Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) harm the environment and human health and have been of wide concern and purified efficiently by catalytic oxidation. Spinel oxides, mainly composed of transition metal elements with low price and extensive sources, have been widely investigated as efficient and stable catalysts for VOCs oxidation due to their adjustable element composition, flexible structure, and high thermal/chemical stability. However, it is necessary to dissect the design of the spinel in a targeted way to satisfy the removal of different types of VOCs. This article systematically summarizes the recent advances regarding the application of spinel oxides for VOCs catalytic oxidation. Specifically, the design strategies of spinel oxides were first introduced to clarify their effect on the structure and properties of the catalyst. Then the reaction mechanism and degradation pathway of different kinds of VOCs on the spinel oxides were in detail summarized, and the characteristic requirements of the spinel oxides for various VOCs purification were analyzed. Furthermore, the practice applications were also discussed. Finally, the prospects were proposed to guide the rational design of spinel-based catalysts for VOCs purification and intensify the understanding of reaction mechanisms.
To target both present users and future potential customers, which are often ignored by most researches, very early in the collaborative conceptual design stage, a multi-agent framework is presented to integrate the distributed design activities. By introducing a cost-effective and timely modular design system and modeling its ‘users’, a typical intelligent and autonomous agent is constructed and the principle of cooperation among multiple agents is discussed for maximizing today’s and tomorrow’s customer requirements. The proposed system is successfully demonstrated on the hydraulic press products design.
Hydrothermal treatment surprisingly enhanced the catalytic activity of Pt/ZSM-5 in benzene oxidation and the treated catalyst exhibited outstanding stability.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
