In recent years, layered double hydroxides (LDHs) derived metal oxides as highly efficient catalysts for selective catalytic reduction of NOx with NH3 (NH3-SCR) have attracted great attention. The high dispersibility and interchangeability of cations within the brucite-like layers make LDHs an indispensable branch of catalytic materials. With the increasingly stringent and ultra-low emission regulations, there is an urgent need for highly efficient and stable low-medium temperature denitration catalysts in markets. In this contribution, we have critically summarized the recent research progress in the LDHs derived NH3-SCR catalysts, including their ability for NOx removal, N2 selectivity, active temperature window, stability and resistance to poisoning. The advantages and defects of various types of LDHs-derived catalysts are comparatively summarized, and the corresponding modification strategies are discussed. In addition, considering the importance of the catalyst's resistance to poisoning in practical applications, we discuss the poisoning mechanism of each component in flue gases, and provide the corresponding strategies to improve the poisoning resistance of catalysts. Finally, from the perspective of practical applications and operation cost, the regeneration measures of catalysts after poisoning is also discussed. We hope that this work can give timely technical guidance and valuable insights for the applications of LDHs materials in the field of NOx control.
