Plasma catalysis technology has been proven effective in decomposing volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and the impact of different supports on VOCs oxidation processes during plasma catalysis is crucial. In this study, four supports loaded with transition metal oxides were used to decompose toluene at room temperature, with 1 wt%Mn/gamma-Al2O3 showing the highest efficiency. The reaction mechanism of toluene decomposition on different catalysts was proposed, with 1 wt%Mn/gamma-Al2O3 Able to catalyze toluene further into carbonate and bicarbonate.
Plasma catalysis technology has been demonstrated to be effective for the decomposition of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). It is highly desired to explore the effect of supports on VOCs oxidation processes during plasma catalysis. In this work, four supports of SiO2, ZSM-5-300, ZSM-5-38 and gamma-Al2O3 loading with transition metal oxides were used to decompose toluene at room temperature. It was found that toluene decomposition with 1 wt%Mn/gamma-Al2O3 was highest, which was strongly proportional to the ozone decomposition ability of the catalyst. The plasma catalytic decomposition of toluene over 1 wt% MnO2 on different supports were characterized using in situ plasma diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectrometer. The results showed that 1 wt%Mn/gamma-Al2O3 could further catalyze toluene to carbonate and bicarbonate via the breakage of C-C bonds from benzoic acid, while that was difficult for 1 wt% Mn/SiO2, 1 wt%Mn/ZSM-5-300 and 1 wt%Mn/ZSM-5-38. The reaction mechanism of toluene decomposition on different catalysts were proposed.
