“…In addition, in comparison with thermal methods, catalytic oxidation needs lower temperature leading to lower NO X emission (Gluhoi and Nieuwenhuys, 2007). During recent years, catalytic oxidation of VOCs has been widely studied (Huang et al, 2008;Kovanda and Jira´tova´, 2011;Li et al, 2013a;Nogueira et al, 2011;Tabakova et al, 2013). According to the literature, supported noble metal catalysts have been known as highly active catalysts for VOC removal (Oliveira et al, 2008;Wang et al, 2011), CO oxidation (Estifaee et al, 2014;Tomita et al, 2012) and methanol oxidation (Arnby et al, 2004;Malakhova et al, 2000).…”
