Technology Overview
Currently, the most frequently adopted method of reducing VOC emissions is air pollution abatement using high-temperature methods, which require a large amount of fuel to proceed at 700-800°C. Compared with international nanocatalyst products, which require a reactive temperature in the range of 300-350°C, ITRI’s single-atom technology can disperse platinum onto the surface of a support to form a single-atom catalyst, and the amount of precious metal required is a mere 20% when compared with technologies from well-known international manufacturers. Field test confirmation indicates that the destruction removal efficiency (DRE) for VOCs can reach 99% at 200°C. In the future, fuel consumption may be reduced more than 50% via heat integration, leading to both energy savings and carbon reduction. Furthermore, this technology can lower both equipment costs and the danger of overheating.
