The preparation of metal modified catalysts can involve several techniques:
Impregnation: This method involves soaking the catalyst support in a solution containing the metal precursor, followed by drying and calcination. Co-precipitation: Metals and support materials are precipitated together from a solution, forming a mixed metal catalyst. Ion Exchange: Metal ions are exchanged with ions on the surface of the catalyst support. Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD): Metal atoms are deposited on the catalyst surface from a gaseous phase.
