Abstract

Upcycling of NO into NH₃ provided a win-win strategy for NO purification and NH₃ production. In this work, we reported an approach for NH₃ production via photo-assisted thermalcatalytic NO and H₂O reduction by CO at low temperature and atmospheric pressure. Herein, a Pd/TiO₂ model catalyst with electron-enriched Pd and oxygen vacancies dual active sites was applied. The results showed that full NO conversion was realized only at 120 °C, and a beyond 55.0% NH₃ selectivity could be obtained below 180 °C over Pd/TiO₂. A series of collective spectroscopic and theoretical investigations revealed that CO adsorbed at Pd site and H₂O dissociated at interfacial oxygen vacancies would first interact to in situ generate active *H species, and then NO also adsorbed at interfacial oxygen vacancies was gradually hydrogenated by *H to produce NH₃. Light irradiation further reinforced this process by promoting oxygen vacancies formation and electron transfer for enhancing CO and NO activation and H₂O dissociation. This work provides a valuable insight into NH₃ production via photothermal catalytic NO and H₂O reduction by CO.

将 NO 向上循环转化为 NH3 为 NO 净化和 NH3 生产提供了一种双赢策略。在这项工作中，我们报告了一种在低温常压下通过光助热催化 CO 还原 NO 和 H2O 生产 NH3 的方法。在该研究中，我们使用了一种具有电子富集钯和氧空位双活性位点的钯/二氧化钛模型催化剂。结果表明，只有在 120 ℃ 时才能实现氮氧化物的完全转化，而在 180 ℃ 以下，Pd/TiO2 可获得超过 55.0% 的 NH3 选择性。一系列的光谱和理论研究表明，吸附在钯位点上的 CO 和界面氧空位上离解的 H2O 首先会相互作用，在原位生成活性 *H 物种，然后同样吸附在界面氧空位上的 NO 会逐渐被 *H 加氢生成 NH3。光照射通过促进氧空位的形成和电子传递来增强 CO 和 NO 的活化和 H2O 的解离，从而进一步强化了这一过程。这项工作为通过光热催化 CO 还原 NO 和 H2O 生成 NH3 提供了宝贵的见解。
