Claim Text:
1. A catalyst material for use in a kinetically-controlled sour gas shift reaction, the catalyst material comprising: a carrier material; and a catalytically-active molybdenum compound, a catalytically-active tungsten compound, or a combination thereof, disposed on the carrier material, present in the range of about 2 weight % to about 8 weight % based on the total weight of the catalyst material; wherein any additional catalytically-active metal compounds that are present are present in a total amount less than about 1 weight % based on the total weight of the catalyst material; wherein the amount of any catalytically-active molybdenum compound is calculated as MoO wherein catalytically-active refers to catalytic activity in a sour gas shift reaction; and wherein the catalyst material is in sulfided form, such that at least part of the catalytically-active metal compounds are in the form of sulfided species, and wherein the catalyst material exhibits a test conversion of CO that is less than about 60% at 375° C., wherein the test conversion is performed in a set of tubular reactors (i.d.=19 mm) with 20 mL whole particle loading, at 200 psi, space velocity (SV)=3000 h
