Abstract
Abstract Refractory base metal titanate catalysts showing considerable activity in the oxidation of hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide, comprising titaniferous crystal phases of spinel, ilmenite and/or pseudobrookite structure which consist essentially, in weight percent on the oxide basis, of about 15-85% TiO2, 15-70% M'''' O wherein M'''' is Mn 2, Co 2, Fe 2 or Cu 2, and 0-60% M2''''''O3 wherein M'''''' is Al 3, Fe 3, Cr 3, Mn 3 or Co 3, are disclosed.
