VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS, NANOSTRUCTURED MATERIALS FOR CATALYTIC REMOVAL

Abstract

Using catalytic oxidation to remove volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which pose a major danger to human health, is becoming more popular because of its favourable properties, such as cheap cost, operational safety and environmental friendliness, which make it an attractive option. There has been an explosion in research into the synthesis and use of diverse nanostructured materials over the last several decades, resulting in both huge potential and considerable challenges in the application of these materials for highly effective catalytic removal of VOCs. There are two principal kinds of VOC catalysts now in use: noble metals and metal oxides. We want to highlight the most recent research breakthroughs in nanostructured materials for catalytic degradation of VOCs in order to offer the reader with a cohesive picture of the subject. For the removal of pollutant pollutants from the surrounding environment, this review will concentrate on the synthesis, manufacturing, and processing of nanostructured noble metals, metal oxides, and basic and technological techniques in catalytic removal of volatile organic compounds.
