Monolith based catalytic partial oxidation process for syngas production

摘要

A method for the partial catalytic oxidation of hydrocarbon to produce hydrogen and carbon monoxide, by contacting a reduced metal catalyst consisting essentially of a transition metal selected from the group consisting of nickel, cobalt, iron, platinum, palladium, iridium, rhenium, ruthenium, rhodium, osmium and combinations thereof supported on or in a ceria-coated zirconia monolith support with a flow of a mixture of a hydrocarbon-containing feed gas and an oxygen-containing feed gas, wherein the partial oxidation is initiated at a temperature of at least 10°C but less than 100°C, the mixture including hydrogen prior to initiation.
