Abstract
In this study, various analyses were performed to evaluate the ozone removal characteristics using natural manganese ore (NMO) at room temperature. NMO exists primarily in the form of MnO2, and the specific forms of manganese oxide are formed as the calcination temperature increases. The activity tests, XRD, BET, and XPS analyses confirmed that the dispersion of manganese site exposed to the surface was a critical factor for ozone removal using NMO. To evaluate the actual application of NMO as a catalyst for ozone decomposition, NMO was also made as a form of monolith; as a result, the catalyst showed an excellent conversion rate (over 80%) even at space velocity 30,000 h−1.
