Effect Verification
(21) 1. XPS Test
(22) The catalysts prepared in Embodiments 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 are tested by XPS, and the ratio of Ir.sup.+ to Ir.sup.0 (mass ratio, percent (%)) is detected. The results are shown in Table 1.
(23) TABLE-US-00001 TABLE 1 Ir.sup.+/(Ir.sup.+ + Ir.sup.0) Ir.sup.0/(Ir.sup.+ + Ir.sup.0) Sample (%) (%) Embodiment 1 81.77 18.23 Embodiment 2 49.88 50.12 Embodiment 3 31.21 68.79 Comparative Example 1 Comparative Example 2 89.46 10.54 Comparative Example 3 27.64 72.36
(24) According to the relative content ratios of active sites Ir.sup.0 and Ir.sup.+ in the Embodiments and Comparative Examples in Table 1, it may be seen that the ratio of Ir.sup.0 and Ir.sup.+ changes regularly with the changes of the dosage of the first metal precursor solution, the second metal precursor solution, the first ligand and the second ligand. With the decrease of the dosage of the first ligand and the corresponding coordinated first metal precursor solution, the proportion of Ir.sup.0 gradually increased.
(25) 2. CO-SCR Reaction Performance Test
(26) testing 0.25 g of the catalysts prepared in Embodiments 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 respectively, and the methods are as follows: placing the catalyst in a fixed reactor with NO concentration of 400 parts per million (ppm), CO concentration of 8000 ppm, O.sub.2 concentration of 5 volume percentage (vol. %), SO.sub.2 concentration of 100 ppm, N.sub.2 as equilibrium gas and space velocity of 10,000 h-1. The nitrogen oxide conversion rate of the catalyst is tested at different reaction temperatures, and the results are shown in Table 2.
(27) Before the formal performance test, all catalysts are pretreated, and the pretreatment steps are as follows:
(28) The catalyst is pretreated at 200 C. in 5 vol. % H.sub.2 gas flow (N.sub.2 as equilibrium gas) for 30 min to improve its catalytic activity. The calculation method of nitrogen oxide (NO.sub.x) conversion rate (.sub.NOx) in Table 2 is shown in Formula 1-1. In the experiment, the real-time change of gas concentration is measured by Bruker Tensor II infrared spectrum, and the product of complete catalytic reduction is N.sub.2.

(31) Table 2 shows the conversion rates of nitrogen oxides of the catalysts prepared in Embodiments 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 at different temperatures under the conditions of O.sub.2 concentration of 5 vol. % and SO.sub.2 concentration of 100 ppm. It may be seen that the conversion rate of NO.sub.x in Comparative Example 1 is about 0 in all the reaction processes, indicating that the catalytic activity of the molecular sieve carrier itself for CO-SCR reaction is extremely low, and the main role is the Ir active site. Compared with Comparative Example 1, the catalysts prepared in Embodiments 1-3 of the present disclosure have remarkable catalytic activity, and with the increase of the relative content of Ir.sup.0, the conversion first increases and then decreases, showing a volmayic change. As may be seen from Table 1, the overall catalytic activity is the highest when the ratio of Ir.sup.0 to Ir.sup.+ is about 1:1, and the temperature (T.sub.50) is the lowest when the conversion rate of NO.sub.x reaches 50%. When only the first ligand (Comparative Example 2) or the second ligand (Comparative Example 3) is used to coordinate with metal Ir, the technical effect that may be achieved by the embodiment of this application may not be achieved, which further shows that the appropriate relative content ratio of Ir.sup.0 to Ir.sup.+ may effectively promote the increase of the number of active sites, thus improving the catalytic performance of the catalyst.

(38) 0.25 g of the catalyst prepared in Embodiment 2 is tested under the following conditions: the catalyst is placed in a fixed reactor with NO concentration of 400 ppm, CO concentration of 8000 ppm, O.sub.2 concentration of 5 vol. %, SO.sub.2 concentration of 100 ppm, N.sub.2 as equilibrium gas, and space velocity of 10,000 h.sup.1. The nitrogen oxide conversion rate of the catalyst is tested at 250 C., and the results are shown in
(39) Before the formal performance test, all catalysts are pretreated, and the pretreatment steps are as follows: the catalyst is pretreated at 200 C. in 5 vol. % H.sub.2 gas flow (N.sub.2 as equilibrium gas) for 30 min to improve its catalytic activity.

(41) 6. Activity Test of Catalyst Under Different Concentration Ratios of SO.sub.2 and O.sub.2
(42) 0.25 g of the catalyst prepared in Embodiment 3 is tested under different SO.sub.2 concentrations, as follows: the catalyst is placed in a fixed reactor with NO concentration of 400 ppm, CO concentration of 8000 ppm, O.sub.2 concentration of 5 vol. %, SO.sub.2 concentration of 0, 100, 200, 300 and 400 ppm, N.sub.2 as equilibrium gas, temperature of 250 C. and space velocity of 10,000 h.sup.1. The nitrogen oxide conversion rate of the catalyst is tested at different reaction temperatures, and the results are shown in Table 3.
(43) Before the formal performance test, all catalysts are pretreated, and the pretreatment steps are as follows: the catalyst is pretreated at 200 C. in 5 vol. % H.sub.2 gas flow (N.sub.2 as equilibrium gas) for 30 min to improve its catalytic activity. The calculation method of nitrogen oxide (NO.sub.x) conversion rate (UNOx) in Table 3 is the same as that in Formula 1-1.
(44) TABLE-US-00003 TABLE 3 SO.sub.2 0 100 200 300 400 concentration (ppm) O.sub.2:SO.sub.2 500 250 166.67 125 NO.sub.x 12.54 80.06 75.26 61.25 41.38 Conversion
(45) Table 3 shows the NO.sub.x conversion rate of the catalyst prepared in Embodiment 3 at different concentrations of SO.sub.2. In the presence of SO.sub.2, the activity of the catalyst is better than that without SO.sub.2. With the increase of SO.sub.2 concentration, the conversion of NO.sub.x first increased and then decreased. Among them, when the concentration of SO.sub.2 is 100 ppm, the conversion rate of NO.sub.x is the highest, which shows that the catalyst may maintain good activity at an appropriate O.sub.2:SO.sub.2 ratio.
