摘要
CuO-CeO2 catalysts have been proposed as a promising candidate catalytic system for CO removal from reformed fuels via selective oxidation. In this work, the performance of CuO-CeO2 catalysts, synthesized via the urea-nitrate combustion method, in the reaction of selective CO oxidation in the presence of H-2 has been investigated. The combustion method was found to be a simple and fast route for the synthesis of ultrafine, nanocrystalline CuO-CeO2 catalysts. The influence of the fuel/oxidant (urea/nitrate) ratio and the Cu content on the catalytic properties of CuO-CeO2 catalysts has been studied and optimal values of these parameters have been determined. Compared to CuO-CeO2 catalysts prepared with other techniques, the catalysts prepared via the combustion method exhibited similar catalytic performance, remaining very active and stable, remarkably selective and with good tolerance towards CO2 and H2O.
