Pillared Clay-Supported Noble Metal and Metal Oxide Catalysts for Complete Oxidation of VOCs

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Pillared Clays and Related Catalysts

Abstract

Pillared clays (PILCs) have porous structure, high surface area, special surface acidity, and thermal stability. Due to their properties, PILCs are very suitable to be used as support for active catalytic phases in the preparation of supported catalysts, and the resulting solids can be applied in several reactions, particularly in environmental-friendly reactions. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) have contributed significantly to air pollution. The deep catalytic oxidation of these pollutants has been identified as one of the most efficient ways to destroy VOCs. This review examines recent developments in the complete oxidation of VOCs over PILC-supported noble metal and metal oxide catalysts.
