Abstract
CexZr1-xO2 (x=0-1) catalysts were prepared by urea grind combustion method (UGC) and tested for CO preferential oxidation in H2-rich gases. The catalytic performances of CexZr1-xO2-UGC-400 are comparable to CexZr1-xO2-SG-400 and higher than CexZr1-xO2-SA-400. The optimal Ce/Zr molar ratio, calcination temperature and urea addition (R value) for synthesizing CexZr1-xO2 catalysts are Ce/Zr = 4:1, 300 oC and R = 1.0, respectively. Ce0.8Zr0.2O2 catalyst prepared with this route can well adapt the change of gas hourly space velocity (GHSV), and no any obvious change is observed both in CO conversion and O2 selectivity with GHSV increasing from 12000 to 48000 h-1. Both CO conversion and O2 selectivity of Ce0.8Zr0.2O2 maintains relative stability during 72h time-on-stream test.
