The first is to provide the experimental data for the oxidation of ammonia over a platinum catalyst in the ppm range which is so obviously missing from the literature. The second is to use these data to obtain a quantitative mathematical description or model of the rate of ammonia oxidation with emphasis on the utilization of this model for design purposes. The third is to study catalyst stability and be able to quantify the deactivation.application/pdfengAmmoniaOxidationDissertation
