The Mitigation of CO Present in the Water–Gas Shift Reformate Gas over IR-TiO<sub>2</sub> and IR-ZrO<sub>2</sub> Catalysts

CO hydrogenation and oxidation were conducted over Ir supported on TiO<sub>2</sub> and ZrO<sub>2</sub> catalysts using a feed mimicking the water–gas shift reformate stream. The influence of the support interaction with Ir and the catalysts’ redox and CO chemisorption propert...
