Abstract
The challenges posed by volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions in iron ore sintering flue gas are significant. La-based perovskite catalysts offer a promising solution for efficiently degrading VOCs. In this study, a series of LaBO3 (B = Cu, Fe, Cr, Mn, Co) perovskite catalysts were synthesized using the sol-gel method. The influence of various B-site elements on the catalyst’s structure and surface chemical properties was thoroughly examined. Simulations were conducted to assess the VOC reduction capabilities of these catalysts under conditions mimicking sintering flue gas composition. It was found that the crystallite size of the perovskite catalyst decreases as the ionic radius of the B-site elements increases, while the specific surface area, total pore volume, and average pore size increase correspondingly. Notably, LaCoO3 and LaMnO3 demonstrated exceptional activity, attributed primarily to their elevated surface oxygen concentration and oxygen migration capability, positioning them as highly promising materials for further development. Furthermore, a proposed mechanism elucidates the La-based perovskite catalytic reduction of toluene, wherein lattice oxygen and adsorbed oxygen undergo mutual conversion during the oxidation process. This mechanism aligns with the L-H and M-v-K models, providing a comprehensive understanding of the catalytic process.
