Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of gas purification and treatment in the field of energy and environment, and in particular relates to a catalyst suitable for ozone decomposition and removal applications under high humidity and high flux conditions and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Ozone in the atmosphere primarily exists in the stratosphere, 5 to 25 km above the ground. Civil aircraft typically fly at altitudes between 7 and 12.5 km, where ozone concentrations range from approximately 0.4 to 0.8 ppm. It's important to note that the aircraft's environmental control system introduces fresh air through the compressor, half of which is then recycled internally. Therefore, at certain cruising altitudes, ozone concentrations inside the aircraft can rise to around 1 to 2 ppm, posing a serious health risk to crew and passengers. Therefore, ozone converters within the environmental control system play a crucial role.

[0003] The core of an ozone converter is the ozone decomposition catalyst installed within it. This catalyst is supported by a monolithic metal honeycomb wall, which decomposes and removes ozone. Due to the unique operating environment characterized by high gas flux and high humidity, ozone converters place stringent demands on the catalyst within them. In addition to ensuring excellent ozone decomposition performance, the ozone decomposition catalyst supported on the metal substrate must also possess excellent mechanical stability and robustness. Conventional ozone decomposition catalysts are typically calcined at relatively low temperatures, below 350°C, to ensure optimal ozone decomposition performance. However, the calcination temperature for a firmly supported catalyst on a metal substrate is typically above 500°C. Such high temperatures can damage the performance of conventional ozone decomposition catalysts. Furthermore, a technical challenge in decomposing and removing ozone in high-humidity air is the catalyst's excellent water resistance. Water forms a film on the catalyst surface, inhibiting ozone adsorption at the active sites and hindering ozone decomposition and removal. Summary of the Invention
