Experimental Study on Catalytic Combustion of Gasoline Vapor

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper provides the results of an experimental research on the performance of catalytic combustion of gasoline vapor. A packed bed reactor was built to test the effect of inlet temperature and concentration on catalytic combustion of gasoline vapor over Pd/Al2O3. The study shows that catalytic combustion is a cost-effective and environmental friendly method to control this kind of emission. The light-off temperature is quite low and full conversion rate is easy to achieve. Meanwhile, the method of controlling the bed temperature is proposed to avoid sintering if the technology is utilized in larger-scale equipment.
