TL;DR: Theoretical investigations suggest that the content and type of the nitrogen dopant play crucial roles in determining the catalytic performance and that the pyrrolic nitrogen species makes the dominant contribution to this activity, which explains the excellent efficiency of the PCN-224-700 catalyst well.
Abstract: Metal-free catalysts are of great importance and alternative candidates to conventional metal-based catalysts for many reactions. Herein, several types of metal-organic frameworks have been exploited as templates/precursors to afford porous carbon materials with various nitrogen dopant forms and contents, degrees of graphitization, porosities, and surface areas. Amongst these materials, the PCN-224-templated porous carbon material optimized by pyrolysis at 700 °C (denoted as PCN-224-700) is composed of amorphous carbon coated with well-defined graphene layers, offering a high surface area, hierarchical pores, and high nitrogen content (mainly, pyrrolic nitrogen species). Remarkably, as a metal-free catalyst, PCN-224-700 exhibits a low activation energy and superior activity to most metallic catalysts in the catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol. Theoretical investigations suggest that the content and type of the nitrogen dopant play crucial roles in determining the catalytic performance and that the pyrrolic nitrogen species makes the dominant contribution to this activity, which explains the excellent efficiency of the PCN-224-700 catalyst well.

TL;DR: In this article, a catalytic coating based on a TiO2-V2O5-WO3 catalyst system was developed on a ceramic filter element for combined particle separation and NOx removal or VOC total oxidation.
Abstract: The development of a catalytically active filter element for combined particle separation and NOx removal or VOC total oxidation, respectively, is presented. For NOx removal by selective catalytic reduction (SCR) a catalytic coating based on a TiO2–V2O5–WO3 catalyst system was developed on a ceramic filter element. Different TiO2 sols of tailor-made mean particle size between 40 and 190 nm were prepared by the sol–gel process and used for the impregnation of filter element cylinders by the incipient wetness technique. The obtained TiO2-impregnated sintered filter element cylinders exhibit BET surface areas in the range between 0.5 and 1.3 m2/g. Selected TiO2-impregnated filter element cylinders of high BET surface area were catalytically activated by impregnation with a V2O5 and WO3 precursor solution. The obtained catalytic filter element cylinders show high SCR activity leading to 96% NO conversion at 300 °C, a filtration velocity of 2 cm/s and an NO inlet concentration of 500 vol.-ppm. The corresponding differential pressures fulfill the requirements for typical hot gas filtration applications. For VOC total oxidation, a TiO2-impregnated filter element support was catalytically activated with a Pt/V2O5 system. Complete oxidation of propene with 100% selectivity to CO2 was achieved at 300 °C, a filtration velocity of 2 cm/s and a propene inlet concentration of 300 vol.-ppm.
