Copper Catalysts Supported on CeMnO2 for CO Oxidation in Hydrogen-Rich Gas Streams

N. Hoshyar; A. Irankhah Irankhah; M. Jafari

Volume 12, Issue 3 , July 2015, Pages 3-14

Abstract
  e"> The CeMnO2 supports were prepared via co-precipitation method by ammonia as precipitating agent. The CuO/CeO2 and CuO/Ce(1-x)MnxO2 (x=0.1, 0.3 and 0.5) catalysts were synthesized by wet impregnation method. The physicochemical properties of the prepared CuO/Ce(1-x)MnxO2 catalysts were characterized ...  Read More
