Electrochemical catalysts were used for environmental applications, such as the clean production of energy from propane and propene combustion, the elimination of VOC’s like propene and the NOx abatement All the selected electrochemical catalysts were composed of a Pt film deposited on YSZ, NASICON or CGO. It was found that all these chemical reactions can be electropromoted. Moreover, the reaction rates can be in-situ tuned by applying a polarisation. Furthermore, the selectivity of Pt-based electrochemical catalysts can be modified in order to avoid the formation of pollutant. Finally, EPOC can improve the lifetime of a catalyst by inhibiting its poisoning by carbonaceous species.
