A series of catalysts were prepared by doping different loadings of CeO2 over TiO2-SiO2-WO3 and used for the selective catalytic reduction of NOx by NH3. The experimental results showed that the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) performance and SO2-resistant ability of TiO2-SiO2-WO3 were greatly enhanced by the introduction of cerium. The catalyst containing 10% CeO2 showed the highest NO conversion in a wide temperature range and good N2 selectivity with broad operation temperature window at the gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) of 30000 h-1, which was a very promising catalyst for NOx abatement from diesel engine ex-haust. The catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spec-troscopy (SEM-EDS), N2 adsorption-desorption (BET) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The characterization results showed that the bigger pore radius, higher surface atomic concentration and dispersion of Ce and the abundant adsorbed oxygen on the surface of catalyst contributed to the best NH3-SCR performance of CeO2/TiO2-SiO2-WO3 catalyst containing 10%CeO2.
