Abstract
â¶ Catalytic microreactor system is used efficiently to remove bromate ions from water. â¶ Carbon nanofiber (CNF) supported ruthenium (Ru) catalyst reduced bromate ions efficiently. â¶ Open structure of CNF provides better accessibility to Ru active sites than in case of microporous activated carbon. â¶ Formation of inactive Ru(OH)x phase and sintering cause catalyst deactivation. â¶ Use of higher alcohols give stabler activity of Ru/CNF catalyst in bromate reduction.
