Claim:
1. A system comprising: a catalytic membrane reactor comprising a heating element in thermal communication with a bundle of tubular inorganic membranes and a housing having a gas inlet and a gas outlet and containing the bundle of tubular inorganic membranes, wherein the catalytic membrane reactor is configured such that, when in operation to catalytically remove gas phase contaminants from a gas, the gas flows, in order, into the housing through the gas inlet, into a bore of the tubular inorganic membranes, through a wall of the tubular inorganic membranes, and out of the housing through the gas outlet, wherein each of the tubular inorganic membranes comprise a macroporous tubular substrate with an oxidative catalyst and a microporous layer disposed on a bore side of the macroporous tubular substrate.
