What catalyst is effective in the destruction of atmospheric ozone O3?

Chlorine has been found at high altitudes. Oxygen can be bonded with chlorine, since it is more electronegative than chlorine. Under solar irradiation present at the elevation of the "ozone layer", chlorine can be excited to take an oxygen atom from the ozone molecule, and later yield that oxygen atom up to a passing oxygen atom that might otherwise make ozone. It can even pass the lone oxygen on to another ozone molecule, forming 2O2 molecules. The chlorine is then in a receptive state to do it again.

Is it a good idea to mix sodium and chlorine to create sodium chloride?

Firstly you have to go through two precursor steps before this can be achieved as putting sodium and chlorine together straight away isn't advisable.Sodium can be put into water to create sodium hydroxide and chlorine can be reacted with hydrogen to produce hydrogen chloride. These two reactants can then be used to create sodium chloride.2Na + 2H2O ---> 2NaOH + H2.H2 + Cl2 ---> 2HClNaOH + HCl ---> NaCl + H2ONotice that if you did add sodium and chlorine together in situ, then just by adding water to the situ mix, then the reaction could look to be self sustaining as long as you had enough sodium and chlorine. Therefore water would be considered as a catalyst for this reaction as it starts the reaction but it always returns to its original form, the classic definition of a catalyst.
