Steam-Reforming Characteristics of Heavy and Light Tars Derived from Cellulose

Supplementary Material: Millisecond Autothermal Steam Reforming of Cellulose for Synthetic Biofuels by Reactive Flash Volatilization

The molar flow rate of carbon has been selected as the processing parameter for comparison for several reasons. The heterogeneous feedstock (air/oxygen and solid material such as biomass) of most gasifiers permits a wide range of total mass feed rate depending on parameters such as the C/O ratio of the solid, the S/C ratio of the gasifier feed, and equivalence ratio of the gasifier. However, th...

Stable Hydrogen Production from Ethanol through Steam Reforming Reaction over Nickel-Containing Smectite-Derived Catalyst

Hydrogen production through steam reforming of ethanol was investigated with conventional supported nickel catalysts and a Ni-containing smectite-derived catalyst. The former is initially active, but significant catalyst deactivation occurs during the reaction due to carbon deposition. Side reactions of the decomposition of CO and CH4 are the main reason for the catalyst deactivation, and these...

Steam reforming on transition-metal carbides from density-functional theory

A screening study of the steam reforming reaction on clean and oxygen covered early transitionmetal carbides surfaces is performed by means of density-functional theory calculations. It is found that carbides provide a wide spectrum of reactivities, from too reactive via suitable to too inert. Several molybdenum-based systems are identified as possible steam reforming catalysts. The findings su...
