Özet

The effect of Ni/Pt loading ratio on autothermal reforming of Pt-Ni catalyst performance was studied. The effect of C/O2 ratio on the hydrogen production and H2/CO selectivity was dependent on the Pt and Ni loadings. The highest hydrogen production and H2/CO ratio levels were obtained for the highest C/O2 ratio tested. Lower residence times promoted hydrogen production rate mainly because of the higher flow rate of fresh hydrocarbons. Lower Pt loadings made the catalysts more sensitive to the changes in C/O2 ratio. This is an abstract of a paper presented at the AIChE Annual Meeting (Salt Lake, UT 11/4-9/2007).
