However, undesirable results such as large formation of SO_(2) and catalyst deactivation inevitably occur, due to the temperature rise of fixed reaction bed caused by the exothermic reaction. Catalyst with high activity in wide operating temperature window, especially in high temperature range, is urgently needed. In this paper, a series of copper-substituted hexaaluminate catalysts (LaCu_(x), x = 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5) were prepared and investigated for the H_(2)S selective oxidation reaction at high temperature conditions (300-550℃). The LaCu_(1) catalyst exhibited excellent catalytic performance and great stability, which was attributed to the best reductive properties and proper pore structure.
