Facile design of highly effective Fe-modified bimetallic Fex–Ni1−x-MOFs catalysts with rodlike structures for low-temperature NO reduction by CO
A series of Fe-modified bimetallic Fe x –Ni 1− x -MOFs catalysts were successfully synthesized by solvent thermal method for CO-SCR. A significant activity improvement was found over bimetallic MOFs with the highest NO x conversion of 100% achieved on Fe 0.33 –Ni 0.67 -MOFs at 230 °C. The promoted l...
