Abstract:
Upcycling of NO into NH3 provided a win-win strategy for NO purification and NH3 production. In this work, we reported an approach for NH3 production via photo-assisted thermalcatalytic NO and H2O reduction by CO at low temperature and atmospheric pressure. Herein, a Pd/TiO2 model catalyst with electron-enriched Pd and oxygen vacancies dual active sites was applied. The results showed that full NO conversion was realized only at 120 °C, and a beyond 55.0% NH3 selectivity could be obtained below 180 °C over Pd/TiO2. A series of collective spectroscopic and theoretical investigations revealed that CO adsorbed at Pd site and H2O dissociated at interfacial oxygen vacancies would first interact to in situ generate active *H species, and then NO also adsorbed at interfacial oxygen vacancies was gradually hydrogenated by *H to produce NH3. Light irradiation further reinforced this process by promoting oxygen vacancies formation and electron transfer for enhancing CO and NO activation and H2O dissociation. This work provides a valuable insight into NH3 production via photothermal catalytic NO and H2O reduction by CO. © 2025 Elsevier B.V.
