A novel tungsten-doped CeO₂ catalyst was fabricated via the sweet potato starch bio-template spread self-combustion (SSC) method to secure a high NH₃-SCR activity. The study focuses on the influence of ignition temperature on the physical structure and redox properties of the synthesized catalyst and the catalytic performance of NOₓ reduction with NH₃. These were quantitatively examined by conducting TG-DSC measurements of the starch gel, XRD analysis for the crystallites, SEM and TEM assessments for the morphology of the catalyst, XPS and H₂-TPR measurements for the distribution of cerium and tungsten, and NH₃-TPD assessments for the acidity of the catalyst. It is found that the ignition temperature shows an important role in the interaction of cerium and tungsten species, and the optimal ignition temperature is 500 °C. The increase of ignition temperature from 150 °C is beneficial to the interactions of species in the catalyst, depresses the formation of WO₃, and refines the cubic CeO₂ crystallite. The sample ignited at 500 °C shows the biggest BET surface area, the highest surface concentration of Ce species and molar ratio of Ce³⁺/(Ce³⁺+Ce⁴⁺), and the most abundant surface Brønsted acid sites, which are the possible reasons for the superiority of the NH₃-SCR activity. With a high GHSV of 200,000 mL (g h)⁻¹ and the optimal ignition temperature, Ce₄W₂Oz-500 can achieve a steadily high NOₓ reduction of 80% or more at a lowered reduction temperature in the range of 250~500 °C.
