Abstract: | "Ti-modified Co(3)O(4) catalysts with various Co/Ti ratios were synthesized using the co-precipitation method and were used in catalytic oxidation of dibromomethane (CH(2)Br(2)), which was selected as the model molecule for brominated volatile organic compounds (BVOCs). Addition of Ti distorted the crystal structure and led to the formation of a Co-O-Ti solid solution. Co(4)Ti(1) (Co/Ti molar ratio was 4) achieved higher catalytic activity with a T(90) (the temperature needed for 90% conversion) of approximately 245 degrees C for CH(2)Br(2) oxidation and higher selectivity to CO(2) at a low temperature than the other investigated catalysts. In addition, Co(4)Ti(1) was stable for at least 30h at 500ppm CH(2)Br(2), 0 or 2vol% H(2)O, 0 or 500ppm p-xylene (PX), and 10% O(2) at a gas hourly space velocity of 60,000h(-1). The final products were CO(x), Br(2), and HBr, without the formation of other Br-containing organic byproducts. The high catalytic activity was attributed to the high Co(3+)/Co(2+) ratio and high surface acidity. Additionally, the synergistic effect of Co and Ti made it superior for CH(2)Br(2) oxidation. Furthermore, based on the analysis of products and in situ DRIFTs studies, a receivable reaction mechanism for CH(2)Br(2) oxidation over Ti-modified Co(3)O(4) catalysts was proposed" |
