These substances lead to the formation of haze to various environmental problems after atmospheric circulation and diffusion. Controlling NH_(3) emissions caused by ammonia escaping from mobile and industrial sources can effectively reduce the NH_(3) content in ambient air. Among the various NH_(3) removal methods, the selective catalytic oxygen method (NH_(3)-SCO) is committed to oxidizing NH_(3) to environmentally harmless H_(2)O and N_(2);therefore, it is the most valuable and ideal ammonia removal method. In this review, the characteristics of loaded and core-shell catalysts in NH_(3)-SCO have been reviewed in the context of catalyst structure-activity relationships, and the H_(2)O resistance and SO2 resistance of the catalysts are discussed in the context of practical application conditions. Then the effects of the valence state of the active center, oxygen species on the catalyst surface, dispersion of the active center and acidic sites on the catalyst performance are discussed comprehensively. Finally, the shortcomings of the existing catalysts are summarized and the catalyst development is discussed based on the existing studies.展开更多

At x = 0.3 and 0.5, most of the manganese was incorporated in the fluorite structure of Ce O2 to form a solid solution. The catalytic activity was best at x = 0.5, at which the temperature of 100% removal rate is the lowest（270°C）. The temperature for 100% removal of HCHO oxidation is reduced by approximately 40°C by loading 5 wt.% Cu Oxinto Mn0.5Ce0.5O2. With ozone catalytic oxidation, HCHO（61 ppm） in gas stream was completely oxidized by adding 506 ppm O3 over Mn0.5Ce0.5O2 catalyst with a GHSV（gas hourly space velocity） of 10,000 hr-1at 25°C. The effect of the molar ratio of O3 to HCHO was also investigated. As O3/HCHO ratio was increased from 3 to 8, the removal efficiency of HCHO was increased from 83.3% to 100%. With O3/HCHO ratio of 8, the mineralization efficiency of HCHO to CO2 was 86.1%. At 25°C, the p-type oxide semiconductor（Mn0.5Ce0.5O2） exhibited an excellent ozone decomposition efficiency of 99.2%,which significantly exceeded that of n-type oxide semiconductors such as Ti O2, which had a low ozone decomposition efficiency（9.81%）. At a GHSV of 10,000 hr-1, [O3]/[HCHO] = 3 and temperature of 25°C, a high HCHO removal efficiency（≥ 81.2%） was maintained throughout the durability test of 80 hr, indicating the long-term stability of the catalyst for HCHO removal.展开更多

The fresh and pretreated Pd/Al2O3 catalysts were characterized by transmission electron microscopy （TEM）, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS） and X-ray diffraction （XRD）. The results showed that the pretreatment dramatically changed the Pd/PdO ratio and then significantly affected the Pd/Al2O3 activity; while the pretreatment had not much influence on Pd particle size. The Pd/Al2O3 pre-reduced at 300~C/400~C, which has fully reduced Pd species, showed the highest activity; while the fresh Pd/Al2O3, which has fully oxidized Pd species, presented the worst performance, indicating the Pd chemical state plays an important role in the catalytic activity for the o-xylene oxidation. It is concluded that metallic Pd is the active species on the Pd/Al2O3 catalyst for the catalytic oxidation of o-xylene at low temperature.展开更多

In this study,γ-MnO2,α-MnO2, and δ-MnO2 with corresponding rod, tube, and hierarchical architecture morphologies were prepared and applied for the catalytic oxidation of chlorobenzene (CB). The redox ability, H2O activation behavior, and acidity of MnO2 were analyzed using a range of techniques, including TPR, H2O-TPD, XPS, and pyridine-IR. The catalytic activities in CB oxidation were assessed;this revealed that γ-MnO2 exhibited the highest activity and best stability, owing to its enriched surface oxygen vacancies that functioned to activate O2 and H2O, and capture labile chlorine, which reacted with dissociated H2O to form HCl. All the MnO2 phases generated toxic polychlorinated by-products, including CHCl3, CCl4, C2HCl3, and C2Cl4, indicating the occurrence of electrophilic chlorination during CB oxidation. In particular, the dichlorobenzene detected in the effluents of α-MnO2 might generate unintended dioxins via a nucleophilic substitution reaction.展开更多

The results showed that Hg 0 could be oxidized by active oxygen atom on the surface of nano-Fe 2 O 3 as well as lattice oxygen in nano-Fe 2 O 3 . Among the factors that affect Hg 0 oxidation by nano-Fe 2 O 3 , bed temperature plays an important role. More than 40% of total mercury was oxidized at 300°C, however, the test temperature at 400°C could cause sintering of nano-catalyst, which led to a lower efficiency of Hg 0 oxidation. The increase of oxygen concentration could promote mercury oxidation and led to higher Hg 0 oxidation efficiency. No obvious mercury oxidation was detected in the pure N 2 atmosphere, which indicates that oxygen is required in the gas stream for mercury oxidation. The presence of water vapour showed different effects on mercury oxidation depending on its concentration. The lower content of water vapour could promote mercury oxidation, while the higher content of water vapour inhibits mercury oxidation.展开更多

文摘Concurrent activation of lattice oxygen(O_L)and molecular oxygen(O_(2))is crucial for the efficient catalytic oxidation of biomass-derived molecules over metal oxides.Herein,we report that the introduction of ultralow-loading of Ru single atoms(0.42 wt%)into Mn_(2)O_(3)matrix(0.4%Ru-Mn_(2)O_(3))greatly boosts its catalytic activity for the aerobic oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural(HMF)to 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid(FDCA).The FDCA productivity over the 0.4%Ru-Mn_(2)O_(3)(5.4 mmol_(FDCA)g_(cat)h^(-1))is 4.9 times higher than the Mn_(2)O_(3).Especially,this FDCAproductivity is also significantly higher than that of existing Ru and Mn-based catalysts.Experimental and theoretical investigations discovered that the Ru single atom facilitated the formation of oxygen vacancy(O_(v))in the catalyst,which synergistically weakened the Mn-O bond and promoted the activation of O_L.The co-presence of Ru single atoms and O_(v)also promote the adsorption and activation of both O_(2)and HMF.Consequently,the dehydrogenation reaction energy barrier of the rate-determining step was reduced via both the O_L and chemisorbed O_(2)dehydrogenation pathways,thus boosting the catalytic oxidation reactions.

文摘Creating a new low-temperature catalyst in decreasing the emission of volatile organic compounds(VOCs)has great significance under different industrial production situations.In particular,the Zr-UiO-66 is optimized by different amounts of cerium,which not only enhances the physicochemical stability but also increases the number of active sites of Ce_(x)Zr_(y)UiO-66.Furthermore,the catalysts with Co_(3)O_(4)nanoparticles supported on Ce_(x)Zr_(y)UiO-66 were successfully prepared via impregnation method.In the process of toluene degradation,the Co/Ce_(1)Zr_(2)-Ui0-66 attains a 90%conversion rate at 210℃with a space velocity of 60000 mL/(g·h)and toluene concentration at 1000×10^(-6).Meanwhile,the carbon dioxide selectivity reaches 100%at 218℃.The Co/Ce_(1)Zr_(2)-UiO-66 shows great water resistance(3 vol%H_(2)O).Multiple characterization methods were used to figure out the physicochemical properties of the catalysts.It is found that the addition of an appropriate amount of cerium can enhance stability of UiO-66 and surface lattice oxygen proportion.Additionally,the stronger electron transfer between Ce^(4+)and Co^(2+)enables the Co/Ce_(1)Zr_(2)-UiO-66 to possess more active surface oxygen species and Co_(3)+cationic species in all samples.

文摘Volatile organic compounds(VOCs)exhausted from industrial processes are the major atmospheric pollutants,which could destroy the ecological environment and make hazards to human health seriously.Catalytic oxidation is regarded as the most competitive strategy for the efficient elimination of low-concentration VOCs.Supported noble metal catalysts are preferred catalysts due to their excellent low-temperature catalytic activity.To further lower the cost of catalysts,single atom catalysts(SAC)have been fabricated and extensively studied for application in VOCs oxidation due to their 100%atom-utilization efficiency and unique catalytic performance.In this review,we comprehensively summarize the recent advances in supported noble metal(e.g.,Pt,Pd,Au,and Ag)catalysts and SAC for VOCs oxidation since 2015.Firstly,this paper focuses on some important influencing factors that affect the activity of supported noble metal catalysts,including particle size,valence state and dispersion of noble metals,properties of the support,metal oxide/ion modification,preparation method,and pretreatment conditions of catalysts.Secondly,we briefly summarize the catalytic performance of SAC for typical VOCs.Finally,we conclude the key influencing factors and provide the prospects and challenges of VOCs oxidation.

文摘Alkali metal potassium was beneficial to the electronic regulation and structural stability of transition metal oxides.Herein,K ions were introduced into manganese oxides by different methods to improve the degradation efficiency of toluene.The results of activity experiments indicated that KMnO_(4)-HT(HT:Hydrothermal method)exhibited outstanding low-temperature catalytic activity,and 90%conversion of toluene can be achieved at 243℃,which was 41℃and 43℃lower than that of KNO_(3)-HT and Mn-HT,respectively.The largest specific surface area was observed on KMnO_(4)-HT,facilitating the adsorption of toluene.The formation of cryptomelane structure over KMnO_(4)-HT could contribute to higher content of Mn^(3+)and lattice oxygen(Olatt),excellent low-temperature reducibility,and high oxygen mobility,which could increase the catalytic performance.Furthermore,two distinct degradation pathways were inferred.PathwayⅠ(KMnO_(4)-HT):toluene→benzyl→benzoic acid→carbonate→CO_(2)and H2O;PathwayⅡ(Mn-HT):toluene→benzyl alcohol→benzoic acid→phenol→maleic anhydride→CO_(2)and H2O.Fewer intermediates were detected on KMnO_(4)-HT,indicating its stronger oxidation capacity of toluene,which was originated from the doping of K^(+)and the interaction between K-O-Mn.More intermediates were observed on Mn-HT,which can be attributed to the weaker oxidation ability of pure Mn.The results indicated that the doping of K^(+)can improve the catalytic oxidation capacity of toluene,resulting in promoted degradation of intermediates during the oxidation of toluene.

文摘Due to the presence of nitrogen,nitrogen-containing volatile organic compounds(NVOCs) are more difficult to remove than conventional volatile organic compounds(VOCs).Both catalytic activity and N_(2)selectivity should be considered in the design of suitable catalysts.A series of Ag/Ce-Zr solid solution(Ag/CZ)catalysts were prepared and applied to the catalytic oxidation of N,N-dimethylformamide(DMF).Redox ability and acidity were regulated by modifying the Zr content.The introduction of Zr promoted the formation of active oxygen species until the molar ratio of Zr reached 0.5,after which the formation decreased.Moreover,adding Zr increased the number of weak and medium acidic sites,which significantly improved DMF adsorption.The improved DMF adsorption hindered the combination of nitrogen and active oxygen,thus reducing the generation of NO_(x)effectively.Therefore,the Ag/CZ(5:5) catalyst,with suitable redox ability and acidity,exhibited the highest activity(T_(90)=176℃),the lowest elimination temperature of organic compounds(T=255℃),satisfactory N_(2)yield(95%-75% in the range of 240-400℃),and outstanding stability under both common and humid conditions(at least50 h).The reaction mechanism was investigated based on the in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy(DRIFTS) results.During the catalytic oxidation of DMF,the surface lattice oxygen directly participated in the dehydrogenation and dissociation of the C(O)-N bonds.The generated dimethylamine(DMA) was then oxidized by active oxygen species to form the final product.

文摘Polyoxometalates(POMs),as a class of multinuclear clusters,are polymerized of oxygen and early high-valent transition metals(e.g.,Mo,W,V and Nb).Based on the geometry of heteroatoms and the ratio of heteroatoms to coordination atoms,POMs can be classified into six classical configurations including Keggin-type,Dawson-type,Anderson-type,Waugh-type,Silverton-type,and Lindqvist-type.They exhibit the diverse structures and versatile properties,which enrich their applications in catalysis,medicine,electrochemistry,magnetism,and so on.The chemistry of POMs is an important branch of inorganic chemistry with a history of more than 200 years.It intersects with physical chemistry,analytical chemistry,structural chemistry,biochemistry,environmental chemistry,material chemistry and many other fields.Modern chemistry of POMs has developed from single POMs synthesis to controllable molecular design synthesis,from simple POMs monomer to high-dimensional,high-core and other novel structure clusters constructed with POMs as building units.Especially,POMs are considered as electron stores due to their strong ability to bear and release electrons,indicating they have redox properties.Therefore,POMs have received increasing attentions as redox heterogeneous catalysts.To resolve the problem of the high solubility of POMs,the design synthesis and performance research of functional complexes with POMs as inorganic ligands or non-coordination templates have become one of hot spots.The encapsulation of POMs into the crystalline architecture results in multifunctional hybrid materials,which combine the merits of POMs and the organic frameworks to achieve specific properties.With the increase of consciousness for environmental protection,green oxidants such as hydrogen peroxide and oxygen are utilized as main oxidants for the oxidation.The combination of POMs-based materials with environment friendly oxidants can efficiently catalyze various oxidation reactions,such as epoxidation of olefin,oxidation of sulfurcontaining compounds,oxidation of alcohols,oxidation of alkanes and so on.In this paper,an overview of recent advances of POMs in catalytic oxidation was presented.

文摘The catalytic oxidation of volatile organic compounds(VOCs)is of considerable significance for the sustainable development of the chemical industry;thus,considerable efforts have been devoted to the exploration of efficient catalysts for use in this reaction.In this regard,the development and utilization of single-atom catalysts(SACs)in VOCs decomposition is a rapidly expanding research area.SACs can be employed as potential catalysts for oxidizing VOC molecules due to their optimal utilization efficiency,unique atomic bonding structures,and unsaturated orbits.Progress has been achieved,while the challenges surrounding precise regulation of the microstructures of SACs for improving their low-temperature efficiency,stability,and product selectivity under practical conditions are remaining.Therefore,elucidating structure-performance relationships and establishing intrinsic modulating mechanisms are urgently required for guiding researchers on how to synthesize effective and stable functional SACs proactively.Herein,recent advances in the design and synthesis of functional SACs for application in the catalytic oxidation of VOCs are summarized.The experimental and theoretical studies revealing higher efficiency,stability,and selectivity of as-prepared functional SACs are being highlighted.Accordingly,the future perspectives in terms of promising catalysts with multi-sized composite active sites and the illustration of intrinsic mechanism are proposed.The rapid intelligent screening of applicable SACs and their industrial applications are also discussed.

文摘NH_(3) in ambient air directly leads to an increase in the aerosol content in the air. These substances lead to the formation of haze to various environmental problems after atmospheric circulation and diffusion. Controlling NH_(3) emissions caused by ammonia escaping from mobile and industrial sources can effectively reduce the NH_(3) content in ambient air. Among the various NH_(3) removal methods, the selective catalytic oxygen method (NH_(3)-SCO) is committed to oxidizing NH_(3) to environmentally harmless H_(2)O and N_(2);therefore, it is the most valuable and ideal ammonia removal method. In this review, the characteristics of loaded and core-shell catalysts in NH_(3)-SCO have been reviewed in the context of catalyst structure-activity relationships, and the H_(2)O resistance and SO2 resistance of the catalysts are discussed in the context of practical application conditions. Then the effects of the valence state of the active center, oxygen species on the catalyst surface, dispersion of the active center and acidic sites on the catalyst performance are discussed comprehensively. Finally, the shortcomings of the existing catalysts are summarized and the catalyst development is discussed based on the existing studies.

文摘Biomass-derived platform molecules,such as furfural,are abundant and renewable feedstock for valuable chemical production.It is critical to synthesize highly efficient photocatalysts for selective oxidation under visible light.The Er@K-C_(3)N_(4)/UiO-66-NH_(2) catalyst was synthesized using a straight-forward hydrothermal technique,and exhibited exceptional efficiency in the photocatalytic oxidation of furfural to furoic acid.The catalyst was thoroughly characterized,confirming the effective adjustment of the band gap energy of Er@K-C_(3)N_(4)/UiO-66-NH_(2).Upon the optimized reaction conditions,the conversion rate of furfural reached 89.3%,with a corresponding yield of furoic acid at 79.8%.The primary reactive oxygen species was identified as·O_(2)^(-) from ESR spectra and scavenger tests.The incorporation of Er and K into the catalyst enhanced the photogenerated carriers transfer rate,hence increasing the separating efficiency of photogenerated electron-hole pairs.This study expands the potential applications of rare earth element doped g-C_(3)N_(4) in the photocatalytic selective oxidation of furfurans.

文摘Developing low-loading single-atom catalysts with superior catalytic activity and selectivity in formaldehyde(HCHO)oxidation at room temperature remains challenging.Herein,ZrO_(2)nanoparticles coupled low-loading Ir single atoms in N-doped carbon(Ir_(1)-N-C/ZrO_(2))was prepared.The optimal Ir_(1)-N-C/ZrO_(2)with 0.25 wt%Ir loading delivers the high HCHO removal and conversion efficiency(>95%)at 20℃,which is higher than that over Ir_(1)-N-C with the same Ir loading.The specific rate can reach 1285.6 mmol gIr^(-1)h^(-1),surpassing the Ir based catalysts reported to date.Density functional theory calculation results and electron spin resonance spectra indicate that the introduction of Zr O_(2)nanoparticles modulate the electronic structure of the Ir single atoms,promoting O_(2)activation to·O_(2)^(–).Moreover,the Ir-C-Zr channel is favorable for the dissociation of·O_(2)^(–)to active oxygen atom(*O),and further accelerates the transformation of HCHO and intermediates(dioxymethylene and formates)to CO_(2)and H_(2)O.This work provides a facile strategy to design low-loading single-atom catalysts with high catalytic activity toward HCHO oxidation.

文摘Formaldehyde（HCHO）is carcinogenic and teratogenic,and is therefore a serious danger to human health.It also adversely affects air quality.Catalytic oxidation is an efficient technique for removing HCHO.The development of highly efficient and stable catalysts that can completely convert HCHO at low temperatures,even room temperature,is important.Supported Pt and Pd catalysts can completely convert HCHO at room temperature,but their industrial applications are limited because they are expensive.The catalytic activities in HCHO oxidation of transition-metal oxide catalysts such as manganese and cobalt oxides with unusual morphologies are better than those of traditional MnO2,Co3O4,or other metal oxides.This is attributed to their specific structures,high specific surface areas,and other factors such as active phase,reducibility,and amount of surface active oxygens.Such catalysts with various morphologies have great potential and can also be used as catalyst supports.The loading of relatively cheap Ag or Au on transition-metal oxides with special morphologies potentially improves the catalytic activity in HCHO removal at room temperature.The preparation and development of new nanocatalysts with various morphologies and structures is important for HCHO removal.In this paper,research progress on precious-metal and transition-metal oxide catalyst systems for HCHO oxidation is reviewed; topics such as oxidation properties,structure–activity relationships,and factors influencing the catalytic activity and reaction mechanism are discussed.Future prospects and directions for the development of such catalysts are also covered.
文摘MnxCe1- xO2（x： 0.3–0.9） prepared by Pechini method was used as a catalyst for the thermal catalytic oxidation of formaldehyde（HCHO）. At x = 0.3 and 0.5, most of the manganese was incorporated in the fluorite structure of Ce O2 to form a solid solution. The catalytic activity was best at x = 0.5, at which the temperature of 100% removal rate is the lowest（270°C）. The temperature for 100% removal of HCHO oxidation is reduced by approximately 40°C by loading 5 wt.% Cu Oxinto Mn0.5Ce0.5O2. With ozone catalytic oxidation, HCHO（61 ppm） in gas stream was completely oxidized by adding 506 ppm O3 over Mn0.5Ce0.5O2 catalyst with a GHSV（gas hourly space velocity） of 10,000 hr-1at 25°C. The effect of the molar ratio of O3 to HCHO was also investigated. As O3/HCHO ratio was increased from 3 to 8, the removal efficiency of HCHO was increased from 83.3% to 100%. With O3/HCHO ratio of 8, the mineralization efficiency of HCHO to CO2 was 86.1%. At 25°C, the p-type oxide semiconductor（Mn0.5Ce0.5O2） exhibited an excellent ozone decomposition efficiency of 99.2%,which significantly exceeded that of n-type oxide semiconductors such as Ti O2, which had a low ozone decomposition efficiency（9.81%）. At a GHSV of 10,000 hr-1, [O3]/[HCHO] = 3 and temperature of 25°C, a high HCHO removal efficiency（≥ 81.2%） was maintained throughout the durability test of 80 hr, indicating the long-term stability of the catalyst for HCHO removal.

文摘A novel Pd electrocatalyst with flowerlike micro-nanostructures was synthesized by electrochemical deposition on a flexible graphene/polyimide（Gr/PI） composite membrane and characterized by scanning electron microscopy（SEM）,X-ray diffraction（XRD）.The Pd micro-nanoparticles were prepared on a COOH-CNTs/PI membrane as a comparative sample.The XRD and SEM investigations for Pd electrodeposition demonstrate that the particle size of Gr/PI composite membrane is smaller than that of COOH-CNTs/PI membrane,while the uniform and dense distribution of Pd micro-nanoparticles on the Gr/PI composite membrane is greater than that on the COOH-CNTs/PI membrane.The electrocatalytic properties of Pd/Gr/PI and Pd/COOH-CNTs/PI catalysts for the oxidation of formic acid were investigated by cyclic voltammetry（CV） and chronoamperometry（CA）.It is found that the electrocatalytic activity and stability of Pd/Gr/PI are superior to those of Pd/COOH-CNTs/PI catalyst.This is because smaller metal particles and higher dense distribution desirably provide abundant catalytic sites and mean higher catalytic activity.Therefore,the Pd/Gr/PI catalyst has better catalytic performance for formic acid oxidation than the Pd/COOH-CNTs/PI catalyst.

文摘The effect of pretreatment on Pd/Al2O3 catalysts for the catalytic oxidation of o-xylene at low temperature was studied by changing the pretreatment and testing conditions. The fresh and pretreated Pd/Al2O3 catalysts were characterized by transmission electron microscopy （TEM）, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS） and X-ray diffraction （XRD）. The results showed that the pretreatment dramatically changed the Pd/PdO ratio and then significantly affected the Pd/Al2O3 activity; while the pretreatment had not much influence on Pd particle size. The Pd/Al2O3 pre-reduced at 300~C/400~C, which has fully reduced Pd species, showed the highest activity; while the fresh Pd/Al2O3, which has fully oxidized Pd species, presented the worst performance, indicating the Pd chemical state plays an important role in the catalytic activity for the o-xylene oxidation. It is concluded that metallic Pd is the active species on the Pd/Al2O3 catalyst for the catalytic oxidation of o-xylene at low temperature.

文摘Various MnO2 structures have been extensively applied in catalysis. In this study,γ-MnO2,α-MnO2, and δ-MnO2 with corresponding rod, tube, and hierarchical architecture morphologies were prepared and applied for the catalytic oxidation of chlorobenzene (CB). The redox ability, H2O activation behavior, and acidity of MnO2 were analyzed using a range of techniques, including TPR, H2O-TPD, XPS, and pyridine-IR. The catalytic activities in CB oxidation were assessed;this revealed that γ-MnO2 exhibited the highest activity and best stability, owing to its enriched surface oxygen vacancies that functioned to activate O2 and H2O, and capture labile chlorine, which reacted with dissociated H2O to form HCl. All the MnO2 phases generated toxic polychlorinated by-products, including CHCl3, CCl4, C2HCl3, and C2Cl4, indicating the occurrence of electrophilic chlorination during CB oxidation. In particular, the dichlorobenzene detected in the effluents of α-MnO2 might generate unintended dioxins via a nucleophilic substitution reaction.

文摘Heterogeneous oxidation of gas-phase Hg 0 by nano-Fe 2 O 3 was investigated on a fixed bed reactor, and the effects of oxygen concentration, bed temperature, water vapour concentration and particle size have been discussed. The results showed that Hg 0 could be oxidized by active oxygen atom on the surface of nano-Fe 2 O 3 as well as lattice oxygen in nano-Fe 2 O 3 . Among the factors that affect Hg 0 oxidation by nano-Fe 2 O 3 , bed temperature plays an important role. More than 40% of total mercury was oxidized at 300°C, however, the test temperature at 400°C could cause sintering of nano-catalyst, which led to a lower efficiency of Hg 0 oxidation. The increase of oxygen concentration could promote mercury oxidation and led to higher Hg 0 oxidation efficiency. No obvious mercury oxidation was detected in the pure N 2 atmosphere, which indicates that oxygen is required in the gas stream for mercury oxidation. The presence of water vapour showed different effects on mercury oxidation depending on its concentration. The lower content of water vapour could promote mercury oxidation, while the higher content of water vapour inhibits mercury oxidation.
