Abstract
The present invention provides a catalyst and a process for the selective oxidation of carbon monoxide (CO) to produce carbon dioxide gas (CO2). The process provides a process which selectively oxidizes CO to CO2 in presence of excess hydrogen. The process provides a selective oxidation of CO to CO2 gas over Cu/CeO2 catalyst between temperature range 40° C. to 90° C. at atmospheric pressure in presence of excess H2, H2O and CO2. The process provides a CO conversion up to 100% without deactivation till 100 h.
