Novel adsorbents for use in the separation of carbon monoxide and/or unsaturated hydrocarbons from mixed gases. An adsorbent for separating carbon monoxide or unsaturated hydrocarbon from mixed gases is made by heating a solid mixture comprising a copper compound and a support having a high surface area in a suitable atmosphere.

An adsorbent for use in selective adsorption of CO, unsaturated hydrocarbons, or mixtures thereof, from a mixed gas, comprising: (i) a suitable support having a sufficiently high surface area, and (ii) a cuprous compound on said support prepared by heating a solid mixture of said support and copper

An adsorbent for use in selective adsorption of CO, unsaturated hydrocarbons, or mixtures thereof, from a mixed gas, comprising: (i) a suitable support having a sufficiently high surface area, and (ii) a cuprous compound on said support prepared by heating a solid mixture of said support and copper compound selected from the group consisting of a cuprous compound, a cupric compound and combinations thereof at a temperature and for a time period sufficient to disperse an adsorbent effective amount of said copper compound onto the surface of said support. A process for separating CO from a mixed gas containing CO together with a component selected from the group consisting of H2, N2, Ar, He, CH4, C2H6, C3H8, CO2, and mixtures thereof, which process comprises passing a stream of said gas through a mass of an adsorbent as claimed in claim 1 at a temperature in the range from 0°C. to 100°C. and a pressure from 1 to 100 atmosphere, and releasing the adsorbed CO by heating the adsorbent or lowering the pressure.
