  • Catalyst for generating oxidized mercury for testing mercury continuous emission monitors (CEM)
    Patent number: 7829047
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a catalyst, system, and process for oxidizing mercury. The catalyst can include a substrate and a layer attached to at least part of the substrate. The layer contains a noble metal and has an average thickness of less than 100 nanometers. The substrate can be a plurality of glass fibers that provides for a relatively high surface area for the layer to be attached to. In the alternative, the substrate can be a porous substrate that provides for a high surface area for the layer to be attached to.
