Ag/AC catalysts, after reduction in H2 at low temperatures (≤200 ℃) following heat treatment in He at 200 ℃ (He200H200), exhibited the best catalytic properties. Temperature-programmed desorption (TPD), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) results indicated that silver oxides were produced during heat treatment in He at 200 ℃ which were reduced to metal silver nanoparticles in H2 at low temperatures (≤200 ℃), simultaneously generating the adsorbed water/OH. CO conversion was enhanced 40% after water treatment following heat treatment in He at 600 ℃. These results imply that the metal silver nanoparticles are the active species and the adsorbed water/OH has noticeable promotion effects on CO oxidation. However, the promotion effect is still limited compared to gold catalysts under the similar conditions, which may be the reason of low selectivity to CO oxidation in PROX over silver catalysts. The reported Ag/AC-S-He catalyst after He200H200 treatment displayed similar PROX of CO reaction properties to Ag/SiO2. This means that Ag/AC catalyst is also an efficient low-temperature CO oxidation catalyst.展开更多

The structure prop-erties of the catalysts were characterized by XRD, TEM, H2-TPR, XPS and Raman spectra, indicating the strong interactions between Cu and Co mixed oxides as well as between metal oxides and MWCNT support. The catalytic performance of CO removal in a H2-rich stream was examined. In contrast to the single Cu and Co catalyst, the unique performance was ob-served for Cu-Co composite catalysts, which features an unusual reaction pathway through the combination of CO preferential oxidation and CO methanation especially at high reac-tion temperature. The optimal catalyst with Cu/Co ratio of 1/8 can achieve the complete CO conversion in a wider temperature range of 150-250 ℃ under the space velocity as high as 120 L/(h·g), which demonstrates a promising catalyst for the e ective CO removal in a H2-rich stream.展开更多
