Resumen:
This work analyzes the application of a ceramic paper to the diesel soot combustion reaction in air. The catalytic paper is made of ceramic fibers, cerium oxide and potassium nitrate. The synthesis of this material is easy and fast, and provides a high-temperature resistant paper that can be readily adapted to different conformations and geometries. The presence of potassium and cerium as active ingredients confers high catalytic activity for the reaction studied under loose contact, showing a maximum combustion rate at 395°C.
