Question

Catalyst for hydrogen production from water gas shift reaction

Answer 1

The water-gas shift reaction(WGSR) describes thereaction of carbon monoxide and water vapor to form carbon dioxide and hydrogen(the mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen (notwater) is known as water gas): CO + H2O ⇌ CO2 + H.

Answer 2

Answer:

The iron oxide-based catalysts, Fe2O3, are well known in high temperature water-gas shift reaction (350–450°C) and are generally doped with chromium oxide, Cr2O3, which prevents the sintering of iron oxide crystallites
