“…Copper chromite catalysts have been studied in detail for CO oxidation. The studies have been attributed to the catalytic activity and stability tests [225,226], postulating mechanisms [227], characterization of catalysts [228,229], rapid evaluation of the catalysts [230], search for the active sites on the catalysts [231,232], kinetics of the reaction [228,233], catalysts deactivation [229,234], etc. Pantaleo et al [235] reported the catalytic tests in CO oxidation indicated a synergetic effect between copper and chromium in the mixed oxides supported on silica and calcined at 500 0 C. Xavier et al [236] found that Cu-Cr based catalysts are effective for CO oxidation at lower temperatures.…”
