Microwave selective effect: a new approach towards oxygen inhibition removal for highly-effective NO decomposition by microwave catalysis over BaMnxMg1−xO3 mixed oxides at low temperature under excess oxygen

Abstract
A significant microwave selective effect on oxygen inhibition removal was found for NO decomposition through microwave catalysis over BaMnxMg1−xO3 catalysts. Especially, the NO conversion and N2 selectivity were up to 99.8% and 99.9%, respectively for the BaMn0.9Mg0.1O3 catalyst even with the coexistence of 10% oxygen and low temperature of 250 °C.
