Abstract

The catalytic combustion of toluene over Pd-Cu/USY zeolite has been examined by using FT-IR spectroscopy in a closed system under dry and humid conditions. The catalytic combustion of toluene (700 ppmv) in the temperature range of $80-220^{\circ}C$ has been investigated by using a fixed bed reactor. The Pd-Cu/USY catalyst showed the highest catalytic performance with respects to the PdO-CuO/USY and Pd/USY. Comparing to $PdO/Al_2O_3$ catalysts, the slight improvement in conversion was observed over PdO/USY catalysts under humid condition since USY zeolite is hydrophobic substrate and water give an additional oxygen source to zeolite surface like oxygen. The reduced catalysts showed more enhanced catalytic activity due to the reduced activation energy of combustion of toluene than oxidized catalysts such as PdO/USY and PdO-CuO/USY.

USY 제올라이트에 이원계의 Pd-Cu 복합촉매를 담지하여 FT-IR 분석기로 밀폐계에서 촉매의 표면반응특성을 조사하였다. 700 ppm의 톨루엔 연소반응은 고정반응기를 이용하여 $80{\sim}220^{\circ}C$에서 수행하였으며 톨루엔을 GC로 분석하였다. 촉매활성은 Pd-Cu/USY > Pd/USY > PdO-CuO/USY > PdO/USY > $PdO/Al_2O_3$의 순서임을 알 수 있었다. 저온연소반응에서 수분이 촉매의 활성에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였고 공기의 공급변화를 통하여 촉매표면에 있는 결정격자의 산소가 반응에 참여 여부를 조사하였다. 환원된 촉매들은 톨루엔의 연소활성에너지로 인해 산화된 촉매에 비해 활성이 높았다.
