Abstract
Synthesis and Activity Evaluation of Ce-Mn-Cu Mixed Oxide Catalyst for Selective Oxidation of CO in Automobile Engine Exhaust: Effect of Ce/Mn Loading Content on Catalytic Activity
Highlights
With an increase in the concentration of vehicles on the road, environmental problems have become a huge issue nowadays
Scanning electron micrographs (SEM) revealed that the co-precipitation method used in current research for the synthesis of the catalyst, produced particles of 400–500 nm radius as shown in Fig 6 (d)

Summary
With an increase in the concentration of vehicles on the road, environmental problems have become a huge issue nowadays. It has been verified that synthesizing the composite like mixture in oxide matrix by adding another base metal increases the chemical and physical catalytic properties of catalyst and enhance its oxygen storage capacity [9]. Cu species formed the solid solution with Ce-Mn-O that means that they were well dispersed to perform the high efficiency in the catalytic process.
