Oxidation process and catalyst for use therefor
This patent describes a process for the oxidative removal of CO and hydrocarbons from SO{sub x} containing waste gases. It comprises contacting the waste gas in an oxidizing atmosphere at a relatively low temperature below about 500{degrees} C. in the presence of an effective amount of a sulfur-resistant catalyst consisting essentially of a ceramic or metallic monolith which has a coating consisting essentially of at least one member of the group consisting of silica, zirconia, titania and zeolite and a mixture of platinum and rhodium or platinum and palladium deposited thereon, the coating having a surface area about 20 m{sup 2}/g to about 100 m{sup 2}/g, the total amount of platinum and rhodium or platinum and palladium comprising about 0.005 to about 2% by weight of the catalyst composition and gas hourly space velocity of the gas contacting the catalyst being about 10,000 to about 200,000 hr{sup {minus}1}.
