Catalytic oxidation technology is currently considered as a feasible approach to degrade and mineralize volatile organic compounds (VOCs). However, it is still challenging to realize efficient removal of VOCs through catalytic oxidation at room temperature. In our study, a novel flow-through electrocatalytic reactor was designed, composed of porous solid-electrolyte, gas-permeable titanium sub-oxides/titanium-foam (TiSO/Ti-foam) as anode and platinum coated titanium foam (Pt/Ti-foam) as cathode. This device could oxidize nearly 100% of benzene (10 ppm) to carbon dioxide at a current density of...
