Abstract

In this paper, CoMn based nanowires were in-situ grown on foam nickel by hydrothermal method combined with calcination treatment, and a monolithic methane oxidation catalyst was obtained. The effects of hydrothermal temperature and calcination temperature on the crystal structure, micro morphology and catalytic performance of the catalysts were systematically studied. The results indicated that when the hydrothermal temperature was 160 °C and the calcination temperature was 350 °C, Mn doped Co3O4 nanowires with uniform morphology can be obtained, accompanied by the appearance of CoMn2O4. The introduction of Mn ions caused lattice distortion of Co3O4, achieving the regulation of adsorbed oxygen and lattice oxygen. The monolithic MnCoO/NF–H-160 °C catalyst showed the best catalytic activity (T90 = 414 °C) for lean methane catalytic oxidation, which even surpassed the noble metal based catalyst. Its excellent catalytic activity was due to the fact that the catalyst can expose more active sites, rich active oxygen and good mass transfer characteristics. This study provides a new approach for designing efficient monolithic catalysts and has significant potential for application and development in the field of organic waste gas treatment.
