Patent ·
OSTI ID:7274080
A catalyst for removing nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and hydrocarbons in exhaust gases is described. The catalyst is prepared by supporting copper and nickel on a carrier and then further supporting at least two components selected from the group consisting of iridium, rhodium, and ruthenium. The atomic weight ratio of copper to nickel is 0.2 to 5, the atomic weight ratio of the sum of copper and nickel to the sum of at least two components selected from the group consisting of iridium, rhodium, and ruthenium is 10 to 100,000, and the total weight of copper and nickel is 10 to 200 g per liter of the catalyst.
