Embodiment 1
[0069] (Synthesis of Cu / Zn / Zr / Ce / Y)
[0070] A catalyst with an atomic ratio of copper, zinc, zirconium, cerium and yttrium of 55:10:15:10:10 was prepared by gel oxalate co-precipitation using 20% excess oxalic acid. Two separate solutions were prepared (i) nitrate mixture (6.27 g copper(II) nitrate trihydrate, 1.36 g zinc nitrate hexahydrate and 1.14 g zirconyl(IV) nitrate hydrate, 0.93 g cerium(III) nitrate hexahydrate hydrate and 1.29 g of yttrium (III) nitrate hexahydrate) and (ii) oxalic acid (6.12 g) dissolved in ethanol. Under vigorous stirring, the two solutions were slowly mixed at room temperature. The formed precipitate was centrifuged at 5000 rpm for 15 minutes and then dried overnight at 110° C. to form a catalyst precursor. The catalyst precursor was calcined at 350° C. for 4 hours to obtain the mixed metal catalyst of the present invention.
Embodiment 2
[0072] (Synthesis of Cu / Zn / Zr / Ce / Y)
[0073] A catalyst with an atomic ratio of copper, zinc, zirconium, cerium and yttrium of 60:20:10:5:5 was prepared by co-precipitation of gel oxalate using 20% excess oxalic acid. Two separate solutions were prepared (i) nitrate mixture (6.84 g copper(II) nitrate trihydrate, 2.73 g zinc nitrate hexahydrate and 0.76 g zirconyl(IV) nitrate hydrate, 0.46 g cerium(III) nitrate hexahydrate hydrate and 0.65 g of yttrium (III) nitrate hexahydrate) and (ii) oxalic acid (6.55 g) dissolved in ethanol. Under vigorous stirring, the two solutions were slowly mixed at room temperature. The formed precipitate was centrifuged at 5000 rpm for 15 minutes and then dried overnight at 110° C. to form a catalyst precursor. The catalyst precursor was calcined at 350° C. for 4 hours to obtain the mixed metal catalyst of the present invention. Catalyst particle size was calculated from the XRD results according to the Scherrer formula and it was found that Cu...

[0075] (Synthesis of Cu / Zn / Zr / Ce / Y)
[0076]A catalyst with an atomic ratio of copper, zinc, zirconium, cerium, and yttrium of 60:15:10:5:10 was prepared by gel oxalate co-precipitation using an excess of 20% oxalic acid. Two separate solutions were prepared (i) nitrate mixture (6.84 g copper(II) nitrate trihydrate, 2.05 g zinc nitrate hexahydrate and 0.76 g zirconyl(IV) nitrate hydrate, 0.46 g cerium(III) nitrate hexahydrate hydrate and 1.29 g of yttrium (III) nitrate hexahydrate) and (ii) oxalic acid (6.42 g) dissolved in ethanol. Under vigorous stirring, the two solutions were slowly mixed at room temperature. The formed precipitate was centrifuged at 5000 rpm for 15 minutes and then dried overnight at 110° C. to form a catalyst precursor. The catalyst precursor was calcined at 350° C. for 4 hours to obtain the mixed metal catalyst of the present invention.
