RESUMO
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are an important source of air pollution, harmful to human health and the environment, and important precursors of secondary organic aerosols, O3 and photochemical smog. This study focused on the low-temperature catalytic oxidation and degradation of benzene, dichloroethane, methanethiol, methanol and methylamine by ozone. Benzene was used as a model compound, and a molecular sieve was selected as a catalyst carrier to prepare a series of supported active metal catalysts by impregnation. The effects of ozone on the catalytic oxidation of VOCs and catalysts' activity were studied. Taking benzene as a model compound, low-temperature ozone catalytic oxidation was conducted to explore the influence of the catalyst carrier, the active metal and the precious metal Pt on the catalytic degradation of benzene. The optimal catalyst appeared to be 0.75%Pt-10%Fe/HZSM(200). The catalytic activity and formation of the by-products methylamine, methanethiol, methanol, dichloroethane and benzene over 0.75%Pt-10%Fe/HZSM(200) were investigated. The structure, oxygen vacancy, surface properties and surface acidity of the catalysts were investigated. XRD, TEM, XPS, H2-TPR, EPR, CO2-TPD, BET, C6H6-TPD and Py-IR were combined to establish the correlation between the surface properties of the catalysts and the degradation activity.
