Catalysts supported by alumina (Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>), silica (SiO<sub>2</sub>), and a composite silica-alumina (ASA) have been simultaneously prepared using a straightforward isopyknic co-impregnation method in order to eliminate the influence of preparation conditions.

Finally, the Fminsearch algorithm has been used to optimize the result of 531 data points including 451 points for pure chlorofluorocarbons (167 points for saturated liquid chlorofluorocarbons, 284 points for unsaturated gaseous chlorofluorocarbons (R13, R32) and 80 points for binary mixtures.
