Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of low-temperature plasma catalyst preparation, in particular to a low-temperature plasma catalyst and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are a class of organic compounds with volatility and capable of participating in photochemical reactions. At present, the total amount of VOCs emissions in China has exceeded that of nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide, and VOCs has become the main source of air pollution. VOCs is photochemical smog, a precursor of tropospheric ozone secondary aerosol, which will cause secondary pollution, greenhouse effect and regional climate change after complex physical and chemical reactions, and volatile organic compounds are toxic and carcinogenic, which not only harm the environment but also pose a threat to human life and health. Therefore, effectively reducing the emission of VOCs is of great significance for protecting humans and the environment.
[0003] Common methods for treating VOCs mainly include absorption, biodegradation, photocatalysis and plasma technology. At present, low-temperature plasma technology is a new technology integrating physics, chemistry, biology and environmental science. The main reaction principle of this technology is that, through high voltage applied on positive and negative electrodes, the outer electrons in gas molecules can not only have non-elastic collision with VOCs molecules, but also have non-elastic collision with background gas molecules (such as nitrogen, oxygen and water vapor) under the action of the electric field formed in the electrode gap, generating active groups such as N free radicals, O free radicals and OH free radicals to continue to react with VOCs molecules, and finally mineralize VOCs into CO2 and H2O. However, when low-temperature plasma is used alone to degrade VOCs, many organic intermediate products with certain toxicity, NO x and O3 reaction by-products are generated, which can easily cause secondary pollution to the environment.
[0004] Studies have shown that the combination of catalysts and low-temperature plasma technology can effectively inhibit the generation of organic intermediate products and reaction by-products (NO x and O3, etc.), and improve the efficiency of VOCs degradation. According to the placement area of the catalyst, plasma coupling catalysis technology is divided into two types, namely, plasma built-in catalysis and plasma post-catalysis. Plasma built-in catalysis refers to that the catalyst is located in the discharge area of the plasma, which can effectively inhibit the generation of organic intermediate products by increasing the local electric field strength and prolonging the reaction time of VOCs molecules and active particles, and improve the mineralization efficiency of VOCs, but the emission of by-products NO x and O3 is large; plasma post-catalysis refers to that the catalyst is located outside the plasma electric field area, which can effectively inhibit the generation of NO xThe decomposition can be realized by O3, and the organic intermediate products generated by the degradation of VOCs in the plasma area can be further decomposed to improve the treatment effect of VOCs. However, the degradation efficiency of VOCs needs to be further improved because the active particles generated in the plasma area cannot be used for degradation. Therefore, developing an efficient low-temperature plasma coupled catalyst to effectively control the by-products and VOCs is the key to the current low-temperature plasma coupled catalytic treatment of VOCs.
