Multipurpose composite MnCeOx catalysts for environmental applications

Abstract

The pressing need to preserve the state of the environment and of natural resources imposes a global technological effort aimed at turning the current “money-making” industrial policies into sustainable development behaviour. This green revolution entails a big scientific effort for developing handy and economic technologies for the decontamination of gas and liquid wastes, improving the quality of air and water, clean industrial manufacturing, and renewable energy supply. In this context the composite MnCeOx system represents a viable alternative to high-cost noble metals for a variety of environmental catalytic applications like the detoxification treatment of industrial wastewater; the abatement of pollutants in gas exhausts; and bio-fuel and fine-chemicals synthesis and manufacture.
