Could an efficient WGS catalyst be useful in the CO-PrOx reaction?. Applied Catalysis B: Environmental, 150-151, 554-563.0926-3373http://hdl.handle.net/11441/67081This work presents an evaluation of a high performance series of water gas shift (WGS) catalysts in the preferential CO oxidation reaction (PrOx) in order to examine the applicability of the same catalyst for both processes as a first step for coupling both reactions in a single process. Gold based catalysts are applied in an extensive study of the CO-PrOx reaction parameters, such as λ, WHSV, CO concentration and [H2O]/[CO2] ratio in order to obtain the best activity/selectivity balance. CO and H2 oxidation reactions were treated separately in order to establish the degree of CO/H2 oxidation competition. Additionally the catalysts behavior in the CO-PrOx parallel reactions such a WGS and RWGS have been also carried out to analyze their effect on product composition. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.application/pdfengAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/PrOxIron oxideCerium oxideGold catalystsH2 clean-upinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess10.1016/j.apcatb.2014.01.001
