Resumen:
The presence of hydrocarbons in industrial processes as well as their emission to the atmosphere is a problem that can be treated by catalytic oxidation processes.The catalysts developed are usually produced in powder form but they are difficult to use in real conditions due to the high flow rates that generate pressure drop problems. To minimize this problem, monolithic structures are used in which the active material is deposited. These structured materials also have the advantages of better heat transfer and greater chemical and mechanical stability. In addition, the use of wastes to produce new materials is an alternative to reduce the environmental impact.In this work, cobalt catalysts were developed using eggshell supported monolithic structures, and their performance in the oxidation of toluene under different concentrations of reagents in the feed stream was studied.
