Ammonia slip in NH 3 -SCR will lead to the formation of viscous salt, which may block the downward heat exchangers, which is particularly serious in oil refinery stations. Oil refinery stations are usually rich in low concentration propane (C 3 H 6 ), and C 3 H 6 -SCR is considered to be a very promising NO x emission reduction technology. This study reported an effective NO x reduction catalyst based on low concentration C 3 H 6 at medium-low temperature. CeO 2 was used to optimize the catalyst, but instead of doping CeO 2 to active component, and it was found that doping CeO 2 on TiO 2 to produce Ce-Ti synthetic support was effective. This study elucidates that in refinery tail gas environment, a 5 wt.% Mn loaded on Ce-Ti support catalyst (Mn 5 -Ce/TiO 2 ) can achieve 70% NO conversion, meanwhile the N 2 selectivity is 100%. In order to explore the mechanism of activity enhancement, the catalysts were characterized before and after reaction. The results indicate that the addition of CeO 2 provided more acid sites for the adsorption of propene, and the structure and properties of Mn 5 -Ce/TiO 2 hardly changed after reaction, which helped to maintain high activity in de-NO x process. The oxidation of Ce 3+ to Ce 4+ , and the reduction of Mn 3+ to Mn 2+ promoted the reduction of NO, while the oxygen bridge Ce-O-Ti promoted the stability of the catalyst, so as to achieve a high conversion of NO.
