Exhaust gas purification catalyst for suppressing hydrogen sulfide evolution, and process for production thereof.

摘要

An exhaust gas purification catalyst for removing carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides from an exhaust gas and suppressing the evolution of hydrogen sulfide comprises a monolithic support and deposited thereon, at least one platinum-group element, active alumina, cerium oxide and germanium oxide. The catalyst is produced by a process which comprises (a) a step of preparing active alumina having a compound of at least one platinum-group element deposited thereon, (b) a step of preparing a slurry comprising the active alumina obtained in step (a), cerium oxide, and germanium oxide, and (c) a step of depositing the slurry on a monolithic support and calcining the support. c
