Abstract:
Destruction of indoor air pollutant formaldehyde using dielectric barrier discharge plasma in a coaxial cylindrical reactor was carried out at atmospheric pressure and room temperature. Three kinds of catalysts, that is, TiO2, BaTiO3, or TiO2 & BaTiO3 were tested for HCHO removal. Effect of catalyst carrier, catalysts, and catalyst amount on specific energy density (SED), energy yield (EY) and HCHO removal efficiency were investigated. The by-product was detected and the mechanism of HCHO degradation was performed. It had been found that DBD reactor contained TiO2 & BaTiO3 catalysts could effectively decompose formaldehyde. The HCHO conversion of three kinds of catalyst was TiO2 & BaTiO3 > BaTiO3 > TiO2. Higher amount of BaTiO3 in TiO2 & BaTiO3 catalysts was slightly superior to the smaller. Furthermore, TiO2 & BaTiO3 catalyst could not only enhance the HCHO removal efficiency, but also save the energy, which could be used for industrial application.
