| Abstract | This study demonstrates depleted uranium as a remarkable heterogeneous catalyst for the oxidation of HCl to Cl2. This reaction comprises a sustainable approach to valorise byproduct HCl streams in the chemical industry. Bulk α-U3O8 showed an outstanding stability against chlorination, which is crucial for its durability in catalytic tests. UO2 and γ-UO3 transformed into α-U3O8 under reaction conditions. Uranium deposition on different carriers by dry impregnation concluded the superiority of zirconia as support. HAADF-STEM investigations revealed that the uranium oxide on the surface of this carrier is present in the form of a film-like nanostructure with a thickness ranging from a monolayer to 1 nm as well as atomic dispersion. The effect of variables (temperature, feed O2/HCl ratio, metal loading, and Cl2 co-feeding) on the performance of U3O8/ZrO2 has been studied. The HCl conversion over this catalyst increased with reaction time as a likely consequence of in situ re-dispersion of the original uranium phase into atomically dispersed UOx. As demonstrated by H2-TPR, the uranium in the generated UOx phase is more oxidised than in the original U3O8. Such a highly dispersed active phase is produced faster in the uncalcined sample. The extraordinary stable Cl2 production over U3O8/ZrO2 at 773 K for 100 h on stream indicates its potential for application in high-temperature HCl oxidation. Under these conditions, other known catalytic materials suffer from significant deactivation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
