The heterogeneous reactions of SO2 and NH3 on typical mineral oxides were investigated using in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS). A new sulfate formation pathway was proposed where NH3 accelerated the formation of sulfate species. The results revealed that surface hydroxyls and oxygen played principal roles in the conversion of SO2 to sulfate. It was proposed that NH3 adsorbed onto Lewis acid sites, and hydroxyls and water molecules adsorbed on the surfaces of mineral dust. The enhancement of surface Lewis basicity by NH3 induced more SO2 molecules to adsorb on the surface, which were further oxidized to sulfate by interacting with surface hydroxyls and oxygen atoms. The formation of sulfate, in turn, contributed to the adsorption of NH3, mainly as NH4+ due to enhanced Brønsted acid sites. The IC results showed that the synergistic effect between SO2 and NH3 was more significant on acidic oxides like γ-Al2O3 and α-Fe2O3 compared to basic oxides like MgO.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
