The use of an oxidation catalyst coated on the filter is the preferred way to accelerate the combustion of accumulated soot and has been widely studied. Various soot oxidation catalysts have been developed, and many metal oxides can lower the soot oxidation temperature [1 5]. Ceria supported cobalt oxides prepared by different routes exhibited good performance for soot combustion [6 12]. Harrison et al. [6] deduced that the high catalytic activity of Co/CeO2 in soot combustion was due to the presence of cobalt in the catalyst as Co3O4 and the redox properties of CeO2. A spillover mechanism at the cobalt oxide ceria interface was postulated to drive the soot oxidation. Methane oxidation experiments are sometimes performed as a test of soot oxidation [13]. Co3O4/CeO2 composite oxides prepared by a co precipitation method showed a superior activity for methane oxidation and CO oxidation and have good resistance to water vapor poisoning [13,14]. From a practical point of view, studying the effect of SO2 on Co3O4/CeO2 composite oxides is of importance because SO2 is present in the exhaust gases. In the present study, a series of Co3O4/CeO2 composite oxide catalysts were prepared by the co precipitation method. The sulfation of the Co3O4/CeO2 catalysts was investigated using X ray diffraction (XRD), X ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), temperature programmed desorption (TPD), and diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS). The soot oxidation activity of the fresh and SO2 poisoned Co3O4/CeO2 composite oxides was investigated and compared using temperature programmed oxidation (TPO). * Corresponding author.

Xiaoyan Shi et al. / Chinese Journal of Catalysis 35 (2014) 1504 1510 1505 2. Experimental 2.1. Catalyst preparation Co3O4/CeO2 composite oxides with increasing Co3O4 loading corresponding to Co/Ce atomic ratios of 0.05 5 (denoted by Co0.05Ce, Co0.2Ce,, Co2.0Ce, and Co5.0Ce), CeO2, and Co3O4 were prepared by a co precipitation method with a K2CO3 solution (15 wt%). In a typical preparation, K2CO3 solution was added dropwise to an aqueous solution of Co(NO3)2 6H2O and Ce(NO3)3 6H2O in appropriate amounts until the ph was 9.10. The mixture solution was stirred for 1 h and was aged at room temperature for 3 h. Then the resulting precipitate was filtered and washed with distilled water until the filtrate ph was neutral. The precipitate was dried overnight at 110 C and calcined for 2 h at 400 C in air. To sulfate the catalysts, 40 60 mesh catalysts were treated with 300 ppm SO2 and 10% O2 in N2 at a flow rate of 400 ml/min at 400 C for different times. The SO2 poisoned catalysts were denoted according to the treatment time, for instance, S 10h was the catalyst sulfated at 400 C for 10 h. 2.2. Catalytic activity measurements The soot used in this work was Printex U (Degussa), which is a model soot reported elsewhere. The catalyst soot mixture (9:1 w/w) for the TPO reaction was obtained by careful grinding in an agate mortar for 10 min (tight contact). It is known that the contact between the soot and catalyst influences the oxidation reaction significantly [3,15]. Although the soot/ catalyst contact obtained by the current mixing procedure did not reflect the actual contact conditions in a catalytic soot trap, nevertheless it permitted reproducible results under the present experimental conditions [16,17]. A catalyst soot mixture diluted with 1.00 g quartz pellets was carefully mixed and put into the quartz tube reactor (internal diameter 6 mm). The TPO test was carried out by heating the soot/catalyst mixture from 200 to 600 C (heating rate 2 C/min) under a total flow rate of 100 ml/min (NO 1000 ppm, O2 5%, Ar as balance). CO2 analysis was performed by GC/TCD (Porapak Q, Agilent) at intervals of 5 min. 2.3. Catalyst characterization The samples were characterized by XRD using a computerized Rigaku D/max RB diffractometer (Japan, Cu Kα radiation). Data were recorded in the 2θ range of 10 90 with an angle step size of 0.02 and a scanning speed of 4 /min. XPS analysis was performed with an EASY ESCA instrument. The spectra were excited by an Al Kα source (1486.6 ev), and the analyzer was operated in the constant analyzer energy (CAE) mode. Survey spectra were measured at 50 ev pass energy. Charging of the samples was corrected for by referencing all the energy to the C 1s peak energy (set at 285.0 ev). TPD was performed in a system equipped with a quadrupole mass spectrometer (Hiden HPR20). In the SO2 TPD, the SO2 poisoned sample was placed in a quartz tube reactor (internal diameter 4 mm). Pure He was used as the carrier, and the total flow of carrier was held at 30 ml/min with the temperature increase rate of 30 C/min. All the samples used in the TPD experiments were the same weight of 300 mg and the same size of 40 60 mesh. DRIFTS spectra were recorded in situ with a Nexus 670 FT IR spectrometer (Thermo Nicolet) equipped with a diffuse reflection chamber and a high sensitivity MCT/A detector cooled by liquid nitrogen. The catalysts for the DRIFTS study was finely ground and placed in a ceramic crucible. All spectra were measured with a resolution of 4 cm 1 and with an accumulation of 100 scans. Sulfate accumulation on test catalysts was investigated by DRIFTS in a flow of SO2 300 ppm, O2 20%, and N2 as balance for 60 min at 400 C. 3. Results and discussion 3.1. Activity test The TPO results of soot combustion in a NO/O2 mixture over the various Co3O4/CeO2 oxides, pure CeO2, and Co3O4 are shown in Fig. 1(a). Clearly, the presence of cobalt greatly improved the soot oxidation activity of CeO2 even at as low a content as Co/Ce = 0.05.

1506 Xiaoyan Shi et al. / Chinese Journal of Catalysis 35 (2014) 1504 1510 little dependence on the Co/Ce ratio of the Co3O4/CeO2 composite oxide when the Co/Ce atomic ratio was higher than 0.2. Co3O4/CeO2 composite oxides with Co/Ce atomic ratios ranging from 0.2 to 5.0 showed a similar activity with a maximum in the temperature range 330 350 C. In the studies of Dhakad et al. [7] and Liu et al. [8], Co3O4 CeO2 oxides or CeO2 supported Co showed significantly improvement for soot combustion compared to CeO2 and Co3O4. There was a synergistic effect between ceria and cobalt. For studying the effect of SO2 on the activity of soot oxidation over Co3O4/CeO2, Co0.2Ce,, and Co5.0Ce were treated in a flow of a SO2 + O2 mixture at 400 C for 6 h. Then the TPO experiments were carried out. As seen in Fig. 1(b), the treatment by SO2 caused some loss of activity for the tested samples. The catalyst displayed the best SO2 resistance among the three tested samples. Based on these results, the catalyst was selected for further studies. Figure 1(c) shows the TPO profiles of the catalysts with different SO2 exposure time, the TPO profile for CeO2 after sulfation for 20 h and for Co3O4 after sulfation for 40 h. The activity of the catalyst decreased with increasing sulfur poisoning time. With increasing sulfur poisoning time, soot oxidation by the catalyst started at a slower rate, and it was completed at a higher temperature. The TPO profile of S 40h consisted of a double peak, which showed better catalytic activity than CeO2 sulfated for 20 h. Co3O4 showed the best sulfur resistance in soot oxidation under tight contact. 3.2. Characterization analysis Figure 2 shows the XRD patterns of the CeO2, Co3O4, and catalysts (fresh, 15 h sulfated, and 40 h sulfated). All the reflections of pure cobalt oxide and pure cerium oxide were assignable to the cobalt spinel structure (JCPDS 80 1541) and fluorite oxide structure (JCPDS 34 0394), respectively. There was no other phase on the Ce1.0Co catalysts except for these two phases. The broad Co3O4 peaks observed in the fresh indicated that the Co3O4 was well dispread on the CeO2. The XRD patterns of the sulfated Ce1.0Co catalysts were almost the same as the fresh sample, which indicated that no crystalline sulfate species was formed on the Ce1.0Co catalysts Intensity CeO2 -S-15h Co 3O 4 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 2 Fig. 2.

SO2 TPD results using a He carrier gas for the various samples. from the sulfation. The SO2 TPD results of the sulfated samples are illustrated in Fig. 3. These showed that the decomposition of the sulfate species to SO2 was at 800 C for CeO2 S 20h and at 840 C for Co3O4 S 40h. The TPD curves of Ce1.0Co S 15h and Ce1.0Co S 40h showed two SO2 desorption peaks: a large low temperature peak at 845 C and a minor high temperature peak at 890 C. In addition, the low temperature desorption peaks increased significantly with increased SO2 treatment time, while the high temperature peaks were independent of SO2 treatment time. More interestingly, the Ce1.0Co S 10h sample only showed the high temperature peak at around 890 C. It has been reported that sulfation of the CeO2 resulted in both surface and bulk sulfates [18,19]. After exposure to 1% SO2 in excess O2 at 400 C, the TPD in He of Pd/CeO2 gave a SO2 peak at 750 C assigned to Ce 4+ sulfate, and the peak of the decomposition of Ce 3+ sulfate to SO2 was at a higher temperature of 850 C [18]. Only one peak of SO2 decomposition on CeO2 was observed at 800 C here. In this study, the exposure of the samples to SO2 in excess O2 at 400 C was carried out for a long time (up to 40 h). It has been shown that the stable sulfate formed at 400 C in the presence of excess O2 is Ce2(SO4)3 and not Ce(SO4)2 [18,19]. This suggested that the high intensity peak at 840 C observed for S 15h and S 40h should be associated with Ce 3+ sulfate. The small sulfate decomposition peaks at 890 C observed in the S 10h, S 15h, and S 40h were associated with the same sulfate species, and the amount of SO2 from the decomposition at 890 C was the same for S 15h and S 40h. The interaction of SO2 with the chosen catalyst was also studied by XPS. In Fig. 4, the experimental and fitted Ce 3d spectra of fresh Ce1.0Co and S 40h are shown. The spectra in the Ce 3d region were fitted with eight peaks corresponding to four pairs of spin orbit doublets [19]. The labeling of the peaks followed the convention adopted by Teterin et al. [20]. According to the literature [13,19,20], three pairs of peaks (V, U; V, U ; V, U ) are the characteristic of the Ce 4+ oxidation state while the couple (V, U ) corresponds to Ce 3+ ions. An obvious increase in the intensity of the couple (V, U ) peaks was observed in the Ce 3d spectra of S 40h, which suggested that Ce 3+ species on the catalyst increased

This indicated that during the sulfation of at 400 C, Ce 4+ ions were gradually reduced to Ce 3+. This result was in accordance with those reported by Smirnov et al. [19]. The atomic ratio Ce 3+ / (Ce 4+ +Ce 3+ ) was estimated from the ratio of the intensity of V and U components to the total intensity of the entire Ce 3d curve [19]. The calculation showed that the fraction of Ce 3+ ions in the fresh and S 40h was 14% and v''' v v' v'' 22%, respectively. This suggested 8% increase in Ce 3+ species of related to the 40 h exposure to SO2 in excess O2. Figure 5 illustrates the experimental XPS spectra of the Co 2p3/2, O 1s, and S 2p regions for fresh and S 40h. The Co 2p3/2 peak binding energy (BE) for appeared at 781.2 ev, in agreement with the reference data [13,14,21]. There was no change in the BE for Co 2p3/2 of S 40h, which was observed at 781.1 ev. A high intensity S 2p feature appeared from S 40h at 169.2 ev and can be assigned to cerium sulfate species [19]. The O 1s feature recorded from fresh Ce1.0Co was at 529.6 ev while that from S 40h was sifted to a higher BE (~532 ev) and had increased intensity. The oxygen in the large amount of sulfate species caused the shift and increased intensity of the O 1s BE and peak. Figure 6 shows the DRIFTS spectra with time of CeO2, Co3O4, and after exposure to a flow of SO2+O2 at 400 C. Several bands in the 1400 900 cm 1 region appeared after the exposure to the SO2+O2 gas. The broad band at 1130 cm 1 with the highest intensity was due to the sulfates in the bulk [22,23]. The small bands at 1334 cm 1 can be assigned to surface sulfate. The species responsible for the peak at 1001 cm 1 (970 cm 1 in the spectrum from Co3O4) can be assigned to sulfites [22]. From the comparison of the changes of the DRIFTS spectra of CeO2, Co3O4, and with time, it was deduced that both cobalt sulfate and ceria sulfate were formed during the exposure of the catalysts to the SO2+O2 flow. The spectra recorded from CeO2 with time were essentially identical (Fig. 6(a)). The shift of the band at 1100 cm 1 to higher vibration was caused by the accumulation of sulfate species. This strong and broad band at 1138 cm 1 was due to the formation of bulk Ce(SO4)2 [23,24]. The IR bands from are shown in Fig. 6(b).

The mechanism that dominates depends on the contact between the catalyst and soot. The preparation procedure of the catalyst and soot mixture in this study produced the contact that is essentially tight contact [1 3]. In the NOx assisted soot oxidation reaction over CeO2, active oxygen generated from both nitrate and surface oxygen decomposition plays an important role in the acceleration of soot oxidation [4]. A redox mechanism assisted by oxygen spillover on CeO2 occurs in the Co/CeO2 catalyzed reaction of soot in a NO/O2 mixture [6]. In the literature [4,6,7,8,25], a redox mechanism on Co sites and a spillover mechanism from Ce sites were proposed for the activity of Co3O4/CeO2 composite oxides in soot oxidation. The redox properties and the active oxygen generated from surface nitrate decomposition were proposed to be important factors for soot combustion in a NO/O2 mixture. The redox mechanism would be the dominant mechanism for soot oxidation activity in the contact type used in this work. The slight difference in soot combustion activity between the Co3O4/CeO2 composite oxides with different Co/Ce ratios (Co/Ce > 0.2) can be understood with this mechanism. Sulfur exposure significantly decreased the activity of CeO2 for soot combustion. The temperature of the TPO maximum for fresh CeO2 was 410 C and for CeO2 S 20h was 525 C. Peralta et al. [26] reported that the temperature of the TPO maximum increased from 523 to 558 C in loose contact after 31 h SO2 treatment. This suggested that the effect of sulfur exposure on catalytic activity was more significant for tight contact than for loose contact, which suggested that the sulfur exposure mainly influenced the redox property of CeO2, which was important for soot combustion in tight contact. A significant sulfur tolerance was observed with Co3O4/CeO2 compared to CeO2. The TPO maximum for was increased from 340 to 370 C. A continuous decrease in activity of was observed with the increase in exposure time. Sulfate accumulation on increased with increasing SO2 treatment time according to the SO2 TPD profiles (Fig. 4). The FTIR spectra suggested that both cerium sulfate (Ce 3+ and Ce 4+ ) and cobalt sulfate species were formed on after exposure to the SO2+O2 gas flow at 400 C. For CeO2, bulk sulfate Ce(SO4)2 was largely formed by exposure to SO2+O2 at 400 C [19,24]. Ce2(SO4)3 was the only stable sulfate under the current sulfur exposure condition [18]. The formation of sulfate species on ceria was generally accompanied by the reduction of Ce 4+ to Ce 3+ [19]. The sulfation of Co3O4/CeO2 () showed similar results to that of CeO2. A significant increase of Ce 3+ in Co3O4/CeO2 was shown by the XPS results. A long exposure time to SO2 + O2 showed no effect on the electronic state of the cobalt according to the XPS results. Liotta et al. [21] also found that the Co 2p spectrum did not change upon sulfur poisoning when they studied the SO2 effect on Pd/Co3O4 catalysts for CH4 oxidation. This suggested that Co3O4 SO3 was the dominant sulfate formed on Co3O4 [21]. The double peak in the TPO profile of S 40h can be attributed to the activity of Co3O4 in the catalyst. 4. Conclusions The exposure of CeO2, Co3O4, and Co3O4/CeO2 composite oxides to SO2 under oxidizing conditions at 400 C resulted in the formation of sulfate. The decomposition of cerium sulfate

Both cobalt sulfate and ceria sulfate were formed on Co3O4/CeO2 composite oxides during SO2 exposure. Ce 4+ was gradually reduced to Ce 3+ during the sulfation process. Bulk sulfate was formed on CeO2, and the cobalt sulfate mainly existed as Co3O4 SO3. A series of Co3O4/CeO2 composite oxides prepared by co precipitation showed better catalytic activity for soot combustion in tight contact than CeO2. Sulfur poisoning resulted in a decrease in activity of the Co3O4/CeO2 composite oxides, CeO2, and Co3O4. The sulfur tolerance of Co3O4/CeO2 was higher than CeO2 but lower than Co3O4.
