Abstract: 
The Preferential CO Oxidation (CO-PROX) is a promising catalytic strategy to remove CO residual content from H2-rich streams. Mixed copper and cerium oxide catalysts are materials that display an excellent performance towards COPROX reaction by means of synergistic interaction the copper and cerium-rich phases. Alternatively, mixed manganese oxides are proposed as active supports with very positive catalytic features when these are loaded with copper species. This Project Thesis comprises a detailed study on the implementation of copper oxide – manganese oxide catalysts in CO-PROX reaction and the establishment of a critical comparison with regards to the consolidated cerium-based catalysts.
