Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A CO slip catalyst, for treating an exhaust gas from a lean burn internal combustion engine, is disclosed. The CO slip catalyst comprises palladium and a ceria-containing material. The invention also includes a method for oxidizing excess CO in an exhaust gas, wherein the excess CO results from the periodic contact of an upstream catalyst under rich exhaust conditions. The method comprises contacting the excess CO in the exhaust gas with a CO slip catalyst at a temperature in the range of 100 to 700° C.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. A CO slip catalyst for treating an exhaust gas from a lean burn internal combustion engine, where the CO slip catalyst consists essentially of palladium and a ceria-containing material. 2. The CO slip catalyst of claim 1 , wherein the ceria-containing material comprises ceria, ceria-zirconia, ceria-zirconia-alumina, and mixtures thereof. 3. The CO slip catalyst of claim 2 , wherein the ceria-containing material comprises ceria. 4. The CO slip catalyst of claim 1 , wherein the CO slip catalyst comprises 0.5 to 5 weight percent palladium. 5. The CO slip catalyst of claim 1 , wherein the CO slip catalyst is coated on a substrate. 6. The CO slip catalyst of claim 5 , wherein the substrate is a ceramic substrate or a metallic substrate.
