Abstract
This article summarises the abatement of NOx pollution by using sorbing catalytic materials with especial relevance to the challenge
presented in fixed installations sources. A general vision of the origins of the different pollutants, with emphasis on nitrogen oxides
formation, is presented as introduction. The impact of NOx pollution comprises additionally a quick view of its toxicity and environmental
effects. Actual solutions are presented especially the case of the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) process with its advantages and
difficulties. The new concepts for NOx abatement are also analysed. In such a way, updated information on solid sorbents for NOx removal is
provided by including metal oxides, spinelles, perovskites, double-layered cuprates, zeolites, carbonaceous materials, heteropolyacids
(HPAs), and supported heteropolyacids. The possibility of reducing those sorbed NOx is also underlined. Sorption mechanisms are analysed
and clarified by emphasising convergence and disagreement points.

The reduction of NOx is between 30% and 75%.
Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO using
ammonia (or other compounds such as hydrocarbons)
as the reductant to form nitrogen and water. The
principal types of catalysts that have been investigated
for SCR are:
(a) Supported noble metal catalysts, e.g., Pd/Al2O3.
(b) Base metal oxide catalysts, e.g., those containing
vanadium.
(c) Metal ion exchanged zeolites, e.g., Cu-ZSM-5.

like Pd, Pt, and Rh which are not active for NO dissociation
(Bhattacharyya and Das, 1999; Garin, 2001).
Introducing foreign cations such as Al+3, Zr+4, or Si+4 into
the CeO2 lattice to form a solid solution, may significantly
improve the stability of the surface and strongly enhance the
redox properties of ceria (Fornasiero et al., 1995; Zhang et
al., 1995; Colon et al., 1999). The increase in oxygen
storage/transport and redox capacities is the result of
enhanced oxygen mobility within the crystal lattice originated from formation of a defective solid solution. This
consideration has been used for example to explain the
higher reducibility of CeO2 and its oxygen storage capacity
in CeO2ZrO2 mixed oxides (Fornasiero et al., 1996; Colon
et al., 1998). Oxygen mobility should be favoured in ceria
zirconia solid solutions because the substitution of Ce4+ with
the smaller Zr4+ cation (radius 0.84 2) causes the shrinking
of the CeO2 fluorite-type lattice and the formation of
structural defects (Cutrufello et al., 2002). The energetics
of oxygen ion transport in the CeO2ZrO2 solid solutions has
been investigated by employing computer simulation techniques. Balducci et al. (1987, 1998) could investigate the
defect properties for the whole composition range and
provide information that is relevant to catalytic behaviour.

water are sorbed, at least partially, on the same sites (Li and
Armor, 1993a,b; Li et al., 1993). Nevertheless, the presence
of oxygen enhances significantly the adsorption of NO via a
N2O3 compound on NaY. Very interesting results were
published by Sultana et al. (2000) when a mixture of
oxidized exhaust gas composed of helium with 500 ppm
NO, 500 ppm NO2, 5% water, 10% O2, and 5% CO2 was
conducted over a bed of NaY zeolite at 423 K. At these
conditions, NO and NO2 are simultaneously adsorbed as
N2O3 by displacing three water molecules. This behaviour is
temperature-dependent and has a maximum at 523 K.
Reducing performance of zeolites using hydrocarbons or
ammonia is also interesting. The Cu-ZSM-5 zeolites showed
increased activity in the reduction of NOx under fuel-lean
conditions when hydrocarbons were added to the feed
(Adelmann et al., 1994). Martens et al. (1998) studied the
reduction of NO2 to N2 at different temperatures over
ferrierite (FER) and mordenite (MOR) zeolites loaded with
5 wt.% of transition metal ions: Ag, Co, Cu, and 1 wt.% Pt.
The silver zeolites are highly actives at all temperatures, in
particular, the Ag/H-FER catalyst transforms more than
60% of the NO2 into N2 between 523 and 723 K. No
deactivation below 873 K was detected even in the presence
of water and, sometimes, 150 ppm of sulfur dioxide.
Because silver cations in zeolites have a low tendency to
undergo hydrolysis and silver oxide particles are thermally
stable, this remarkable catalytic stability is a unique feature
of Ag zeolites. The limiting factor is the hydrothermal
stability of the Brbnsted acid sites of the zeolite. Mechanical
mixtures of platinum ferrierite and silver mordenite, and of
platinum chabazite and silver mordenite, exhibit a synergetic effect on N2 formation in the catalytic reduction of NO
with isooctane and octane in presence of typical oxygen and
water concentrations of fuel-lean exhaust gas. The synergism is explained by the selective NO into NO2 oxidation in
the small pore platinum zeolite and the NO2 reduction in the
large pore silver zeolite (Martens et al., 2001).
The high selectivity of NH3 for NO reduction, combined
with the enhanced reaction rate in presence of O2, makes
NH3 the more preferred reducing agent over zeolite or
molecular sieve catalysts. In zeolite catalysts, the NOx
conversion using NH3 is independent on O2 concentration
over a wide range. The large internal surface area of the
zeolites has the advantage of having large NH3 storage
capacity. As an alternative to noble metals, transition metals
like vanadium (V) and copper (Cu) were the doping elements
for mordenite and Y-zeolites. Among these catalysts, Cudoped Y-zeolite (CuY) showed the best activity with more
than 90% conversion of NO within the temperature range
573653 K. A further increase in temperature, however,
resulted in a strong decrease of NO conversion because of
rapid increase in NH3 oxidation. Presence of Fe3+ cations
were reported to make FeY catalyst active for SCR of NO
by NH3 both in presence and in absence of O2 (Amiridis et
al., 1993). The results of application of an oxidation catalyst
and SCR technology to a stationary diesel and dual-fuel
