Adsorptive and catalytic properties in the removal of volatile organic compounds over zeolite-based materials

Porous sorbents for the capture of radioactive iodine compounds: a review

“…The presence of pores, channels, molecule-sized cavities and chargecompensating cations inside these materials make their properties particularly interesting for various applications, such as adsorption, catalysis and cation exchange. [163][164][165][166][167][168] In the particular case of the capture of iodine species, the adsorption properties and cation exchange capacities of zeolites make them interesting and remarkable candidates for this application. In the literature, several zeolites of different structural types have been studied for the capture of iodine species, such as mordenite (MOR structural type), 29,34,74,76,77,79,80,[169][170][171][172][173][174][175][176][177][178] NaX and NaY zeolites (FAU type), 5,60,75,77,78,88,132,179 ZSM-5 (MFI type), 74,77 ferrierite (FER type) and zeolite beta (*BEA type) 74,77 (ESI, Table 3 †).…”

Removal of Toluene by Adsorption/Desorption Using Ultra-stable Y Zeolite

“…Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) usually refer to organic compounds with boiling points within the range of 50-260 °C at atmospheric pressure [1]. These compounds include aromatics, aliphatics, aldehydes, ketones, and esters.…”

The Use of Zeolites for VOCs Abatement by Combining Non-Thermal Plasma, Adsorption, and/or Catalysis: A Review

“…Weitkamp and Moshoeshoe et al [62,63] wrote interesting reviews about the basic principles of zeolite chemistry, structure, properties, and their application in catalysis. Furthermore, a series of zeolite-supported metals as highly efficient catalysts have been well developed for the catalytic combustion of VOCs by combining the selective adsorption of zeolites with catalytically active metal centers [64]. The natural zeolites are known to mankind as aluminosilicate minerals for almost 250 years and most of the natural zeolites are the result of volcanic activities [65].…”
