Provided is an ambient temperature NOx adsorbent. The ambient temperature NOx adsorbent comprises a support and a metal supported on the support. The support comprises at least one metal oxide selected from oxides of Co, Fe, Cu, Ce, Mn, and a combination thereof. The supported metal comprises at least one metal selected from Cu, Co, Ag, Pd, and a combination thereof. The metal oxide is easily changed the oxidation number and has oxygen absorptive/emissive properties. The supported metal has an oxidative activity and is highly adsorptive to NO. Oxygen supplied from the metal oxide converts the supported metal to a peroxidized form of the supported metal. Hence, NO is readily adsorbed to the supported metal at ambient temperature around room temperature. The adsorbed NO is easily oxidized to NO2 by oxygen supplied from the metal oxide or the supported metal in a peroxidized state in the absence of oxygen in an ambient atmosphere. The NO2 is then efficiently adsorbed to the metal oxide. That is, the ambient temperature NOx adsorbent can adsorb a sufficient amount of NOx even at ambient temperature around room temperature. |
