Abstract
Toluene is a common and significant volatile organic compound (VOC). Although it finds extensive application in various industrial processes (chemical manufacturing, paint and adhesive production, and as a solvent), it creates a huge environmental impact when emitted freely into the atmosphere. Two solutions were found to mitigate the emission of this pollutant: the total oxidation to CO2 and H2O and the selective oxidation into benzaldehyde. This review discusses the two main alternatives for tackling this problem: converting the toluene into carbon dioxide by total oxidation or into benzaldehyde by selective oxidation. It presents new catalytic advances, new trends, and the advantages and disadvantages of both methods.

A facile method for preparing the CeMnO 3 catalyst with high activity and stability of toluene oxidation: The critical role of small crystal size and Mn 3+-O v-Ce 4+ sites. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 470:134114.

Abstract
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) cause severe environmental pollution and are potentially toxic to humans who have no defense against exposure. Catalytic oxidation of these compounds has thus become an interesting research topic. In this study, microcrystalline CeMnO3 catalysts were prepared by a precipitant-concentration-induced strategy and evaluated for the catalytic oxidation of toluene/benzene. The effect of crystal size on catalytic performance was confirmed by XRD, TEM, N2 adsorption-desorption, XPS, Raman, H2-TPR, and TPSR. The CeMnO3 catalyst with more Mn3+-Ov-Ce4+ active sites exhibited enhanced VOCs catalytic oxidation performance, lowest active energy, and highest turnover frequency, which was attributed to its larger surface area, lower crystal size, higher low-temperature reducibility, and presence of more oxygen defects. In-situ FTIR results suggested more oxygen vacancies can profoundly promote the conversion of benzoate to maleate species, the rate-determining step of toluene oxidation. The work provides a convenient and efficient strategy to prepare single-metal or multi-metal oxide catalysts with smaller crystal sizes for VOC oxidation or other oxidation reactions.

Abstract
More and more attention has been paid to condensable particulate matter (CPM) since its emissions have surpassed that of filterable particulate matter (FPM) with the large-scale application of ultralow-emission reform. CPM is a gaseous material in the flue stack but instantly turns into particles after leaving the stack. It is composed of inorganic and organic components. Organic components are an important part of CPM, and they are an irritant, teratogenic, and carcinogenic, which triggers photochemical smog, urban haze, and acid deposition. CPM organic components can aggravate air pollution and climate change; therefore, consideration should be given to them. Based on existing methods for removing atmospheric organic pollutants and combined with the characteristics of CPM organic components, we provide a critical overview from the aspects of (i) fundamental cognition of CPM, (ii) common methods to control CPM organic components, and (iii) catalytic oxidation of CPM organic components. As one of the most encouraging methods, catalytic oxidation is discussed in detail, especially in combination with selective catalytic reduction (SCR) technology, to meet the growing demands for multipollutant control (MPC). We believe that this review is inspiring for a fuller understanding and deeper exploration of promising approaches to control CPM organic components.

Abstract
Cigarette smoke contains many chemicals that are harmful to both smokers and non-smokers. Breathing just a little cigarette smoke can be harmful. There are >7000 chemicals in cigarette smoke, at least 250 are known to be harmful and many of them can cause cancer. Currently, many studies reported the types of harmful organic compounds in cigarette smoke; instead, there are almost no works that describe the presence of inorganic compounds. In this work, a cost-effective self-made passive sampler (SMPS) was tested as a tool to collect different types of particulate matter (PM) from cigarette smoke containing metals as hazardous compounds (HCs). To determine the nature of the metals, nonmetals and metalloids as HCs, a direct qualitative analysis of the particulate matter (PM) was conducted without developing any special sample preparation procedure. For that, non-invasive elemental (Scanning Electron Microscope coupled to Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectrometry) and molecular (Raman microscopy) micro-spectroscopic techniques were used. Thanks to this methodology, it was possible to determine in deposited PM, the presence of metals such as Fe, Cr, Ni, Ti, Co, Sn, Zn, Ba, Al, Cu, Zr, Ce, Bi, etc. most of them as oxides but also embedded in different clusters with sulfates, aluminosilicates, even phosphates.

Abstract
Adjusting the electronic state of noble metal catalysts on a nanoscale is crucial for optimizing the performance of nanocatalysts in many important environmental catalytic reactions, particularly in volatile organic compound (VOC) combustion. This study reports a novel strategy for optimizing Pt catalysts by modifying their electronic structure to enhance the electron density of Pt. The research illustrates the optimal 0.2Pt-0.3W/Fe2O3 heterostructure with atomic-thick WO3 layers as a bulking block to electronically modify supported Pt nanoparticles. Methods such as electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and in situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy confirm Pt's electron-enriched state resulting from electron transfer from atomic-thick WO3. Testing for benzene oxidation revealed enhanced low-temperature activity with moderate tungsten incorporation. Kinetic and mechanistic analyses provide insights into how the enriched electron density benefits the activation of oxygen and the adsorption of benzene on Pt sites, thereby facilitating the oxidation reaction. This pioneering work on modifying the electronic structure of supported Pt nanocatalysts establishes an innovative catalyst design approach. The electronic structure-performance-dependent relationships presented in this study assist in the rational design of efficient VOC abatement catalysts, contributing to clean energy and environmental solutions.

Abstract
Catalytic oxidation, an end-of-pipe treatment technology for effectively purifying volatile organic compounds (VOCs), has received widespread attention. The crux of catalytic oxidation lies in the development of efficient catalysts, with their optimization necessitating a comprehensive analysis of the catalytic reaction mechanism. Two-dimensional (2D) ultra-thin nanomaterials offer significant advantages in exploring the catalytic oxidation mechanism of VOCs due to their unique structure and properties. This review classifies strategies for regulating catalytic properties and typical applications of 2D materials in VOCs catalytic oxidation, in addition to their characteristics and typical characterization techniques. Furthermore, the possible reaction mechanism of 2D Co-based and Mn-based oxides in the catalytic oxidation of VOCs is analyzed, with a special focus on the synergistic effect between oxygen and metal vacancies. The objective of this review is to provide valuable references for scholars in the field.

Abstract
The serious harm of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to the ecological environment and human health has attracted widespread attention worldwide. With economic growth and accelerated industrialization, the anthropogenic emissions of VOCs have continued to increase. The most crucial aspect is to choose the appropriate adsorbent, which is very important for the VOCs removal. The search for environmentally friendly VOCs treatment technologies is urgent. The adsorption method is one of the most promising VOCs emission reduction technologies with the advantages of high cost-effectiveness, simple operation, and low energy consumption. One of the most critical aspects is the selection of the appropriate adsorbent, which is very important for the removal of VOCs. This work provides an overview of the sources and hazards of VOCs, focusing on recent research advances in VOCs adsorption materials and the key factors controlling the VOCs adsorption process. A summary of the key challenges and opportunities for each adsorbent is also provided. The adsorption capacity for VOCs is enhanced by an abundant specific surface area; the most efficient adsorption process is achieved when the pore size is slightly larger than the molecular diameter of VOCs; the increase in the number of chemical functional groups contributes to the increase in adsorption capacity. In addition, methods of activation and surface modification to improve the adsorption capacity for VOCs are discussed to guide the design of more advanced adsorbents.

Abstract
In this work, Ce was used as the A-site element and three-dimensional ordered macroporous (3DOM) materials as the template to obtain 3DOM CeCo0.7Mn0.3O3 catalyst via excessive impregnation method. The catalyst was subjected to acid/alkali treatment with dilute nitric acid and sodium hydroxide solutions. The results revealed that the catalysts subjected to acid/alkali treatment exhibited better structural and catalytic activity characteristics than the bulk catalyst. Specifically, the specific surface area of the catalyst treated with acid increased from 34.86 to 60.67 m2·g-1, and the relative contents of Oads and Mn4+ species increased. Moreover, the T90% further decreased to 174 °C. As for the catalyst treated with alkali, it exhibited a rougher surface and a wider pore size distribution, producing more lattice defects which were favorable for reaction progress. The T90% was 183 °C, indicating that acid/alkali treatment both had a positive effect on the catalytic oxidation of toluene.

Abstract
Perovskite membranes have gained considerable attention in gas separation and production due to their unique properties such as high selectivity and permeability towards various gases. These membranes are composed of perovskite oxides, which have a crystalline structure that can be tailored to enhance gas separation performance. In oxygen enrichment, perovskite membranes are employed to separate oxygen from air, which is then utilized in a variety of applications such as combustion and medical devices. Moreover, perovskite membranes are investigated for carbon capture applications to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Further, perovskite membranes are employed in hydrogen production, where they aid in the separation of hydrogen from other gases such as methane and carbon dioxide. This process is essential in the production of clean hydrogen fuel for various applications such as fuel cells and transportation. This paper provides a review on the utilization and role of perovskite membranes in various gas applications, including oxygen enrichment, carbon capture, and hydrogen production.

Abstract
La1-xCoO3-δ catalysts with different non-stoichiometry of lanthanum ions were synthesized by using the sol-gel method, and their catalytic performance in toluene combustion was investigated. The results showed that the catalytic activity and stability of A-site nonstoichiometric La1-xCoO3-δ were improved to a certain extent compared with pure LaCoO3 perovskite. Among them, the La0.9CoO3-δ catalyst gave the best catalytic performance for toluene oxidation. It achieved 90% toluene conversion at 205°C under the conditions of a WHSV (weight hourly space velocity) of 22,500 mL/(g·hr) and a 500 ppmV-toluene concentration. Various characterization techniques were used to investigate the relationship between the structure of these catalysts and their catalytic performance. It was found that the non-stoichiometric modification of the lanthanum ion at position A in LaCoO3 changed the surface element state of the catalyst and increased the oxygen vacancy content, thus, combined with improved reducibility, improving toluene degradation on the catalyst.

Abstract
As an important component of air pollution, the efficient removal of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is one of the most important challenges in the world. VOCs are harmful to the environment and human health. This review systematically introduced the main VOC control technologies and research hotspots in recent years, and expanded the description of electrocatalytic oxidation technology and bimetallic catalytic removal technology. Based on a three-dimensional electrode reactor, the theoretical design of a VOC removal control technology using bimetallic three-dimensional particle electrode electrocatalytic oxidation was proposed for the first time. The future research focus of this method was analyzed, and the importance of in-depth exploration of the catalytic performance of particle electrodes and the system reaction mechanism was emphasized. This review provides a new idea for using clean and efficient methods to remove VOCs.

Abstract
A series of 3DOM cerium-based perovskite catalysts with different B-site elements were prepared by the colloidal crystal template method and excess impregnation method with Cr, Ni, and Mn as the B-site elements. The physical and chemical properties of the catalysts were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), hydrogen temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR), and oxygen temperature-programmed desorption (O2-TPD) characterization techniques. The results showed that the catalyst with Mn as the B-site element had a high-quality macropore structure (pore size 200-250 nm), large specific surface area (45.26 m2/g), and abundant surface adsorbed oxygen content (Oads/Olatt = 0.46). The addition of manganese enhanced the low-temperature reducibility, and the main reduction peak was below 400 °C. The O2-TPD results showed that 3DOM CeMnO3 expressed the highest adsorption oxygen content. The 3DOM CeMnO3 possessed the best catalytic performance with T50% = 102 °C and T90% = 203 °C during the catalytic oxidation of toluene. Intermediate product study hinted that toluene was first converted into benzoic acid and benzaldehyde and then further degraded into small molecules. The catalyst with the best activity also exhibited good stability, and toluene degradation rate remained above 85% at 200°C for more than 20 h of continuous experiments.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 447:130769.

Abstract
In this work, a photocatalytic fuel cell (PFC) with a gas diffusion TiO2 photoanode is proposed to directly convert chemical energy contained in volatile organic compounds into electricity by using solar energy. The gas diffusion TiO2 photoanode is prepared by coating TiO2 nanoparticles onto Ti mesh, whose intrinsic porous structure allows for gaseous pollutants to directly transfer inside the photoanode and thereby enhances mass transport. The feasibility of the developed gas diffusion photoanode is demonstrated by degrading toluene as a model gaseous pollutant. It is shown that the newly-developed PFC yields better electricity generation and toluene removal efficiency due to the enhanced mass transport of toluene and the eliminated interference of gas bubbles. The short-circuit current density and maximum power density of the PFC with a gas diffusion TiO2 photoanode (0.1 mA/cm2 and 0.02 mW/cm2) are about 3.3 times and 4 times as those of the bubbling PFC (0.03 mA/cm2 and 0.005 mW/cm2), respectively. Both the discharging performance and toluene removal efficiency increase with increasing the light intensity and electrolyte concentration, while there exists an optimal gas flow rate leading to the best performance. The present work provides an innovative strategy for clean processing of volatile organic compounds while recycling the contained chemical energy.

Abstract
Abstract
Since the advent of the industrial revolution, there has been a constant need of efficient catalysts for abatement of industrial toxic pollutants. This phenomenon necessitated the development of eco-friendly, stable, and economically feasible catalytic materials like lanthanum-based perovskite-type oxides (PTOs) having well-defined crystal structure, excellent thermal, and structural stability, exceptional ionic conductivity, redox behavior, and high tunability. In this review, applicability of La-based PTOs in remediation of pollutants, including CO, NO
x
and VOCs was addressed. A framework for rationalizing reaction mechanism, substitution effect, preparation methods, support, and catalyst shape has been discussed. Furthermore, reactant conversion efficiencies of best PTOs have been compared with noble-metal catalysts for each application. The catalytic properties of the perovskites including electronic and structural properties have been extensively presented. We highlight that a robust understanding of electronic structure of PTOs will help develop perovskite catalysts for other environmental applications involving oxidation or redox reactions.

Abstract
ABO3-type perovskites (A = La, Ce; B = Mn, Ni) were prepared by sol-gel method, and applied for catalytic oxidation of toluene. The activity test results show that the activity of LaMnO3 can be improved when a small amount of Ce and Ni are doped into the A and B sites of LaMnO3, respectively. The effects of different calcination temperatures and different calcination time on the preparation of La-based perovskites were also investigated. The results illustrate that the toluene conversion of La0.8Ce0.2Mn0.8Ni0.2O3 is the highest when the calcination temperature is 700 °C and the calcination time is 4 h in La1-xCexMn1-yNiyO3 perovskites, and it requires lower reaction temperature when the conversion rate of toluene reaches 100% as compared to other catalysts, the T90 is 295 °C (T90, the temperature corresponding to the 90% of toluene conversion). Importantly, the mechanism of catalytic oxidation was also discussed. Therefore, the catalyst has potential prospects in the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) degradation.

Abstract
Ce-doped LaBO3 (Ce0.05La0.95BO3) and a corresponding incorporation with 3d transition metals (TMs) were prepared and evaluated for eliminating propane. Our results showed the catalytic activity toward propane combustion has a close relationship with the loaded TMs, which promoted oxygen vacancies density and further enhanced the reduction and acidity of this material. This eventually led to 90% propane conversion at 718 K for a Cu-loaded Ce0.05La0.95BO3 catalyst. During 10 h of catalytic propane oxidation, the propane-elimination rate was maintained very well, with no degradation of the catalyst.

Abstract
Amplified anthropogenic release of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) gets worse air quality and human health. Photocatalytic degradation of VOCs is the practical strategy due to its low cost, simplicity, high efficiency, and environmental sustainability. Different types of photocatalyst activated by UV and visible lights are applied for VOC degradation. This review tries to investigate the state-of-art of recently published papers on this subject with a focus on the high-efficiency photocatalyst. The novel photocatalysts are introduced and enhancing photocatalytic activity strategies such as the hybrid of two/three photocatalyst, impurity doping, and heterojunctions with narrow bandgap semiconductors have been explained. The procedures of visible light activation of the photocatalysts are discussed with attention to current problems and future challenges. In addition, effective operational parameters in the photocatalytic degradation of VOCs have been reviewed with their advantages and drawbacks. A series of strategies are developed for the efficient utilization of visible light photocatalysts and improving new materials or design structures to degrade produced toxic intermediates/by-products during photocatalytic degradation of VOCs. This review shows that there are significant challenges in the applications of photocatalysts in the selective removal of VOCs. Several approaches should be combined to produce synergistic effects, which may lead to much higher photocatalytic performance than individual strategies. Another challenge is to develop efficient photocatalysts to meet real problems on an industrial scale.

J Environ Sci (China) 2022; 120:105-114.

Abstract
Catalytic wet air oxidation (CWAO) coupled desalination technology provides a possibility for the effective and economic degradation of high salinity and high organic wastewater. Chloride widely occurs in natural and wastewaters, and its high content jeopardizes the efficacy of Advanced oxidation process (AOPs). Thus, a novel chlorine ion resistant catalyst B-site Ru doped LaFe1-xRuxO3-δ in CWAO treatment of chlorine ion wastewater was examined. Especially, LaFe0.85Ru0.15O3-δ was 45.5% better than that of the 6%RuO2@TiO2 (commercial carrier) on total organic carbon (TOC) removal. Also, doped catalysts LaFe1-xRuxO3-δ showed better activity than supported catalysts RuO2@LaFeO3 and RuO2@TiO2 with the same Ru content. Moreover, LaFe0.85Ru0.15O3-δ has novel chlorine ion resistance no matter the concentration of Cl- and no Ru dissolves after the reaction. X-ray diffraction (XRD) refinement, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), transmission electron microscope (TEM), and X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) measurements verified the structure of LaFe0.85Ru0.15O3-δ. Kinetic data and density functional theory (DFT) proved that Fe is the site of acetic acid oxidation and adsorption of chloride ions. The existence of Fe in LaFe0.85Ru0.15O3-δ could adsorb chlorine ion (catalytic activity inhibitor), which can protect the Ru site and other active oxygen species to exert catalytic activity. This work is essential for the development of chloride-resistant catalyst in CWAO.

Abstract
Single-phase oxygen stoichiometric LaMnO3 and doped La0.8A0.2MnO3 (A = Ca, Sr, Ba) perovskites have been prepared by a simple one-step auto-combustion method. Cation-deficient LaMnO3+δ and La0.8A0.2MnO3+δ were obtained by calcination of the former samples in air at 750 °C. The samples were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, temperature-programmed reduction, temperature-programmed oxygen desorption, and N2 physisorption in order to apply them as catalysts in the complete catalytic oxidation of acetone as a model volatile organic compound. The studied phases show the expected orthorhombic and rhombohedral perovskite crystal structures. Catalytic experiments performed with all the samples show measurable activity already at 100 °C. At 200 °C, doped La0.8A0.2MnO3 samples show higher activity than undoped LaMnO3, with increasing conversion with larger A-cation size. Calcined samples also show higher activity than as-prepared ones making La0.8Ba0.2MnO3+δ the best catalyst at this temperature. All doped samples show >95% acetone conversion at T ≥ 250 °C with a weak dependence on the sample processing or A cation doping. The collected evidence confirms that the most important factors for the catalytic activity of these oxides are the Mn4+/Mn3+ molar ratio on the surface of the samples and the cation-deficiency of the bulk perovskite structure. In addition, increasing the symmetry of the bulk crystal structure appears to have an additional favourable effect. Despite the observation of the presence of surface carbonates, we show that it is possible to use the as-prepared samples without further thermal treatment with good results in the oxidation of acetone.

Abstract
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are detrimental to the environment and human health and must be eliminated before discharging. Oxidation by heterogeneous catalysts is one of the most promising approaches for the VOCs abatement. Precious metal catalysts are highly active for the catalytic oxidation of VOCs, but they are rare and their high price limits large-scale application. Supported metal single-atom catalysts (SACs) have a high atom efficiency and provide the possibility to circumvent such limitations. This Review summarizes recent advances in the use of metal SACs for the complete oxidation of VOCs, such as benzene, toluene, formaldehyde, and methanol, as well as aliphatic and Cl- and S-containing hydrocarbons. The structures of the metal SACs used and the reaction mechanisms of the VOC oxidation are discussed. The most widely used SACs are noble metals supported on oxides, especially on reducible oxides, such as Mn2 O3 and TiO2 . The reactivity of most SACs is related to the activity of surface lattice oxygen of the oxides. Furthermore, several metal SACs show better reactivity and improved S and Cl resistance than the corresponding nanocatalysts, indicating that SACs have potential for application in the oxidation of VOCs. The deactivation and regeneration mechanisms of the metal SACs are also summarized. It is concluded that the application of metal SACs in catalytic oxidation of VOCs is still in its infancy. This Review aims to elucidate structure-performance relationships and to guide the design of highly efficient metal SACs for the catalytic oxidation of VOCs.

Abstract
A combination study of density functional theory (DFT) calculation and microkinetic analysis was carried out to investigate A-site tuning effect on formaldehyde (HCHO) oxidation over La-Mn perovskite catalysts (A = Sr, Ag, and Sn). The oxygen mobility of A-doped LaMnO3 catalysts and reaction mechanism of HCHO oxidation on catalyst surfaces were investigated. The microkinetic simulation was performed to quantitatively determine the activity of catalysts toward the HCHO catalytic oxidation. The results indicated that A-site tuning weakens the binding energy of Mn-O bond of LaMnO3 surface and facilitates the formation of surface oxygen vacancy. The presence of dopants can significantly reduce the activation energy of O2 dissociation, which ascribes to the facilitation of electron transfer between oxygen species and catalyst surfaces. The reaction cycle of HCHO oxidation contains seven steps: HCHO adsorption, HCHO* dehydrogenation, CHO* dehydrogenation, CO2 desorption, H2O desorption, O2 adsorption and oxygen vacancy recovery. The dopants promote HCHO adsorption and reduce the activation energy of HCHO oxidation. Two elementary steps control the overall reaction rate of HCHO oxidation. CHO* dehydrogenation step has the largest degree of rate control value at low temperature and O2 adsorption step controls the whole reaction at high temperature.

Abstract
Toluene is one of the pollutants that are dangerous to the environment and human health and has been sorted into priority pollutants; hence, the control of its emission is necessary. Due to severe problems caused by toluene, different techniques for the abatement of toluene have been developed. Catalytic oxidation is one of the promising methods and effective technologies for toluene degradation as it oxidizes it to CO2 and does not deliver other pollutants to the environment. This paper highlights the recent progressive advancement of the catalysts for toluene oxidation. Five categories of catalysts, including noble metal catalysts, transition metal catalysts, perovskite catalysts, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)-based catalysts, and spinel catalysts reported in the past half a decade (2015-2020), are reviewed. Various factors that influence their catalytic activities, such as morphology and structure, preparation methods, specific surface area, relative humidity, and coke formation, are discussed. Furthermore, the reaction mechanisms and kinetics for catalytic oxidation of toluene are also discussed.

Abstract
The sample containing 57 volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in nitrogen at a nominal 1 ppmv was prepared in our lab using weighting method. A methodology for determination of the 57 VOCs using a two-dimensional gas chromatography equipped with Deans switches and two flame ionization detectors (GC × GC-FID) was developed and validated for resolution, asymmetry, sensitivity, precision (intra-day precision and inter-day precision), linearity, limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ) and accuracy. In this study, resolution, asymmetry and sensitivity of the analytical method were improved,intra-day precisions of all the compounds were <1% and inter-day precisions were between 0.9 and 3.0%. In addition, LOQ and LOD were in the range of 0.024-0.185 ppmv and 0.012-0.092 ppmv, respectively. An excellent linearity was obtained (R2 > 0.9995). At the meantime, the accuracy of the analytical method was evaluated by determining the concentration of a certified reference material.

Abstract
In order to explore a superior washcoat material to give full play to the catalytic activity of perovskite active components on the monolithic catalysts, three novel types of LaCoO3/washcoat/cordierite monolith catalysts were prepared by a facile two-step procedure which employed the cordierite honeycomb ceramic as the monolith substrate, the nano-oxides (ZrO2, ɤ-Al2O3, TiO2) as the washcoat, and the perovskite of LaCoO3 as the active components. The blank cordierite, powdered LaCoO3, semi-manufactured monolithic catalysts (washcoat/cordierite), and manufactured monolithic catalysts (LaCoO3/washcoat/cordierite) were characterized by XRD, SEM, XPS, N2 adsorption-desorption, H2-TPR, and ultrasonic test, and their catalytic activities and catalytic stability were evaluated by the toluene oxidation test. The research results indicate that the nanoparticles coated on the cordierite substrate as the washcoat can give full play to the catalytic ability of the LaCoO3 active components and also showed high catalytic stability. However, the catalytic properties of the monolithic catalysts vary notably with the species of nano-washcoat. Among all the catalysts, the porous honeycomb surface structure, uniform distribution, high ratio of surface adsorbed oxygen, and strong reducing ability together give the LaCoO3/ZrO2/cordierite monolithic catalyst the highest catalytic activity on the oxidation of toluene at low temperature, which could be attributed to the excellent interactions of perovskite and nano-ZrO2 washcoat. Therefore, the nano-oxides, especially the nano-ZrO2, have a broad practical application potential for toluene oxidation at low temperature as the washcoat of perovskite-based monolithic catalysts.

Abstract
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are one of the main sources of air pollution, which are of wide concern because of their toxicity and serious threat to the environment and human health. Catalytic oxidation has been proven to be a promising and effective technology for VOCs abatement in the presence of heat or light. As environmentally friendly and low-cost materials, manganese-based oxides are the most competitive and promising candidates for the catalytic degradation of VOCs in thermocatalysis or photo/thermocatalysis. This article summarizes the research and development on various manganese-based oxide catalysts, with emphasis on their thermocatalytic and photo/thermocatalytic purification of VOCs in recent years in detail. Single manganese oxides, manganese-based oxide composites, as well as improving strategies such as morphology regulation, heterojunction engineering, and surface decoration by metal doping or universal acid treatment are reviewed. Besides, manganese-based monoliths for practical VOCs abatementare also discussed. Meanwhile, relevant catalytic mechanisms are also summarized. Finally, the existing problems and prospect of manganese-based oxide catalysts for catalyzing combustion of VOCs are proposed.

Abstract
A one-dimensional (1D) core-shell of Co-Ce oxide has been prepared by multifluidic coaxial electrospinning method and evaluated for the total oxidation of propane (C3H8). Activity and morphological characterizations show that the CeO2@Co3O4 nanofiber catalyst, of which the core is CeO2 and the shell is Co3O4, exhibits excellent oxidation activity. The exposed Co3O4 grown on the outside of the fibers can rapidly react with C3H8 while CeO2 with high oxygen storage capacity in the inside is conductive to the enhanced oxidation rate. Besides, the continuous grain boundary provides a fast mass transfer channel for lattice oxygen, and rich oxygen vacancies favor the mobility of active oxygen species. In situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTs) confirms that the CeO2@Co3O4 catalyst have a faster rate of C3H8 adsorption and better oxidation activity with respect to the counterpart using a single-needle electrospinning method. Moreover, the CeO2@Co3O4 catalyst displays excellent thermal stability, and strong resistance against 5 vol% H2O and 5 vol% CO2 at both 300 and 400 °C. Our strategy can give some new insights into morphological engineering to promote active oxygen mobility via the construction of one-dimensional core-shell of metal oxides for catalytic oxidation of VOCs.

Abstract
Pristine biochar (CN600), ball-milled biochar (CN600-BM), H2O2 modified BM-biochar (CN600-O), and NH4OH modified BM-biochar (CN600-N) derived from corn stalk were applied to adsorb phenyl volatile organic compounds (VOCs). H2O2 and NH4OH modification of BM-biochar significantly improved its physicochemical characteristics and adsorption abilities. The specific surface area of CN600-O increased 2.05 and 1.23 times compared to CN600 and CN600-BM, respectively; while CN600-N increased 2.41 and 1.45 times, respectively. In addition, the ball milled biochars, especially CN600-O, showed higher acidity and polarity than CN600. The VOC adsorption amount onto biochars was 10.96-130.21 mg/g. CN600-O and CN600-N had high uptake of the VOCs and reached 100.07-111.79 mg/g and 110.49-130.21 mg/g, respectively. CN600-N showed the best performance with P-xylene adsorption up to 130.21 mg/g. VOC adsorption onto the CN600-O and CN600-N were mainly governed by surface adsorption and associated with morphology characteristics of the biochars as well as VOC properties such as boiling point and molecular size. Five cycles of adsorption-desorption experiments showed that CN600-O and CN600-N had good reusability with the reuse efficiencies of 88.01 %-92.21 % and 92.19 %-95.39 %, respectively. The results indicate that O- and N-doped ball-milled biochars are promising in adsorption for effective and sustainable VOC removal.

Abstract
PAF-45 with a wholly aromatic framework, intrinsic microporosity and π-π conjugation system shows excellent performance in aromatic pollutant removal. It exhibits a high adsorption capacity for the benzene series and moderate photocatalytic performance. As an adsorbent, PAF-45 can adsorb 35 wt% benzene and 68 wt% chlorobenzene in static adsorption experiments at room temperature and pressure. In benzene simulation wastewater, PAF-45 also shows excellent adsorption capacity, without significant reduction after 10 cycles of the adsorption-desorption process. Moreover, PAF-45 exhibits an impressive photocatalytic degradability of aromatic compounds, like aniline and phenol, under visible light illumination.

Complete Benzene Oxidation over Mono and Bimetallic Pd—Au Catalysts on Alumina-Supported Y-Doped Ceria. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2020.

Abstract
The protection of environment and human health stimulates intensive research for abatement of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the atmosphere. Complete catalytic oxidation is an efficient, environmentally friendly and economically feasible method for elimination of VOCs. This study aims to design high performing and cost-effective catalytic formulations by exploration of appropriate and economically viable supports. Alumina-supported ceria (30 wt.%) and Y2O3 (1 wt.%)-doped ceria were prepared by mechanical mixing and were used as support of mono Au (2 wt.%) and Pd (1 wt.%) and bimetallic Pd-Au catalysts. The characterization by textural measurements, X-ray powder diffraction (PXRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), EPR (electron paramagnetic resonance) and temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) was carried out in order to clarify the relationship between catalyst composition, textural, structural and surface properties, reducibility and catalytic performance for complete benzene oxidation. Among all studied catalysts, Pd-based catalysts exhibited the best combustion activity. In particular, monometallic Pd on alumina supported Y-doped ceria attained 100% of complete benzene conversion at 180 °C. These catalytic materials have potential to meet stringent emission regulations in an economical and effective way.
