In this article, the underlying effect of phosphoric acid etching and additional water vapor on chlorine desorption behavior over a model catalyst La3Mn2O7 was explored. Acid treatment led to the formation of LaPO4 and enhanced the mobility of lattice oxygen of La3Mn2O7 evidenced by a range of characterization (i.e., X-ray diffraction, temperature-programmed analyses, NH3-IR, etc.). The former introduced thermally stable Bronsted acidic sites that enhanced dichloromethane (DCM) hydrolysis while the latter facilitated desorption of accumulated chlorine at elevated temperatures. The acid-modified catalyst displayed a superior catalytic activity in DCM oxidation compared to the untreated sample, which was ascribed to the abundance of proton donors and Mn(IV) species. The addition of water vapor to the reaction favored the formation and desorption of HCl and avoided surface chlorination at low temperatures. This resulted in a further reduction in reaction temperature under humid conditions (T-90 of 380 degrees C for the modified catalyst). These results provide an in-depth interpretation of chlorine desorption behavior for DCM oxidation, which should aid the future design of industrial catalysts for the durable catalytic combustion of chlorinated organics.
