To establish the kinetic equation and mechanism for deep oxidation of CO, p-xylene and their mixture on the metal oxide catalysts with the optimal compositions (10%CuO/γ-Al₂O₃ and 10%CuO+20%CeO₂/γ-Al₂O₃).

Two catalysts of optimum composition (10%CuO/γ-Al₂O₃ and 10%CuO+20%CeO₂/γ-Al₂O₃) have been obtained. The physico - chemical properties of the catalysts was studied by XRD, SEM, TEM, TPR, H₂ chemical adsorbsion and BET adsorption methods. The kinetics of the reaction has been investigated in a flow-circulation sealed glass system; data on the mechanism of the process were obtained with the use of an unsteady state method and FT-IR. In the research results the highly-active catalysts have been obtained and kinetics of reaction deep oxidation of CO, p-xylene and mixtures has been established. The mechanism of deep oxidation of CO has been proposed. Research results are presented in 01 paper in the international journal, 01 paper in the Vietnamese journal, 01 paper in the proceeding of international Conference, 02 reports in the international and national conferences, 01 master and 01 graduated student also have been trained.
