ABSTRACT
Utilizing catalytic combustion to convert methane (CH4) into CO2 and H2O stands as one of the most effective approaches for mitigating unburnt CH4 emissions from natural gas engines. Supported Pd catalysts have been extensively researched for their role in low-temperature CH4 combustion, with their catalytic activity greatly influenced by metal-support interactions. Surface interaction Pd phases, as a special type of Pd species originating from metal-support interactions on supported Pd catalysts, show controversial catalytic performance in CH4 combustion. Moreover, the impact of electronic metal-support interactions (EMSI, which refers to metal-support interactions associated with electron transfer) remains unclear. Hence, we opted for Ce-Zr solid solutions with different CeZr molar ratios as supports and synthesized a range of supported Pd catalysts with varying EMSI intensities. Characterization revealed that as the oxygen vacancy concentration on the support increased, electron transfer weakened, leading to a higher Pd-O-Ce content, resulting in a lower CH4 activation barrier and better catalytic performance. This study offers a promising approach for regulating EMSI and active Pd species on supported catalysts in practical applications.
