Dichlorodifluoromethane (CCl2F2, 1% in He) decomposition with simultaneous halogen fixation by vanadium oxide supported on magnesium oxide was studied at 723 K in a flow apparatus. The pretreatment condition and vanadium loading of supported vanadium oxide samples affected the CCl2F2 decomposition efficiency. Through characterization studies (XRD, IR, Raman, and XPS) and reference experiments, Mg 3(VO4)2 was revealed to be the active species to initiate CCl2F2 decomposition, leading to MgF 2, MgCl2, and CO2 formation. The model experiments also suggested a detailed mechanism that VOCl3 was formed from Mg3(VO4)2 by a reaction with CCl 2F2 or the major intermediate compound CCl4, and that VOCl3 reacted with MgO to regenerate Mg3(VO 4)2 and to promote chlorine fixation as MgCl2.
