Article Description

Gas phase selective photocatalytic oxidation of cyclohexane was studied in a two dimensional fluidized bed reactor on MoOx catalysts supported on grafted TiO/SiO. The influence of sulphate and Mo loading was evaluated. Photocatalytic tests showed that benzene was the main reaction product formed during irradiation with together CO and cyclohexene as by products. Depending on the TiO, Mo and sulphate loading, an enhancement of the activity and catalysts stability occurred during irradiation. MoOx/TiO/SiO samples showed a higher photocatalytic activity with respect to MoOx/TiO-AlO. This behaviour was attributed to the better transmission of UV light through SiO than through AlO and the lower absorption of the radiation.
