PERFORMANCE OF CARBON NANOTUBE-BASED MONOMETALLIC Pt, Pd AND Ru CATALYSTS IN WATER PURIFICATION PROCESSES
Background Catalytic wet air oxidation (CWAO) represents a promising technique for removal of toxic and nonbiodegradable organic compounds from industrial wastewaters. Several studies regarding CWAO of various organics have been performed in the presence of activated carbon or carbon-based catalysts, such as nanotubes. The main advantages of carbon nanotubes (CNT) compared to activated carbon are the high purity of the material, high mechanical strength and the mesoporous nature, which makes them interesting to promote a variety of liquid-phase reactions. The present work aims to get insight into the application of CNT-Pt, CNT-Pd and CNT-Ru monometallic catalysts for CWAO of aqueous solutions of phenol (1.0 g/l) and thermal decarboxylation of formic acid (2.0 g/l) carried out in a continuous-flow trickle-bed reactor.
