The regeneration of isopropanol (IPA) and/or acetone saturated TiO2 surface by ozone is investigated. TiO2 catalyst is placed downstream a dielectric barrier discharge and is subsequently exposed to ozone considered as the main oxidative species generated by non-thermal plasma and able to interact with the material surface at room temperature. The oxidation of isopropanol and/or acetone is monitored using two parallel and complementary infrared diagnostics: (1) Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy for the analysis of the gas phase composition; and (2) Diffuse Reflectance Infrared Fourier Transform Spectroscopy for the in situ analysis of the adsorbent/catalyst surface. In this study, the pollutant is first adsorbed on the TiO2 surface, the plasma being switched off. The irreversibly adsorbed amounts of isopropanol and acetone have been respectively quantified as 5.3 mu mol/m(2) and 1.9 mu mol/m(2). In a second step, the plasma is switched on to regenerate the surface by mineralization of the adsorbed organic species. A 70-min plasma phase, with approximately 20 ppm of ozone constantly flowing through the adsorbent bed yields 8.5 nmol and 8.9 nmol of CO2 per injected joule of energy for isopropanol and acetone saturated surfaces, respectively. Acetone has been evidenced as the main oxidation intermediate of isopropanol on TiO2 surface. It has been proven that the complete oxidation of isopropanol and acetone is mainly limited by the acetone oxidation rate. Competitive adsorption on the surface of the catalyst between both compounds has been studied. Results obtained are compared with those observed in the photocatalytic oxidation of the same species.
