In this work, bentonite as the representative of layered clays was modified in order to obtain an alternative, low-cost NH3–SCR catalyst. Samples of raw clay were activated with HCl or HNO3, treated with C2H2O4 and subsequently pillared with alumina by the ion- exchange. Afterwards, the modified materials were impregnated with iron and copper. The obtained catalysts were characterized by XRD and FT-IR. SCR catalytic tests carried out over analyzed samples indicated the conversion of NO of approximately 90% for the most active sample. The type of acid used for modification and the type of active phase strongly influenced the catalytic properties of the analyzed materials.}, type={Article}, title={Modified bentonite-derived materials as catalysts for selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides}, URL={http://www.journals.pan.pl/Content/113703/PDF/2-Szymaszek.pdf}, doi={10.24425/cpe.2019.130220}, keywords={pillared bentonite, acid activation, alumina, iron, copper, selective catalytic reduction, NO, DeNOx}, }
