles in an SCR process, where the amount of ammonia slip is reduced, are also described.
1. A catalytic article comprising a substrate having an inlet and outlet and coated with a first coating comprising a blend of (a) platinum on a molecular sieve support with low ammonia storage with (b) a first SCR catalyst; a second coating comprising a second SCR catalyst; wherein the second coating at least partially overlaps the first coating, where the ratio of the amount of the first SCR catalyst to the amount of platinum on the support with low ammonia storage is in the range of 10:1 to 50:1, inclusive, based on the weight of these components.
2. The catalytic article of claim 1 , wherein the first SCR catalyst is a Cu-SCR catalyst or a Fe-SCR catalyst.
3. The catalytic article of claim 1 , where the second coating completely overlaps the first coating.
4. The catalyst article of claim 1 , wherein the second coating overlaps at least 20% of the length of the first coating along an axis from the inlet to the outlet.
5. The catalytic article of claim 1 , where the support comprises a silica or a zeolite with silica-to-alumina ratio of at least one of: (a) ≥100, (b) ≥200, (c) ≥250, ≥300, (d) ≥400, (e) ≥500, (f) ≥750 and (g) ≥1000.
6. The catalyst of claim 1 , where the blend further comprises at least one of palladium (Pd), gold (Au), silver (Ag), ruthenium (Ru) or rhodium (Rh).
7. The catalytic article of claim 1 , where the first SCR catalyst comprises Cu or Fe loaded on a molecular sieve selected from the group of Framework Types consisting of ACO, AEI, AEN, AFN, AFT, AFX, ANA, APC, APD, ATT, CDO, CHA, DDR, DFT, EAB, EDI, EPI, ERI, GIS, GOO, IHW, ITE, ITW, LEV, KFI, MER, MON, NSI, OWE, PAU, PHI, RHO, RTH, SAT, SAV, SIV, THO, TSC, UEI, UFI, VNI, YUG, ZON, BEA, MFI, and FER, and mixtures and/or intergrowths thereof.
8. The catalytic article of claim 1 , where the second SCR catalyst is a base metal supported on a molecular sieve, wherein the base metal is selected from the group consisting of vanadium (V), molybdenum (Mo) and tungsten (W), chromium (Cr), cerium (Ce), manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), and copper (Cu), and mixtures thereof.
9. The catalyst of claim 1 , where platinum is present from at least one of: (a) 0.01-0.3 wt. %, (b) 0.03-0.2 wt. %, (c) 0.05-0.17 wt. %, and (d) 0.07-0.15 wt. %, inclusive, relative to the weight of the support of platinum+the weight of platinum+the weight of the first SCR catalyst in the blend.
10. An exhaust system comprising the catalytic article of claim 1 and a means for converting NH 3 and NOx in the exhaust gas.
11. The exhaust system of claim 10 , wherein the ANR is >1.0 for at least a portion of the operating time of the system.
12. The exhaust system of claim 10 , further comprising a third SCR catalyst that provides <100% NOx conversion, where the third SCR catalyst is a Cu-zeolite only SCR catalyst and the third catalyst is placed an exhaust gas flow upstream of the catalyst article of claim 1 .
