Abstract:
An aircraft environmental control system includes a catalytic converter having ozone-destroying capability. A surface of the catalytic converter provides an un-anodized layer (24), and is washcoated to form a washcoat layer (26). An ozone-destroying catalyst (28) is impregnated in the washcoat layer. The catalyst may include one or more metals. For example, a bimetallic catalyst may include a precious metal and a transition metal.
