Description
Summary:[Display omitted] V/TiO2–SiO2–MoO3 (TSM) catalysts exhibit enhanced redox capabilities, but the role of each species in the mixed oxide support is not well understood. Herein, the physicochemical characteristics of molybdenum oxide in TSM were investigated using X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy, and the performance of V/TSM catalysts for the oxidative decomposition of o-chlorotoluene was examined. The V/TSM catalysts exhibited superior performances in this decomposition reaction at low temperatures. The molybdenum species were highly dispersed as Mo6+, replacing Ti4+ in the anatase TiO2 framework and forming a solid solution. The redox capability of the vanadium species in the catalyst was enhanced by electron transfer from the TSM support to vanadium, likely due to the coexistence of Mo6+ and Ti4+ in the TSM solid solution, which has a unique structure. These results are expected to contribute to enhancing the abatement of dioxins at low temperatures.
