Abstract
The necessity of converting toxic gas has arisen from the usage of perfluorinated compounds (PFCs), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and hydrocarbon gases in the semiconductor process and laboratories. Also, recent strong regulations on the emission gas from vehicles also present the need for the highly efficient chemical conversion of toxic emission gases. In this study, we present the fabrication of platinum and ruthenium alloy metal catalysts on the yttria-stabilized zirconia balls, and the application of the metal catalysts to the catalytic converter for methane oxidation. The platinum and ruthenium alloy metal catalysts showed better performance than the platinum catalyst, i.e., 75% increase in the methane conversion efficiency at 500℃. Such improvement seems to be because of the facile oxygen supply from the ruthenium surface. Also, the platinum and ruthenium alloy catalysts with the doped cerium oxide interlayer showed better thermal stability than the platinum and ruthenium alloy metal catalysts, possibly because of the stronger bonding between the metal and oxide support.
