The actual concentration of the total VOCs (TVOCs) that was measured in a smoking room was -2,000 mu g m(3), toluene, benzene, and acetaldehyde were also obtained in high concentrations. An O-3 oxidative decomposition catalyst, MnOx/TiO2, synthesized by chemical vapor condensation (CVC) (MnOx/CVC-TiO2) was subjected to decomposition experiments, at room temperature (25 degrees C), utilizing acetaldehyde as the target material. The catalyst-coated filter was installed as a fixed bed, and after supplying O-3, at a concentration of 25 ppm, it was confirmed that the catalyst had facilitated the complete decomposition of 10 ppm of acetaldehyde. Next, a decomposition experiment was conducted for TVOCs with a prototype smoke purifier, which employed the catalyst-coated filter, in a 1-m(3) bench-scale chamber. The initial concentration of TVOC, 4,300 mu g m(3), was reduced to 171 mu g m(3) after 30 min (treatment efficiency, 96%). Finally, the treatment performance of the practical smoke purifier was tested in a real smoking room (61.9 m(3)). The initial TVOC concentration was reduced from 2,229 to 493 mu g m(3) after 30 min with a removal efficiency of 80%. Moreover,-70% of the acetaldehyde concentration was also decomposed.
