Purification Mechanism Analysis and performance Characterization of Mn-zeolite Catalyst

Abstract In this study, the clinoptilolite is taken as the matrix, manganese nitrate as a modifier; through a medium temperature calcination pore making technique. Mostly, the micro pores in the matrix have been enlarged through the means of dipping and high temperature calcination modification. A small amount of active catalytic components are exchanged stably between the pores and surface. The mechanism of manufacturing new catalyst is analyzed using test methods of TEM, SEM, EDS, XRD and BET. These test methods testify the existence of active catalytic components of manganese in the Mn-Zeolite, while researching a new type of Mn-zeolite catalyst heterogeneous catalytic mechanism of Fenton and ozone oxidation process. The results show that added Mn-zeolite could improve the oxidation rate from 51% to 100%. Addition of free radical inhibitor, t-butanol, significantly inhibited the catalytic reaction of Fenton and ozone oxidation. This indicated that the mechanism of the reaction of Fenton and ozonation followed the hydroxyl radical.
