Performance Evaluation of Cu-SiO2 Aerogel Catalyst in Methanol Steam Reforming

ZnO Nanowire-supported Ag Catalyst for Methanol Steam Reforming

Alternative energy sources, such as various fuel cell technologies, have attracted intense attention due to their high efficiency and low emissions of pollutants. Methanol, with its high hydrogen/carbon ratio, low sulfur content and the absence of carbon–carbon bonds, has been identified as a highly suitable source for onboard production of hydrogen [1]. Among several reactions for converting m...

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 ...

In situ investigations of structure-activity relationships of a Cu/ZrO2 catalyst for the steam reforming of methanol

Structure-activity relationships of a nanostructured Cu/ZrO2 catalyst for the steam reforming of methanol (MSR) were investigated under reaction conditions by in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) combined with on-line mass spectrometry (MS). Temperature programmed activation by reduction in hydrogen or by reduction in a mixture of methanol and water (feed) was...

In situ Studies of Alloy Formation on a Pd/Ga2O3 Methanol Steam Reforming Catalyst

Methanol steam reforming is a promising reaction in terms of hydrogen production for use in PEM fuel cells. Catalyst research has focused mainly on Cu/ZnO formulations, because of their superior selectivity to CO2 and H2. The common byproduct CO is problematic due to its poisoning effect on the anode of a downstream fuel cell. Some years ago it was shown that palladium supported on certain redu...
