An oxidation catalyst for treating an exhaust gas produced by a diesel engine comprises a catalytic region and a substrate, wherein the catalytic region comprises a catalytic material comprising: bismuth (Bi) or an oxide thereof; a Group 8 metal or an oxide thereof; a platinum group metal (PGM) selected from the group consisting of (i) platinum (Pt), (ii) palladium (Pd) and (iii) platinum (Pt) and palladium (Pd); and a support material, which comprises alumina, silica, a mixed oxide of alumina and a refractory oxide, a mixed oxide of silica and a refractory oxide, a composite oxide of alumina and a refractory oxide, a composite oxide of silica and a refractory oxide, alumina doped with a refractory oxide or silica doped with a refractory oxide.

In various implementations, systems and processes may generate hydrogen peroxide using a catalyst that includes titanium dioxide, silver, antimony, copper, and/or rhodium. The systems and processes may utilize an air stream in the presence of UV light and a catalyst to generate hydrogen peroxide. The generated hydrogen peroxide may be utilized to disinfect air and surfaces.

Disclosed are catalysts, methods, and systems for the bi-reforming of hydrocarbons. The method includes contacting a catalyst material with a reactant feed that includes hydrogen (H.sub.2), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO.sub.2), methane (CH.sub.4), and water (H.sub.2O) to produce a product stream that has a H.sub.2/CO molar ratio of 1.4:1 to 2:1. The catalyst can have a metal oxide core, a redox metal oxide layer deposited on a surface of the metal oxide core, and a catalytically active metal deposited on the surface of the redox metal oxide layer. A dopant can be included in the redox metal oxide layer. The catalyst can have a corm-shell type structure.

The present invention relates to a catalyst for aminating a polyether polyol and preparation method thereof and a method of preparing a polyetheramine using the catalyst. The catalyst has active components and a carrier. The active components are Ni, Cu, and Pd. The method of preparing the catalyst comprises the following steps: using a metal solution or a metal melt impregnated carrier, obtaining a catalyst precursor; and drying and calcinating the obtained catalyst precursor, so as to obtain a catalyst. By introducing the active component Pd in the catalyst, the present invention clearly improves selectivity of an amination catalyst with respect to a preaminated product, and increases raw material conversion rate.
