Organic material decomposition catalyst and organic material decomposition apparatus

Abstract

An organic material decomposition catalyst that contains BaCO3 and a perovskite composite oxide represented by AxByMzOw, wherein A contains Ba, B contains Zr, and M denotes Mn. A peak intensity I(BaCO3(111)) of BaCO3(111) of the BaCO3 and a peak intensity I(BaZrO3(110)) of a perovskite composite oxide AxByMzOw(110) of the perovskite composite oxide represented by AxByMzOw, each determined by X-ray diffractometry of the organic material decomposition catalyst, have a ratio I(BaCO3(111))/I(BaZrO3(110)) in a range of 0.022 to 0.052. In another aspect, in the perovskite composite oxide represented by AxByMzOw, 1.01≤x≤1.06, 0.1≤z≤0.125, and y+z=1 are satisfied, w denotes a positive value that satisfies electroneutrality, and the organic material decomposition catalyst has a specific surface area in the range of 12.3 to 16.9 m2/g.
