Water–gas shift catalyst development for energy efficient applications

The water–gas shift (WGS) is a reversible, moderately exothermic reaction (1) and is used for the production of hydrogen from CO rich gas streams (synthesis gas). CO + H2O ? CO2 + H2 ?H°= –41 kJ mol?1 (1) This research has focused on the catalyst development of water–gas shift (WGS) reaction and understanding the catalytic activity contributions...
