<p>The catalytic activity of Cu, Rh, and Rh/Cu, catalysts supported on Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, CeO<sub>2</sub> and CeO<sub>2</sub>/Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> in reactions of CO oxidation and NO reduction has been studied in temperature-programmed regime. Addition of Cu to Rh catalysts decreases temperature at which 5 and 50% degree of conversion, while end of reaction temperature is not influenced by presence of Cu. The presence of Cu has positive effect on the activity of Rh containing catalysts in the low temperature region. Cu has noticeable promoting effect mainly for the catalytic activity in the reaction of CO oxidation and in smaller extent for the reaction of NO reduction. Preliminary redox treatment of the catalysts decreases the light off temperature in the reactions of CO oxidation and in NO reduction. Thermal treatment at temperatures up to 973 K does not have sensible effect on the catalytic activities of all studied catalysts. Calcination at 1073 K, however, strongly decreases the catalytic activity of Rh/Cu/CeO<sub>2</sub>/Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> catalysts.</p>

A novel and well-organized study for the synthesis and enhanced catalytic activity of Au/TiO2catalysts has been developed. A momentous improvement in the catalytic activity of Au/TiO2in CO oxidation and preferential oxidation reaction by thermal treatment has been studied. Au/TiO2catalyst (Au (1 wt.%) supported on TiO2) was prepared by conventional deposition-precipitation method with NaOH followed by washing, drying and calcination in air at 400 °C for 4 h. Thermal treatment of Au/TiO2was performed at 450 °C under 0.05 mTorr. The activity of the catalysts has been examined in the reaction of CO oxidation and preferential oxidation (PROX) at 25-250 °C. The catalytic performance was found to be strongly affected by thermal treatment of the prepared catalyst prior to the reaction. Heat treatment after Au deposition has a positive effect on the CO oxidation performance. This is attributed to the introduction of a stronger interaction between the oxide and Au which improves the catalytic activity.

Pd catalyst (Pd/Ce<sub>0.7</sub>Zr<sub>0.3</sub>O<sub>2</sub>) in an electric field exhibits extremely high three-way catalytic activity (TWC: NO-C<sub>3</sub>H<sub>6</sub>-CO-O<sub>2</sub>-H<sub>2</sub>O). By applying an electric field to the semiconductor catalyst, low-temperature operation of TWC can be achieved even at 473 K by virtue of the activated surface-lattice oxygen.

CuO-based catalysts are usually used for CO oxidation owing to their low cost and excellent catalytic activities. In this study, a series of metal oxide (La2O3, Fe2O3, PrO2, Sm2O3, and MnO2)-doped CuO-based catalysts with mesoporous Ce0.8Zr0.2O2 support were simply prepared by the incipient impregnation method and used directly as catalysts for CO catalytic oxidation. These mesoporous catalysts were systematically characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), N2 physisorption, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy-dispersed spectroscopy (EDS) mapping, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and H2 temperature programmed reduction (H2-TPR). It was found that the CuO and the dopants were highly dispersed among the mesoporous framework via the incipient impregnation method, and the strong metal framework interaction had been formed. The effects of the types of the dopants and the loading amounts of the dopants on the low-temperature catalytic performances were carefully studied. It was concluded that doped transition metal oxides could regulate the oxygen mobility and reduction ability of catalysts, further improving the catalytic activity. It was also found that the high dispersion of rare earth metal oxides (PrO2, Sm2O3) was able to prevent the thermal sintering and aggregation of CuO-based catalysts during the process of calcination. In addition, their presence also evidently improved the reducibility and significantly reduced the particle size of the CuO active sites for CO oxidation. The results demonstrated that the 15CuO-3Fe2O3/M-Ce80Zr20 catalyst with 3 wt. % of Fe2O3 showed the best low-temperature catalytic activity toward CO oxidation. Overall, the present Fe2O3-doped CuO-based catalysts with mesoporous nanocrystalline Ce0.8Zr0.2O2 solid solution as support were considered a promising series of catalysts for low-temperature CO oxidation.

Platinum nanoparticles (Pt NPs) immobilized on a N-doped graphene@Al2O3 hybrid support (Al2O3@CNx) were synthesized and exhibit superior catalytic activity for low temperature CO oxidation, due to a strong metal–support interaction between Pt NPs and the N-doped.

The catalytic properties of nanostructured Au and their physical origin were investigated by using the low-temperature CO oxidation as a test reaction. In order to distinguish between structural effects (structure–activity correlations) and bimetallic/bifunctional effects, unsupported nanoporous gold (NPG) samples prepared from different Au alloys (AuAg, AuCu) by selective leaching of a less noble metal (Ag, Cu) were employed, whose structure (surface area, ligament size) as well as their residual amount of the second metal were systematically varied by applying different potentials for dealloying. The structural and chemical properties before and after 1000 min reaction were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The catalytic behavior was evaluated by kinetic measurements in a conventional microreactor and by dynamic measurements in a temporal analysis of products (TAP) reactor. The data reveal a clear influence of the surface contents of residual Ag and Cu species on both O2 activation and catalytic activity, while correlations between activity and structural parameters such as surface area or ligament/crystallite size are less evident. Consequences for the mechanistic understanding and the role of the nanostructure in these NPG catalysts are discussed.
