The effects of cerium on the catalytic properties of gamma-alumina-supported palladium for the reduction of nitric oxide were studied with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and temperature-programmed reduction (TPR). The reduction of nitric oxide on palladium catalysts is inhibited significantly by hydrocarbon. However, the reduction of nitric oxide was improved by the addition of cerium to the catalysts.
