Hydrogen production by steam reforming of dimethyle ether over Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 and H-ZSM-5 catalysts: An experimental and modeling study
Hydrogen was produced by steam reforming of dimethyl ether (DME) using a physical mixture of commercial HZSM-5 zeolite (for DME hydrolyzing) and Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 (for methanol steam reforming) as a catalyst in a fixed bed reactor. The experiments were performed at atmospheric pressure and in a temperature range from 270 to 310 °C. The effects of feed temperature and gas hourly space velocity (GHSV)...
متن کاملEffect of platinum on Ceria supported Cu catalysts for PrOx process in fuel processors
The CO preferential oxidation (PrOx) is one of the critical steps in hydrogen production and purification for Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC). This reaction was investigated in the presence of excess hydrogen over Cu/CeO2, Pt/CeO2 and Cu-Pt/CeO2 catalysts. The ceria supports was prepared via precipitation method and Cu-Pt/CeO2 catalyst was synthesized by sequential impregnation o...

The potential of carbon nanotubes (CNT) supported cobalt catalysts for Fischer-Tropsch (FT) reaction is shown. Using the wet impregnation method cobalt on carbon nanotubes catalysts were prepared with cobalt loading varying from 15 to 45 wt. %. The catalysts are characterized by different methods including: BET physisorption, X-ray diffraction, hydrogen chemisorption, and temperature-progra...
متن کاملDissymmetric dinuclear transition metal complexes as dual site catalysts for the polymerization of ethylene
A series of dissymmetric dinuclear complexes were synthesized, as dual site catalysts in ethylene polymerization, by coupling the allylated a-diimine complexes of the metals Ti, Zr, V, Ni and Pd with the ansa-zirconocene complex [C5H4-SiH(Me)-C5H4]ZrCl2 possessing a hydride silane moiety. The different stages of syntheses included the formation of bis(cyclopentadienide)methyl silane which was u...
متن کاملMethanol Steam Reforming Catalyzing over Cu/Zn/Fe Mixed Oxide Catalysts
Methanol steam reforming plays a pivotal role to produce hydrogen for fuel cell systems in a low temperature range. To accomplish higher methanol conversion and lower CO production, the reaction was catalyzed by CuZnFe mixed oxides. Various ratios of Fe and Cu/Zn were coprecipitated in differential method to optimize the CuZnFe structure. The sample containing 45Cu50Zn5Fe (Wt. %) revealed its m...
