Carbon Supported Cu and TiO2 Catalysts Applied for Ozone Decomposition
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this article a comparison was made between Cu and TiO2 supported catalysts on activated carbon for ozone decomposition reaction. The activated carbon support in the case of TiO2/AC sample was prepared by physicochemical pyrolysis and for Cu/AC samples the supports are chemically modified carbons. The prepared catalysts were synthesized by impregnation method. The samples were annealed in two different regimesin air and under vacuum. To examine adsorption efficiency of the samples BET method was used. All investigated catalysts supported on chemically modified carbons have higher specific surface area compared to the specific surface area of TiO2 supported catalysts, varying in the range 590÷620 m/g. The method of synthesis of the precursors had influenced catalytic activity. Keywords—Activated carbon, adsorption, copper, ozone decomposition, TiO2.

متن کاملPt/MOx/SiO2, Pt/MOx/TiO2, and Pt/MOx/Al2O3 Catalysts for
Conventional supported Pt catalysts have often been prepared by loading Pt onto commercial supports, such as SiO2, TiO2, Al2O3, and carbon. These catalysts usually have simple metal-support (i.e., Pt-SiO2) interfaces. To tune the catalytic performance of supported Pt catalysts, it is desirable to modify the metal-support interfaces by incorporating an oxide additive into the catalyst formula. H...

Carbon-coated TiO2 catalysts were found to have high photocatalytic activity for photodecomposition of methylene blue in water, higher than TiO2 without carbon coating [1]. However, these catalysts used for phenol decomposition showed lower activity than TiO2 without carbon coating. Also lower adsorption capacity of phenol on carbon-coated TiO2 catalysts was noted by comparison with adsorption ...
