Abstract:
A process for hydrogen production at lower temperature by using Mn/ZnO, Cu/MnO, Cu/CeO2, CuCe/ZnO and/or CuMn/ZnO catalysts, wherein a partial oxidization of methanol (POM) process can be initiated at an ambient reactor temperature lower than 100° C. and then undertaken at a reaction temperature lower than 200° C., and wherein POM process not only generates hydrogen rich gas (HRG) containing 4% CO or less but also generates 1.8 moles hydrogen or more per 1 mole methanol consumed.
Abstract:
A self-started OSRM (oxidative steam reforming of methanol) process at room temperature for hydrogen production is disclosed. In the process, an aqueous methanol and oxygen are pre-mixed. The mixture is then fed to a Cu/ZnO-based catalyst to initiate an OSRM process at room temperature. The temperature of the catalyst bed, with suitable thermal isolation, may be raised automatically by the exothermic OSRM to enhance the conversion of methanol. A hydrogen yield of 2.4 moles per mole methanol from the process may be obtained.
Abstract:
A hydrogen production process with high hydrogen yield at a low temperature is described. First, an aqueous methanol solution with water/methanol molar ratio between about 0.75 and about 2.5 is pre-mixed with oxygen in an oxygen/methanol molar ratio not greater than about 0.5. The mixture is then directed to pass through an activated supported gold catalyst undergoing an oxidative steam reforming of methanol to generate a hydrogen-rich gas with CO content less than 1% at a low reaction temperature (TR>150° C.). Gold particles on active supported gold catalysts have been dispersed to a size of 6 nm or less. The oxidative steam reforming of methanol may generate more than 2 moles of hydrogen for each mole of methanol consumed.

Abstract:
The Pd/Al2O3 catalyst displayed significant activity towards conversion of NO into N2 and O2 at T>1050° K. On modifying the catalyst with NaOH, the required operation temperature may be lowered to 900° K. The modified Pd/Al2O3 may be used in stationary factories and power stations, as well as catalytic converters for abatement of NOx emission. Calorimetric and temperature-programmed-desorption studies revealed that observed catalytic activity at 900° K. resulted from a formation of interfacial sites which strongly adsorb NO molecules.
