Abstract
The preferential oxidation of CO in H2-rich environments (CO-PROX) is one of the most promising strategies for purifying H2. However, developing catalysts with low noble metal loadings that can effectively operate within a wide temperature range remains a significant challenge. Here, we synthesized ensembled Ptδ+ species on Beta zeolite (0.36 wt % Pt) through a reduction treatment. This catalyst achieved 100% CO conversion in CO-PROX across the temperature range of 25°C–220°C. The outstanding performance of this catalyst originates from the temperature-dependent dual mechanisms. Specifically, the ensembled Ptδ+ species weaken the adsorption strength of CO and enhance activation in O2 at elevated temperatures. Moreover, these Ptδ+ species play a crucial role in facilitating the adsorption and dissociation of H2 at lower temperatures, enabling it to react with O2 and form –OH species. These –OH species readily react with CO, overcoming the challenges associated with O2 activation.
