Title: Effect of internal noise on the oscillation of N{sub 2}O decomposition over Cu-ZSM-5 zeolites using a stochastic description

Abstract

When considering stochastic oscillations of heterogeneous catalyst systems, most researches have focused on the surface of a metal or its oxide catalysts, but there have been few studies on porous catalysts. In this work, the effects of internal noise on oscillations of N{sub 2}O decomposition over Cu-ZSM-5 zeolites are investigated, using the chemical Langevin equation and a mesoscopic stochastic model. Considering that Cu-ZSM-5 particles are finely divided particles, the number of Cu ions (N{sub s}) is proportional to the particle size at a certain Cu/Al, and the internal noise is inversely proportional to N{sub s}. Stochastic oscillations can be observed outside the deterministic oscillatory region. Furthermore, the performance of the oscillation characterized by the signal-to-noise ratio has a maximum within the optimal size range of 4–8 nm. This suggests that a nanometer-sized zeolite may be best for oscillations.
