G. Avgouropoulos et al., CuO-CeO2 mixed oxide catalysts for the selective oxidation of carbon monoxide in excess hydrogen, CATAL LETT, 73(1), 2001, pp. 33-40
A series of mixed oxide CuO-CeO2 catalysts were prepared by coprecipitation
and tested for the selective oxidation of carbon monoxide in the presence
of excess hydrogen. These catalysts were found to be very active and except
ionally selective for this reaction and exhibited a good resistance towards
CO2 and H2O. The catalytic performance of these non-noble metal containing
catalysts is compared with that of other selective CO oxidation catalysts
reported in literature.
