Abstract
Abstract Precious metal ozone decomposition catalyst, its stabilization and method for decomposing ozone for purification and detoxification purposes by contacting with a decomposition catalyst containing a platinum group metal and a nonprecious Group VIII metal oxide or aluminate on a support, favoring exposure to ozone of the platinum group metal over the nonprecious metal oxide or aluminate, the arrangement favoring maximum conversion per unit volume and system pressure drop by catalytic element configuration within a given catalyst volume.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
95 words
An ozone decomposition catalyst comprising: (a) a carrier or support consisting of a plurality of spaced catalyst beds or monoliths arranged in series within a reaction zone; (b) at least one platinum group metal or catalytically-active compound thereof; and (c) at least one nonprecious Group VIII metal oxide or aluminate; the arrangement of active material favoring exposure to ozone of the platinum group metal component over the nonprecious Group VIII metal oxide or aluminate and wherein about 1.0-7.00 T.O./ft 3 Pd or higher is utilized in conjunction with NiO in a weight ratio of 1.0:0.5-5.0.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
95 words
An ozone decomposition catalyst comprising: (a) a carrier or support consisting of a plurality of spaced catalyst beds or monoliths arranged in series within a reaction zone; (b) at least one platinum group metal or catalytically-active compound thereof; and (c) at least one nonprecious Group VIII metal oxide or aluminate; the arrangement of active material favoring exposure to ozone of the platinum group metal component over the nonprecious Group VIII metal oxide or aluminate and wherein about 1.0-7.00 T.O./ft 3 Pd or higher is utilized in conjunction with NiO in a weight ratio of 1.0:0.5-5.0.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
