The performance of various CeO2/H-ZSM5 catalysts was evaluated for the oxidation of one of the most common chlorinated pollutants found in waste streams, namely 1, 2- dichloroethane. The supported samples with varying CeO2 loading (6–50wt.%) were prepared by impregnation and subsequently calcined at 550° C. Structural, morphological and physico-chemical changes caused by the CeO2 addition were analysed by X-ray ...
