Hydrogen Production by Methanol Steam Reforming on Copper Boosted by Zinc-Assisted Water Activation

Hydrogen Production by Methanol Steam Reforming on Copper Boosted by Zinc–Assisted Water Activation**

For use of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) in mobile power applications, an efficient source of COdepleted hydrogen is needed. To avoid technical and safety problems of hydrogen handling, storage, and transport, methanol can be used as practical and abundant energy carrier for on-board H2 generation, as it has the advantage of a high energy density. Hydrogen generation from meth...

Sustainable Hydrogen Production by Catalytic Bio-Ethanol Steam Reforming

Production of hydrogen by unmixed steam reforming of methane

Hydrogen production by sorption-enhanced steam reforming of glycerol.

Catalytic steam reforming of glycerol for H(2) production has been evaluated experimentally in a continuous flow fixed-bed reactor. The experiments were carried out under atmospheric pressure within a temperature range of 400-700 degrees C. A commercial Ni-based catalyst and a dolomite sorbent were used for the steam reforming reactions and in situ CO(2) removal. The product gases were measured...

Effect of Pt on Zn-Free Cu-Al Catalysts for Methanol Steam Reforming to Produce Hydrogen

Steam reforming of methanol can be considered as an attractive reaction aiming at hydrogen production for PEM fuel cells. Although Cu/Al-contained catalysts are considerably evaluated in this reaction, further evaluation is essential to evaluate the impact of some promoters like Pt in order to find a comprehensively optimized catalyst. Pt promoter is employed with different methods in this ...
