Abstract
Mn3O4-Fe2O3 composite catalysts are in-situ synthesized via advanced oxidation followed by modifying with hydrochloric acid to improve the catalytic toluene oxidation performance. Mn3O4-Fe2O3 modified with 1.0 M HCl (A-1.0) exhibited best activity of toluene oxidation. The temperature of 50% toluene conversion is 245 °C and the temperature of 90% conversion is 279 °C. There are much more abundant surface lattice oxygen species and higher amount of high valence manganese and iron ions on A-1.0 catalyst, which are beneficial for improving catalytic activity. In-situ DRIFTs indicated that benzaldehyde and benzoic acid are main intermediate products on A-1.0 catalyst during toluene oxidation.
