Rhodium, a rare metal, plays an important role in catalysis due to its unique chemical properties. Rhodium catalyst is widely used in many fields such as chemical industry and automobile exhaust treatment because of its high catalytic performance and excellent corrosion resistance. The applications and types of rhodium catalysis will be discussed in this paper.
Application of rhodium catalyst
Chemical industry: Rhodium catalysts are used in the chemical industry to facilitate a range of chemical reactions, including hydrogenation, carbonylation and reduction of nitrogen oxides. These catalysts help to improve the efficiency and selectivity of the reaction and reduce energy consumption and production costs.
Automotive exhaust purification: In automotive exhaust treatment, rhodium catalyst is an important part of the three-way catalytic conversion system. It is specifically designed to reduce the nitrogen oxide content in exhaust gas, and effectively reduces the environmental impact of cars by reducing nitrogen oxides into nitrogen and water.

Types of rhodium catalysts
Supported rhodium catalyst: This catalyst disperses trace amounts of rhodium onto a high-surface area support such as activated carbon or alumina. Supported rhodium catalysts are widely used in hydrogenation and organic synthesis because of their high surface activity.
Homogeneous rhodium catalysts: homogeneous rhodium catalysts are usually rhodium-containing organic compounds that are in the same phase as the reactants in the reaction medium. These catalysts show high activity and selectivity in catalyzing carbonylation reactions (such as the synthesis of acetic acid) and hydrogen transfer reactions.
Rhodium alloy catalyst: Rhodium can also form alloys with other metals (such as platinum, palladium) and be used as catalysts. These alloy catalysts are commonly used in the purification of automobile exhaust, and can simultaneously catalyze the reduction of nitrogen oxides, the oxidation of carbon monoxide, and the conversion of unburned hydrocarbons.
