H₂ selective catalytic reduction (H₂-SCR) has been proposed as a promising technology for controlling NO_x emission because hydrogen is clean and does not emit greenhouse gases. We demonstrate that Pt doped into a nickel ferrite spinel structure can afford a high catalytic activity of H₂-SCR. A superior NO conversion of 96% can be achieved by employing a novel NiFe_1.95Pt_0.05O₄ spinel-type catalyst at 60 °C. This novel catalyst is different from traditional H₂-SCR catalysts, which focus on the role of metallic Pt species and neglect the effect of oxidized Pt states in the reduction of NO. The obtained Raman and XPS spectra indicate that Pt in the spinel lattice has different valence states with Pt²⁺ occupying the tetrahedral sites and Pt⁴⁺ residing in the octahedral ones. These oxidation states of Pt enhance the back-donation process, and the lack of filling electrons of the 5d band causes Pt to more readily hybridize with the 5σ orbital of the NO molecule, especially for octahedral Pt⁴⁺, which enhances the NO chemisorption on the Pt sites. We also performed DFT calculations to confirm the enhancement of adsorption of NO onto Pt sites when doped into the Ni–Fe spinel structure. The prepared Pt/Ni–Fe catalysts indicate that increasing the dispersity of Pt on the surfaces of the individual Ni–Fe spinel-type catalysts can efficiently promote the H₂-SCR activity. Our demonstration provides new insight into designing advanced catalysts for H₂-SCR.
