Autothermal Reforming of Diesel to Hydrogen and Activity Evaluation

摘要

Non-precious metal catalysts were prepared using the equal volume fractional impregnation method. The effect of the catalyst bed inlet temperature and diesel liquid airspeed on the self-thermal reforming of diesel was investigated with respect to the LaCeCoCrFeNi/Al2O3 catalyst. Optimum operating conditions were determined with a catalyst bed inlet temperature of 700 degrees C, diesel liquid airspeed of 0.24 h(-1), water and carbon ratio of 15, and oxygen/carbon ratio of 0.4.
