I’m trying to understand what’s *actually* inside commercial glovebox purifier columns.

Everyone says “Pt catalyst” or “Cu catalyst,” but what are the real materials/product names?

BASF? Engelhard? Pt/Al₂O₃ pellets? Reduced copper?

I’m interested because I’d like to build a small DIY circulation/purification system for research use.

Would appreciate any teardown info, maintenance experience, patents, or references.
