MnO-X catalysts (X = Cu, Fe, Ce and La) were prepared based on γ-AlO for the mixture degradation of muti-component volatile organic compounds (VOCs) composed of toluene, acetone, and ethyl acetate. The catalysts were characterized, and the density functional theory (DFT) simulation of ozone adsorption on MnO-X were carried out to investigate the influence of adsorption energy on catalytic performance. The results showed that the removal efficiency (RE) of each VOC component was similarly improved by MnO-X catalysts, and the greatest increase in VOCs' removal efficiency was obtained (7.

The degradation performance comparison between SDBD reactors with a mesh and a spring electrode was carried out as well. A significant improvement in carbon balance and CO selectivity were obtained in mesh SBDB reactor compared with that of spring's one.
