    摘要: Disclosed are methods for producing dimethyl ether (DME) from methanol and for producing DME directly from syngas, such as syngas from biomass. Also disclosed are apparatus for DME production. The disclosed processes generally function at higher temperatures with lower contact times and at lower pressures than conventional processes so as to produce higher DME yields than do conventional processes. Certain embodiments of the processes are carried out in reactors providing greater surface to volume ratios than the presently used DME reactors. Certain embodiments of the processes are carried out in systems comprising multiple microchannel reactors.

    摘要: Carbon monoxide (CO) is selectively reacted with hydrogen (H2) over a ruthenium (Ru) on alumina catalyst at a temperature of about 210 to about 290° C. To be a viable option for micro catalytic fuel processing devices, highly active, selective, and stable catalysts must be demonstrated with as large a temperature window for feasible operation as possible. We have studied the effects of metal loading, preparation method, pretreatment conditions, and choice of support on the performance of Ru-based catalysts for such applications. Catalyst testing results and catalyst characterization using XRD and BET are discussed. In one example, operating at a gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) of 13,500 hr−1, a 3% Ru/Al2O3 catalyst yielded CO outputs less than 100 ppm in a temperature range from 240° C. to 285° C., while not exceeding a hydrogen consumption of 10%. This catalyst was further successfully demonstrated in a microchannel device.
