DECOMPOSITION OF DINITROGEN MONOXIDE IN OXYGEN-CONTAINING GASES HAVING A MOISTURE CONTENT

摘要

Palladium on aluminium oxide carrier is very well-suited for decomposing dinitrogen monoxide--contained, e.g., in anaesthetic gases - in oxygen-containing gases having a moisture content of 5--20% H2O (or 5-10% H2O) at temperatures < 450.degree.C. The palladium content of the catalyst preferably is < 2 wt.-% with respect to Al2O3.
