Upstream says:  https://access.redhat.com/solutions/509373 , I'd expect
CentOS to follow suit.

As already explained on this list, Red Hat ("The Upstream Vendor,
TUV")
did not release a 32 bit version, CentOS project, which follows RHEL, 
did not provide a 32 bit iso too. See :
https://access.redhat.com/solutions/509373

Now, all CPUs are 64 bits capable, and Red Hat is looking for the 
professional and server market, where there is no more interest for 32 
bits (memory limited even if there is PAE, UEFI and so on...)
