Organic-inorganic composite catalyst, air purification device including the organic-inorganic composite catalyst, and method of regenerating the organic-inorganic composite catalyst

Abstract

An organic-inorganic composite catalyst wherein the organic-inorganic composite catalyst includes a porous carbonaceous particle, a first compound; and a metal oxide particle, wherein the first compound and the metal oxide particle are supported on the porous carbonaceous particle, the first compound contains a polar functional group, an anion, or a combination thereof, the metal oxide is represented by the formula MO, wherein 0<a≤4, 0<b≤5, and M is a metal of Groups 2 to 16 of the Periodic Table of Elements, or a combination thereof, and the organic-inorganic composite catalyst is configured to remove a second compound from an unpurified air flow including the second compound.
