Studies of the Ethanol Steam Reforming Reaction in a Membrane Reactor
… reactors (MRs). The reaction studied is the ethanol steam reforming (ESR) reaction using Co-Na/ZnO catalysts, chosen because of their high activity and stability. The Co-Na/ZnO catalysts were prepared by a co-precipitation method and it was found that promotion with a moderate amount of Na …

Fabrication of Ultrathin Palladium Composite Membranes by a New Technique and Their Application in the Ethanol Steam Reforming for H₂ Production
… of the membranes is demonstrated in the ethanol steam reforming (EtOH SR) reaction in a membrane reactor (MR) for H₂ production. The membrane preparation technique uses an electric-field to uniformly deposit Pd nanoparticle seeds on a substrate followed by deposition of Pd or Pd-Cu layers …

Catalytic activation of Rh,Pd nanoclusters supported on Ceria
… exhibit excellent activity and stability for ethanol steam reforming (ESR) at 400°C. This thesis encompasses experimental and computational investigations of this nanocatalyst. The activation mechanism of Rh,Pd/CeO2 nanocatalysts under ethanol steam reforming conditions is unclear, though it …

Development of supported nanocatalysts for hydrogen production technologies
… to coking.Next, the preparation of Ru and Ru-Pt ethanol steam reforming catalysts from organometallic cluster precursors is described. The cluster-derived catalysts were found to be vastly superior to their conventional salt-derived counterparts in both catalytic activity and selectivity to …

Synthesis of Nanomaterials for Optical and Catalytic Studies
… diethylene glycol. Lastly, catalysis studies of ethanol steam reforming were performed using the Cu/ZnO composites prepared. The applicability of nanomaterials in photocatalytic applications also propels the investigation on nanoimprint lithography (NIL) to design a photocatalytic reactor.
