Tri-Reforming of Methane over Pt Modified Ni/MgO Catalysts under Atmospheric Pressure – Thermal Distribution in the Catalyst Bed

Article Preview

Abstract:

Thermal distribution in catalyst bed was investigated for the fixed-bed tri-reforming of methane over Pt modified Ni/MgO catalysts under atmospheric pressure, 850 °C, and space velocity of 2000−20000 h−1. The effects of the W/F on the thermal distribution of different catalysts were examined. The results indicated that for Pt modified Ni/MgO catalysts, the temperature profile depended on catalysts preparation method. According to the thermal distribution, for Pt modified Ni/MgO catalysts prepared by sequence method, the catalyst bed can be divided into tow zones: auto-thermo reforming zone and oxygen absent zone. Methane reforming proceeds in both zones together.
