Detoxication of CWA surrogate of 2-chloro ethyl ethyl sulfide is investigated.
A small amount of Ag2O on Al2O3-base support is sufficient to degrade 2-CEES.
Detoxication conversion >82% in 15 min is achieved for >2.5% Ag2O/Na2SiO3/Al2O3.
Na2SiO3 modified Al2O3 to have the valley-like line pattern for depositing Ag2O.
2-CEES oxidation is initiated from the dominant electronic holes in p-type Ag2O.
