Process for the selective catalytic oxidation of carbon monoxide in the presence of olefin monomers without appreciable oxidation of such monomers. According to this process, a gaseous waste stream containing carbon monoxide, olefin monomers, and a variety of other agents, is contacted with a catalytically effective amount of copper chromite, preferably in an oxygen enriched environment, at temperatures in the range from about 200 DEG C. to about 325 DEG C. The contact time of the stream with the catalyst bed can vary within broad limits, and the duration of which will vary inversely with the temperature of the catalyst bed.
