Recent advances in VOCs and CO removal via photothermal synergistic catalysis

Currently, air pollution is being exacerbated by rapid social, economic, and industrial development. Major pollutants include volatile organic compounds (VOCs) CO. Photocatalytic thermocatalytic technology can be used to convert VOCs CO into harmless gases effectively. Recently, photothermal synergistic catalysis has aroused much attention because of its higher performance than those individual photocatalytic processes. There have been many reviews on separate photocatalysts thermocatalysts for the treatment CO, but few focused catalysis. In this minireview, we concentrate recent progress efficient removal The typical (such as benzene, toluene, ethanol, formaldehyde, acetone, propylene, propane) are summarized analyzed. Furthermore, discuss use conventional reactor technology, such fixed-bed quartz reactors, removal. We also mechanism catalytic Finally, present perspectives
