title: Catalytic oxidation of benzene with ozone over Mn/KIT-6.
abstract: Benzene is one of the target compounds to be removed from air owing to its carcinogenicity. In this study, benzene oxidation with ozone over a MnOx/KIT-6 catalyst was carried out for the first time. MnOx/KIT-6 was synthesized using two different Mn precursors: Mn acetate and Mn nitrate. The characteristics of the synthesized catalysts were examined by X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, temperature-programmed reduction, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area, and N2 adsorption-desorption. The catalytic activity was found to be dependent on the amount of ozone consumed and the dispersion and reducibility of MnOx on the catalyst surface.
