<p>A catalytic reactor is provided for the decomposition of ozone in air. The reactor comprises a core structure (10) having an inlet end effective for receiving a flow of ozone-containing air and an outlet end effective for discharging the ozone-containing air therefrom. The core structure is made of a catalytically-active metal alloy which is effective for decomposing at least a portion of the ozone present in the air as the ozone-containing air flows between the inlet end and outlet end of the core structure. The catalytically-active alloy comprises a silver-containing metal alloy and may comprise an alloy having silver and copper as the principle constituents. The catalytically-active alloy may optionally be thermally activated for use in low temperature applications. The core structure may be configured so as to provide a plurality of tortuous flowpaths between the inlet and outlet ends of the core structure to promote turbulent flow of the ozone-containing air.</p> |
