Abstract

This review summarizes the results reported in the literature on the water gas shift (WGS) over goldcontaining catalysts. Attention is focused on the influence of the preparation method and the nature of the support on the gold dispersion and WGS activity. Special emphasis is paid to the enhanced reducibility of the metal oxide support in the presence of gold. Some aspects of the reaction mechanism of the WGS are discussed.
