Cu-Ce(Mn)-Al oxide catalysts to NO removal in the broad temperature range were synthesized and tested. The precursor of copper aluminium spinel was obtained with the coprecipitation method. By this method, Cu–Al spinels with various amounts of manganese and cerium were synthesized as well. These oxides crystallized in the structure of inverse spinel; however, Ce doping caused the appearance of additional CeO2 phase as determined by XRD. The samples were mesoporous solids with moderate surface area and porosity measured by low temperature sorption of nitrogen. The addition of another metal to Cu–Al spinel caused an increase of activity in selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxide with ammonia. The presence of manganese caused the formation of a higher amount of N2O by-product. The catalytic activity increased with the cerium concentration. For the sample with the atomic ratio Ce0.15Cu0.18, ca. 90% of NO conversion was registered between 200 and 350 °C. As examined with XPS spectroscopy, such conversion was attained due to the good dispersion of copper on the catalyst surface. This copper was placed mainly in spinel octahedral positions which enable its easier reduction. The spinel structure causes the presence of cerium as the trivalent cation important in redox cycles with the participation of copper.
