Abstract:In the present paper, the effects of metal promoters (M = Fe, Co, and Cu) in Pt/ M x Zr y O z catalysts and the influence of CO 2 and H 2 O on the CO oxidation activity (PROX) were investigated. To do that, characterizations of catalyst structures and surfaces were performed and reported here. The catalyst Pt/Fe x Zr y O z (PFeZ) was the most active at low temperatures among the analyzed ones. The addition of platinum caused strong interaction with the mixed oxide, affecting the structure and the surface compo… Show more
