Catalytic reforming of logistic fuels at high-temperatures
نویسنده
چکیده
This chapter reviews recent studies of catalytic reforming of logistic fuels at hightemperature. Aside from steam and autothermal reforming, special consideration is given to partial oxidation conditions. Natural gas, gasoline, diesel, and ethanol containing fuels are discussed. Methane and iso-octane as fuel surrogates are exemplarily used to explain the behavior of the reformers in particular focusing on the interaction of heterogeneous and homogeneous chemical reactions and mass and heat transport. As catalyst of choice for reforming, rhodium-based systems are in the focus of this review but alternate catalysts are noted as well.

Catalytic Reforming of n-Heptane on Platimum - Rhenium Supported on Gamma-Alumina
Catalyitic reforming is one of the refinery processes in catalyst conversion that results to anincreases in octane number of naphtan which leads to production of gasoline with higher octanenumber. Hydrocarbons with high octan number that are produced in reforming process are as;aromatics, paraffins, isomers and etc.Not only Aromatics are used as fuel for motors but they are also useful in petro...
متن کاملHydrogen production via steam reforming of LPG on Ni/Zeolite catalysts
Steam reforming is one of the most important processes for producing hydrogen from hydrocarbon fuels such as LPG and has attracted much attention due to its high efficiency and economy. In this study, the LPG steam reforming reaction was investigated on nickel catalysts supported on four various zeolites (H-Y, Na-Y, HZSM5 and Ferrierite). The catalytic tests were performed in a tubular fixed be...

Several mesoporous nickel-based catalysts with MgO-Al2O3 as the catalyst support were prepared using a co-precipitation method at a constant pH. The supports were prepared from the decomposition of an Mg-Al hydrotalcite-like structure which had already been prepared with Mg/Al=1. Prior to impregnating 10 wt.% nickel on the supports, the precursor was decomposed at several ...

whereas American industry has available large supplies of natural gas; the refiner in the U.S.A. can therefore produce high quality fuels partly by catalytic cracking of heavy distillates, but his European counterpart has no such opportunity and must rely to a much greater extent on catalytic reforming processes to produce high quality fuels from straightrun naphthas. Again, while demand for hi...
