Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of air purification, specifically to a catalyst for removing volatile impurities, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] VOCs include several major categories such as non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHCs), oxygenated organic compounds, halogenated hydrocarbons, nitrogen-containing organic compounds, and sulfur-containing organic compounds. Most VOCs have an unpleasant odor and are toxic, irritating, teratogenic, and carcinogenic. Benzene, toluene, and formaldehyde, in particular, can cause significant harm to human health. Formaldehyde is the most prevalent VOC, ranking second on my country's list of controlled toxic chemicals. Its sources are widespread, including not only wood materials, flooring materials, and paints used in decoration, but also often overlooked cosmetics, cleaning agents, incompletely burned tobacco leaves, and textile fibers. Formaldehyde poses significant health risks. Acute poisoning can cause symptoms such as burning throat, nausea, fatigue, difficulty breathing, and pulmonary edema. Chronic poisoning can lead to symptoms like itchy skin, cough, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. Long-term exposure to low doses of formaldehyde can result in weakened immune function, neurasthenia leading to memory loss, chronic respiratory diseases, and in severe cases, blood disorders, including leukemia. Statistics show that within 1-6 months after renovation, formaldehyde levels in most homes exceed the standard by as much as 80%; even 3 years after renovation, some homes still have formaldehyde levels exceeding the standard by more than 50%. Therefore, the dangers of formaldehyde cannot be ignored, and its control has become a major concern. How to quickly and effectively reduce the harm of formaldehyde to the human body has become an urgent problem to be solved. CN105964289A provides a catalyst for formaldehyde removal at room temperature and its preparation method, which loads Ag-Pt on a tetrabutyl titanate modified support to achieve formaldehyde removal at room temperature; however, the catalyst provided by this method is less economical due to the use of precious metals and does not have the basis for large-scale commercial application.

[0003] CN107983320A provides a method for preparing and applying a dual-functional thin film for formaldehyde removal. It describes the preparation of a thin film using a rare earth element nitrate-modified activated carbon carrier loaded with manganese and an electrostatic filament solution. This thin film simultaneously possesses adsorption and catalytic oxidation functions, thus achieving the effect of formaldehyde removal.

[0004] CN110624403A provides a filter screen for removing formaldehyde and odors. A manganese catalyst is obtained by hydrothermal synthesis of a solution containing manganese, iron and oxalate. The catalyst is then dissolved in a silica sol gel, sprayed onto the filter screen, and dried to achieve the function of removing formaldehyde at room temperature.

[0005] However, the room-temperature formaldehyde removal catalysts provided by the above patents are not suitable for large-scale use due to their poor economic efficiency, complex preparation methods, and poor operability. In the field of residential room-temperature formaldehyde removal, the following basic characteristics are required: firstly, strong formaldehyde removal capability; and secondly, air quality standards requiring that the formaldehyde content in the home environment not exceed 0.1 mg / m³. 3 First, due to the limitations of room temperature formaldehyde removal catalysts, they must have extremely high reactivity to meet the requirements. Second, the catalyst strength must be high, as room temperature formaldehyde removal agents need to be used in adsorption and purification devices in large places such as buildings, office buildings, hospitals, and shopping malls, where the space velocity is high, and the catalyst strength must be able to meet the impact strength requirements under high space velocity. Third, the lifespan must be long, because due to the mechanism, the formaldehyde removal efficiency of formaldehyde removal agents often decreases as the reaction proceeds, and may even become completely ineffective. Therefore, room temperature formaldehyde removal agents must have the ability to be regenerated at room temperature to meet the requirements of long-term use.

[0006] Therefore, in view of the shortcomings of existing technologies, there is an urgent need to provide a catalyst and purification material that can remove volatile impurities such as formaldehyde and toluene from gases, and that has high removal efficiency, high intensity and stable effect.
