Decomposition of Chlorofluorocarbons by a honeycomb packing with Pt/WO3/TiO2 catalyst heated directly with an electromagnetic induced heating system was investigated at temperature of 400°C. The decomposition of CFCs in the heating system was found to give higher conversion than in a conventional heating method, which can be attributed to a higher controllability of reaction temperature in the system. The characterization of catalysts showed that the amount of coke formed on the catalyst after the reaction in the system was lower than in the conventional heating system.
