In the nitric acid industry, platinum loss is the second largest cost due to vaporization of the Pt gauze catalyst at high temperature. In this research, Pt is loaded on TiO₂, ZrO₂, CeO₂, and ceria–zirconia solid solution by photoreduction and used as catalysts for ammonia oxidation. Results show that Pt content of the obtained catalysts is effectively reduced to 0.08 wt %, but their catalytic performance is better than that of the traditional Pt gauze between 300 and 800 °C. The best catalyst, 3Pt@CeO₂ with 0.0797 wt % Pt content, enabled complete ammonia transformation at 300 °C and 80% NOₓ yield at 800 °C with the space velocity of 235 000 h–¹ and the oxygen-to-ammonia ratio of 15 in ambient pressure. After 50 h of continuous operation, no observable decay in performance was detected. Such excellent performance is ascribed to the lattice oxygen provided by CeO₂ and the formation of Pt–Ce–O. These results provide a promising method of improving the current industrial Pt catalysts.
