Understanding the influence of sulfates over catalysts for selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH₃ (NH₃-SCR) is crucial due to the universal presence of SO₂ in exhaust gas. Depending on the degree of sulfation, there mainly exist surface and bulk sulfates and NH₃-SCR activity is generally considered to suffer more from bulk sulfates. Herein, the unique function of bulk sulfates over CeO₂ in promoting high-temperature SCR reaction is revealed. Notably, compared with CeO₂ dominated with surface sulfates (S-CeO₂–4h) and commercial V₂O₅-WO₃/TiO₂, CeO₂ with bulk sulfates (S-CeO₂–72h) exhibits admirable NO conversion at the temperature range of 400–550 ℃. Bulk sulfates provide more Brønsted acid sites with stronger strength for NH₃ adsorption. Moreover, the oxidation ability of CeO₂ is significantly inhibited due to electron-withdrawing effect from bulk sulfates, which alleviates NH₃ oxidation at high temperatures. More NH₃ adsorption with high stability and limited NH₃ oxidation capacity ensure the excellent catalytic performance for S-CeO₂–72h in high-temperature denitration. This work provides new insight of bulk sulfates in promoting SCR activity and open a new avenue to design deNO_x catalysts employed at high temperatures.
