Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) represent one of the most significant contributors to the air pollution. Catalytic oxidation is recognized as an efficient, cost-effective and environmentally friendly way to treat VOC emissions. Total catalytic oxidation of VOCs especially at low concentrations is a promising method to convert VOCs to water and carbon dioxide. Moreover, in contrast to thermal oxidation, dangerous reaction by-products such as NOx are not formed.
