Mechanistic insight into the mutual-effect and key intermediate during methanol accelerating toluene decomposition over Co-spinel catalyst revealed by PTR-TOF-MS and DFT calculation

Tuning the Metal–Support Interaction by Modulating CeO2 Oxygen Vacancies to Enhance the Toluene Oxidation Activity of Pt/CeO2 Catalysts

“…Volatile organic compounds (VOCs), as essential components for the formation of PM 2.5 and ozone (O 3 ) pollution, not only severely contribute to environmental hazards but also seriously harm human health. − Various technologies, such as photocatalytic degradation, adsorption, biological treatment, catalytic oxidation, and photothermal catalytic can be employed to control VOC emissions. − Among these, catalytic oxidation is considered one of the most effective VOC abatement technologies due to its higher purification efficiency, lower energy consumption, and minimal secondary pollution . The critical focus of catalytic oxidation technology lies in the research and development of highly active catalysts, which are currently categorized as noble metal-supported catalysts and metal oxide catalysts.…”
