Catalytic Oxidation of CO and CH 4 as Well as Mixture of CO and CH 4 with Nano and Micro Fe 2 O 3

Abstract

The nano and micro Fe₂O₃ were evaluated for their performances in catalyzing the simultaneous oxidation of CO and CH₄, two typical air pollutants generated during some fuel processing and utilizations. The major factors investigated for their effects on oxidation include temperature, space time, and concentrations of CO and CH₄. Experimental results indicated that nano Fe₂O₃ is much more effective than micro Fe₂O₃ in catalyzing the oxidation of CO and CH₄.
