Process for producing a catalytically active material, catalytic converter having a catalytically active material produced in this manner, and use of the catalytic converter to break down dioxins and/or furans

Abstract

To produce a catalytically active material, titanium dioxide, together with an oxide or with a dissolved compound of tungsten and/or vanadium, is processed into a shapeable material. the shapeable material is dried to form a shaped body, and the shaped body is calcined. After the calcining, the shaped body is additionally impregnated with a dissolved compound of titanium and vanadium and is dried again. A catalytically active material of this type has a high catalytic activity with regard to breaking down dioxins and/or furans even in a temperature range of below 250° C. The catalytically active material is particularly suitable for producing dioxin and/or furan catalytic converters.
