Embedding Pt-SnO Nanoparticles into MIL-101(Cr) Pores: Hydrogen Production with Low Carbon Monoxide Content from a New Methanol Steam Reforming Catalyst

摘要

abstract_textpThe catalyst Pt-SnO@MIL-101(Cr) was prepared using the cis-PtCl(SMe2)(2)(SnCl3) complex as a single precursor and characterized by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy, (ICP-OES), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), BET surface area analysis (S-BET), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and temperature program reduction (TPR). A new complex, cis-PtCl(SMe2)(2)(SnCl3), was synthesized from the reaction of PtCl2(SMe2)(2) with SnCl2 and characterized by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), ICP-OES, and H-1 NMR spectroscopy and used as the source of metals for preparation of the catalysts. The fabricated catalyst, Pt-SnO@MIL-101(Cr), with 10.2, 19.7, and 28.9 platinum loadings were used in a steam reforming of methanol (MSR) reaction using a microstructure monolith reactor in the temperature range of 150-300 degrees C. A high methanol conversion with a good selectivity of H-2 and low CO selectivity was achieved in light of the stability of the catalyst with a small amount of coke formation in the monolith system./p/abstract_text
