Catalytic Removal of Toluene over Co3O4–CeO2 Mixed Oxide Catalysts: Comparison with Pt/Al2O3

Abstract: The catalytic oxidation of toluene, chosen as VOC probe molecule, was investigated over Co 3 O 4 , CeO 2 and over Co 3 O 4 -CeO 2 mixed oxides and compared with the catalytic behavior of a conventional Pt(1 wt%)/Al 2 O 3 catalyst. Complete toluene oxidation to carbon dioxide and water was achieved over all the investigated systems at temperatures below 500°C. The most efficient catalyst, Co 3 O 4 (30 wt%)-CeO 2 (70 wt%), showed full toluene conversion at 275°C, comparing favorably with Pt/Al 2 O 3 (100% toluen… Show more

“…However, due to the high cost of noble metals, many researchers have recently devoted strong efforts to the development of suitable catalysts containing only transition metal oxides [6][7][8][9][10]. In this domain, special attention has been focused on cobalt materials in the spinel form [10], on oxide catalysts [11,12] and on mixed oxides issued from hydrotalcite precursors [13,14]. For the generation of well-dispersed, active and very stable mixed oxides, the Layered Double Hydroxides (LDH) route shows much potential.…”

“…High lattice oxygen mobility and formation of surface anionic vacancies in such a Co 3 O 4 -CeO 2 system were also relevant to propene and toluene oxidation activity. 22,23 On these grounds, Co 3 O 4 -based catalysts are definitely good candidates for oxidation reactions; however, deactivation processes induced by high temperature, such as loss of surface area, thermal decomposition to the less active CoO and interactions of cobalt with the matrix leading to inactive phases (i.e., CoAl 2 O 4 , CoTiO 3 , CoZr 3 O 0.69 ), limit its application at high temperatures. 5,21,24,25 Therefore, deposition of Co 3 O 4 active sites over a high surface area carrier is attractive to achieve high catalytic performance and long-term stability.…”

“…One of the main problems during this process concerns the emissions of pollutants when the system has not reached its working temperature, also called cold start period. The majority of the emissions are produced after the starting of the vehicle engine when the temperature in the exhaust system is lower than 425 K. For the catalytic oxidation of carbon monoxide, the Pd or Pt-based catalysts do not bring a total conversion at this temperature [24,25]. Understanding how the catalyst works in order to improve its catalytic activity at low temperature is thus of great importance.…”
