Method of Making Supported Copper Adsorbents Having Copper at Selectively Determined Oxidation Levels

摘要

A method of removing O2, CO, H2, mercury, and/or sulfur from a fluid stream using a sorbent comprising metallic copper. The metallic copper is formed from direct reduction of a supported copper oxysalt by exposure to a reducing agent at a temperature of between about 40° C. and about 220° C.
