The obtained Pt/γ- Al2O3 catalyst activity was tested after characterization (SEM-EDAX observation, BET measurement, permeability assessment) in the catalytic oxidation of selected volatile organic compound (VOC) i.e. propane, fed in mixture of oxygen. The VOC conversion (nearly 90%) obtained by varying the operating temperature showed that flow-through membrane reactor might do better in the abatement of VOCs.}, journal = {International Journal of Environmental and Ecological Engineering}, volume = {9}, number = {6}, year = {2015}, pages = {635 - 638}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/10001436}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/102}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 102, 2015}, }
