The oxidation of CO and hydrocarbons over noble metal catalysts
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the reaction kinetics of CO, C 3 H 6, 1-hexene, and toluene under excess O 2 and found that the olefin oxidation is strongly self-inhibited by HC and more than first-order in O 2, whereas the opposite was found for Rh.
Journal ArticleDOI
The oxidation of hydrocarbons and CO over metal oxides: IV. Perovskite-type oxides
TL;DR: Several metal oxides of the perovskite structure have been prepared and used as catalyst for the oxidation of CO and C2H4 as mentioned in this paper, and the reaction rates are positive fractional order with respect to both oxygen and the oxidant, and are slightly inhibited by H2O.
Journal ArticleDOI
The oxidation of hydrocarbons and CO over metal oxides: III. Co3O4
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the catalytic performance of CO, C2H4, and Co3O4 supported on alumina and found that the specific catalytic activity over the CoAl2O4 powder is the highest among the various metal oxides previously studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
The oxidation of hydrocarbons and CO over metal oxides: I. NiO crystals
Yung-Fang Yu Yao,J.T. Kummer +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, NiO microcrystals exposing predominantly their (111) face as the catalyst were used to study the catalytic reaction of CO, C2H4, C 2H6, C3H8, C4H8-1, trans-C4H 8-2 and i-C 4H88 at 200-400 °C.
