The catalytic activity measurement for the NO+CO reaction over CuO/CeO2/gam
ma -Al2O3 catalysts at a low-temperature(200 degreesC) shows that the activ
ity is strongly related to ceria loading amount, and both surface dispersed
ceria species and crystalline CeO2 shows a significant enhancement on the
activity. The effect of ceria species is contributed to their promoting the
reduction of copper oxide species.
