Featured Application: This work supplies a systematical comparison study on various typical noble metal catalysts with an exploration of the potential for CVOC destruction, which would supply an overall view of universal applicability for the practical operation of noble metals. Understanding the reaction path and mechanism of chlorinated volatile organic compound (CVOC) destruction is important for designing efficient catalysts, especially for the application of noble metal-based materials. Herein, several typical noble metals, Ru, Rh, Pt, Pd, Au, and Ir, supported on γ-Al
2 O3 catalysts were synthesized by the hydrazine hydrate reduction method for 1,2-dichloroethane (1,2-DCE) elimination. Various character measurements were conducted, and the results suggest that the high-valence state of noble metals is beneficial for the 1,2-DCE reaction as it enables the enhancement of the mobility of the surficial active oxygen species of catalysts. Among the noble metals, Ru/γ-Al2 O3 expresses superior catalytic reactivity, with a 90% pollutant conversion rate at 337 °C, and competitive CO2 selectivity, 99.15% at the temperature of total oxidation. The distribution of by-products and the degradation routes were analyzed online by GC-ECD and in situ diffuse reflectance infrared spectroscopy, which may provide helpful insight for the future application of noble metal-based catalysts for CVOC elimination in industrial fields.
