Abstract
- Cyclohexane, a typical volatile organic compound (VOC), poses high risks to the environment and humans. Herein, synthesized PdAg/Fe <subscript>2</subscript> O <subscript>3</subscript> catalysts exhibited exceptional catalytic performance for cyclohexane combustion at lower temperatures (50% mineralization temperature ( T <subscript>50</subscript> ) of 199 °C, 90% mineralization temperature ( T <subscript>90</subscript> ) of 315 °C) than Pd/Fe <subscript>2</subscript> O <subscript>3</subscript> ( T <subscript>50</subscript> of 262 °C, T <subscript>90</subscript> of 335 °C) and Fe <subscript>2</subscript> O <subscript>3</subscript> ( T <subscript>50</subscript> of 305 °C, T <subscript>90</subscript> of 360 °C). In addition, PdAg/Fe <subscript>2</subscript> O <subscript>3</subscript> displayed enhanced stability by alloying Ag with Pd. The redox and acidity of the PdAg/Fe <subscript>2</subscript> O <subscript>3</subscript> were studied by XPS, H <subscript>2</subscript> -TPR, and NH <subscript>3</subscript> -TPD. In situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy and proton-transfer-reaction time-of-flight mass spectrometry were applied to identify the intermediates formed on the catalyst surface and in the tail gas during oxidation, respectively. Results suggested that loading PdAg onto Fe <subscript>2</subscript> O <subscript>3</subscript> significantly enhanced the adsorption and activation of oxygen and cyclohexane, oxidative dehydrogenation of cyclohexane to benzene, and catalytic cracking of cyclohexane to olefins at low temperatures. This in-depth study will benefit the design and application of efficient catalysts for the effective combustion of VOCs at low temperatures.
