We have investigated the preferential oxidation (PROX) of carbon monoxide at Pt/mordenite (Pt/M), Fe/mordenite (Fe/M), and Pt–Fe/mordenite (Pt–Fe/M) for a purification of reformates to supply polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs). Pt–Fe/M exhibited remarkable PROX activity up to an extremely high space velocity (i.e., ca. 100% selectivity, SV=∼105h−1) even at 50 °C, although Pt/M and Fe/M had negligibly small PROX activity. CO, H2, and O2chemisorption measurements demonstrated that Pt sites act as adsorption sites for CO and/or H2and Fe (dominantly FeO) sites only for O2, so that the addition of Fe to Pt/M can preserve O2adsorption sites for the PROX reaction even in CO/excess H2gas flow. The poor reactivity of Pt/M and Fe/M can be ascribed to the lack of CO and/or O2adsorption as the essential requisite for the Langmuir–Hinshelwood mechanism. We propose the so-called “bifunctional mechanism” for the distinctive performance at Pt–Fe/M, where the Pt site acts as a CO adsorption site and the Fe site acts as an O2dissociative-adsorption site and enhances the surface reaction between the reactants on the neighboring sites.
