1. A method of thermocatalytic pollution control comprising the steps of:
- passing a target pollutant into a thermocatalytic reactor having at least one catalytic media and at least one heat source; and
converting the target pollutant that passes through the catalytic media to a selected level of destruction and removal efficiency (DRE).

Abstract
A new method for design and scale-up of thermocatalytic processes is disclosed. The method is based on optimizing process energetics by decoupling of the process energetics from the DRE for target contaminants. The technique is applicable to high temperature thermocatalytic reactor design and scale-up. The method is based on the implementation of polymeric and other low-pressure drop support for thermocatalytic media as well as the multifunctional catalytic media in conjunction with a novel rotating fluidized particle bed reactor.
