Book Hydrogen Production Through Water Gas Shift Reaction Over Nickel Catalysts

Download or read book Hydrogen Production Through Water Gas Shift Reaction Over Nickel Catalysts written by Agus Haryanto and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The progress in fuel cell technology has resulted in an increased interest towards hydrogen fuel. Consequently, water gas shift reaction has found a renewed significance. Even though iron- and copper-based catalysts have been used for water gas shift reaction for decades, the catalysts are not strong enough to bring carbon monoxide concentration to a level tolerable for a fuel cell working at low temperatures. This study is focused on hydrogen production from water gas shift reaction using a nickel catalyst. Literature review revealed that nickel is one of the promising catalysts for water gas shift reaction. A thermodynamic analysis proved that exothermic water gas shift reaction is thermodynamically favorable at low temperatures but kinetically limited, and vice versa at higher temperatures. Initial experiments using 12 catalysts supported over monolith alumina revealed that nickel supported on ceria-promoted monolith alumina (Ni/CeO2-Al2O3) performed best, especially at 500°C. At this temperature and steam flowrates of 0.1-0.5 ml/min, the nickel catalyst had an activity of 94-99%, H2 yield of 55-61 vol.%, and H2 selectivity of 77-99%. A second set of experiments examined nine nickel based catalysts using different supports (mostly in powder form) which also demonstrated that Ni/CeO2-Al2O3 is the most promising catalyst for high temperature (450°C) water gas shift reaction. When nickel loading was varied from 1 to 8% (w/w), it was apparent that the catalyst performance increased with the nickel loading. Powder alumina resulted in better catalysis than monolith alumina. In this experiment, it was evident that the presence of minor amounts (1% (w/w) of the nickel loading) of a dopant material that included cobalt, chromium, molybdenum, or ruthenium affected the catalytic activity of the primary catalyst. The addition of cobalt or chromium resulted in positive effect on the performance of Ni/CeO2-Al2O3 catalyst. There was no appreciable effect due to the addition of ruthenium, and there was negative effect owing to the presence of molybdenum. Undoped, cobalt-doped, or chromium-doped Ni/CeO2-Al2O3 catalyst performed much better for water gas shift reaction at 450°C than that of a commercial (control) catalyst. A kinetic study revealed that the activation energy of water gas shift reaction over Ni/CeO2-Al2O3 was to be 104.5 kJ/mol.

Book Hydrogen Production Via Glycerol Dry Reforming Over Nickel Catalyst Supported on Sio2 and Al2O3 Modified by La

Download or read book Hydrogen Production Via Glycerol Dry Reforming Over Nickel Catalyst Supported on Sio2 and Al2O3 Modified by La written by Farahani Sarajuddin and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Currently, energy has become the most demand for human needed. The utilization of future energy that is clean and sustainable becomes increasingly urgent because of dwindling petroleum reserves and mounting environmental concerns that are associated with fossil fuel. Hydrogen has been considered as the most suitable alternative for future energy aiming to reduce the dependence on fossil fuel and carbon based emission. Previously, non-renewable resources mainly coal, fossil fuel, petroleum coke, and petroleum residues has been widely used as the main feedstock for syngas (H2 and CO) production. However, due to the various factors such are global warming, the unstable price and availability of petroleum-based oil as well as the environmental pollution, the desirability towards biomass (glycerol) as the alternative energy feedstock has attract the world's attention. Glycerol which a by-product of biodiesel production is one of the most promising renewable sources associated environmental impacts from the usage of the fossil fuels in which it minimal carbon dioxide (CO2) emission and more preferable in fuels production. In recent years, the production of hydrogen from glycerol via steam reforming widely investigated, only a few studies on dry reforming with CO2. Therefore, this project was attempted to study the production of hydrogen via glycerol dry reforming over nickel (Ni) catalyst supported on silica oxide (SiO2) and alumina (Al2O3) modified with lanthanum (La). This works aims to synthesis, characterize, and screening Ni catalyst supported on SiO2 and Al2O3 with promoted in La solution using various techniques such are Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis , Mastersizer 2000 Ver.5.60 and elemental analysis. The catalyst characterization includes their porosity, structure, crystalline behaviour, and a physiochemical property is investigated. It shows that the promoted catalyst possessed smaller metal crystalline size, hence higher metal dispersion compared than both Ni/Al2O3 and Ni/SiO2 catalyst. In addition, the particle size distribution measured by Mastersizer measurement for promoted alumina catalyst gave higher size distribution which about 0.452 m2/g compared than silica oxides support. The reaction studies for syngas production at T=973 K for 3 hour reaction time with the inlet flowrate and carbon to to glycerol ratio is 0.03 ml/min and 1 had successfully produced H2 with glycerol conversion and H2 yield that peaked at 5.8% and 28% respectively over 3% La content. The catalyst screening shows that the alumina support gave excellent catalytic performance compared than silica oxide due to the larger surface area and smaller crystallite size that ensured accessibility of active catalytic area.

Download or read book Catalysis to Produce Hydrogen written by Natthakich Assanee and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-01 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The share market of hydrogen is increasing with the implementation of fuel cell systems and the growing demand for zero-emission fuels. Hydrogen production by using metal catalyst will need to increase with this growing market. However, some carbon is deposited on the catalyst but there was a window of operation where the deposited carbon did not have too great an effect on hydrogen production under different conditions. Carbon formation deactivates the catalyst, resulting in short life cycles. In order to improve process performance, in particular minimizing catalyst deactivation caused by carbon formation and maximizing the yield of hydrogen product, the addition of the promoters to catalyst is the most familiar method. The book is focused on the art of the promoters application on metal catalyst for hydrogen production from the methane steam reforming process at high pressure and the steam iron process over promoted Fe-oxide based catalyst.

Book Hydroprocessing Catalysts And Processes  The Challenges For Biofuels Production

Download or read book Hydroprocessing Catalysts And Processes The Challenges For Biofuels Production written by Bo Zhang and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2018-04-09 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The demand for hydroprocessing catalysts has shown an increasing trend, because of their applications in refining of petroleum and biofuels, in order to comply with strict environmental regulations controlling emissions from transportation vehicles.Transport fuel is dominated by fossil fuels with carbon emission intensive production methods. If we are to move away from these sources, the alternative is to produce liquid fuels from agricultural stocks — crops, crop waste, forestry waste or algae. Converting these feedstocks into high quality fuels is a considerable challenge.By describing the current status in processing agricultural feedstock into high quality liquid transport fuels, the authors set out the means to develop better chemistry and catalysis for the necessary conversion processes. This book offers an intriguing insight into the mechanisms and protocols involved in new hydroprocessing catalysts and processes, and covers the methods for upgrading these liquids to modern transport vehicles suitable for operation in modern gasoline and diesel engines.It provides an introduction to the mechanism of hydroprocessing reactions, application of different metals in hydroprocessing, the effect of catalyst supports, applications in refining new feedstock, renewable fuels standards, the management of spent hydroprocessing catalysts, and hydrogen production.Hydroprocessing Catalysts and Processes will prove useful for both researchers in academe and industry concerned with future fuels development and treatment to produce current and future liquid transport fuels.
