Effect of metal composition on hydrogen selectivity in steam reforming of methanol over catalysts prepared from amorphous alloys

Durability of WO3/ZrO2–CuO/CeO2 catalysts for steam reforming of dimethyl ether

“…There are two main catalyst systems for steam reforming of methanol; one is supported copper catalyst group [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23] and the other is supported palladium catalyst group [24]. Two causes of deactivation of the supported copper catalysts are proposed: coking of the catalysts [16] and change of the oxidation state of copper [17].…”

A dense Pd/Ag membrane reactor for methanol steam reforming: Experimental study

“…The reason of this trend is probably due to carbon deposition during long-term experiments. In fact, carbon deposition is the main problem of methanol steam reforming carried out over Cu-containing catalysts [3]. Moreover, long-term (20 h) experiments carried out using the TR gave an amount of 0.117 g of carbon deposited on the catalyst surface.…”

“…The methanol steam reforming (MSR) reaction is viewed as a very interesting and promising method for hydrogen production useful for fuel cell applications [1][2][3][4]. According to the literature, the chemical reactions considered are as follows: Reactions (1) and (3) are both reversible and endothermic reactions and proceed under volume increase, suggesting that the highest methanol conversions are obtained at high temperature and low pressure.…”

Hydrogen Production Using Pd-based Membrane Reactors for Fuel Cells

“…The methanol steam reforming reaction is viewed as a very interesting, promising method for hydrogen production useful for fuel cell applications [70,[94][95][96]. According to the literature, the chemical reactions considered are the following:…”
