Catalytic Oxidation of Benzene with Ozone Over Mn/KIT-6
Benzene is one of the target compounds to be removed from air owing to its carcinogenicity. In this study, benzene oxidation with ozone over a MnO
x
/KIT-6 catalyst was carried out for the first time. MnO
x
/KIT-6 was synthesized using two different Mn
precursors: Mn acetate and Mn nitrate. The characteristics of the synthesized catalysts were examined by X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, temperature-programmed reduction, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area, and N2 adsorption–desorption.
The catalytic activity was found to be dependent on the amount of ozone consumed and the dispersion and reducibility of MnO
x
on the catalyst surface.
