The aim of the project is to use transmission electron microscopy and electron tomography to characterize changes in the structure and the morphology under reaction conditions of gold based catalysts supported on cerium-related mixed oxides and to relate these changes with the catalytic activity of these systems.

The University of Cadiz is the only participant of this Project, so the contribution is 100%.

Results have been sent to a conference and there is an article in preparation.

The catalysts have been prepared and their particle size have been studied by electron microscopy.
