Abstract
Alumina is well-known as an effective catalyst for the title reaction. The present study revealed that the activity of an alumina catalyst for the reaction largely depended on its type. A critical factor affecting the activity of an alumina was neither the surface area nor pore structure, but the purity; the higher the purity, the higher the activity. Active alumina catalysts showed high activity for both the oxidation of NO to NO2 and the reduction of NO2 by ethene.
