A novel reactor system that permits the direct determination of deactivation kinetics for a heterogeneous catalyst

The potential use of HNO 3 -treated clinoptilolite in the preparation of Pt/CeO 2 -Clinoptilolite nanostructured catalyst used in toluene abatement from waste gas stream at low temperature

“…Nanoparticles provide more reactive and reducible sites and results to a high catalytic performance of the nanocatalyst (Abbasi et al, 2011). Generally, deep oxidation of most hydrocarbons over Pt and palladium catalysts highly depends on metal particle size (Jossens and Petersen, 1982;Labalme et al, 1996;Mare´cot et al, 1994;Papaefthimiou et al, 1998;Pliangos et al, 1997). Song et al investigated the significant effect of Pt particle size on turnover rate and activation energy on some reactions (Somorjai and Park, 2008).…”
