Investigation into the behaviour of a wash-coated PGM-based catalyst layer onto micro-channel reactors for the steam reforming of methane
… onto stainless steel micro-channels (MC) for the reforming of propane [24] was tested in the steam reforming of methane. The robustness of this method was unknown and was therefore tested for its possible application in methane steam reforming, which has far harsher reaction conditions. A 1 wt% …

The oxidative reforming of methane to synthesis gas on a commercial steam reforming catalyst
The oxidative reforming of methane to predominantly carbon monoxide and hydrogen was studied over a commercial steam reforming catalyst. The said reaction was performed in an integral fixed-bed reactor at temperatures between 575°C and 650°C at a total pressure of 200 kPa(a). The primary objective …

Hybrid solar-fossil fuel power generation
In this thesis, a literature review of hybrid solar-fossil fuel power generation is first given with an emphasis on system integration and evaluation. Hybrid systems are defined as those which use solar energy and fuel simultaneously, thus excluding the viable alternative of solar thermal plants …

Experimental and Modeling Studies of the Methane Steam Reforming Reaction at High Pressure in a Ceramic Membrane Reactor
This dissertation describes the preparation of a novel inorganic membrane for hydrogen permeation and its application in a membrane reactor for the study of the methane steam reforming reaction. The investigations include both experimental studies of the membrane permeation mechanism and …

Synthesis, spectroscopy, and electrochemistry of hydrogenase mimics
… bacteria to expel hydrogen as a byproduct of photosynthesis. Hydrogen does not accumulate in our atmosphere because microorganisms consume it quickly in both aerobic and anaerobic environments. Hydrogen is therefore a commodity fuel for humans that spend many quadrillion BTUs of energy …

Industrial Ni-Based Catalyst Development for Carbon Dioxide Reforming of Methane
… catalyst with and without the addition of Boehmite as the binding material. The shaped catalysts were comparably as strong as the commercial spherical alumina ones. The catalysts were also stable and active for carbon dioxide reforming of methane (CRM) reaction in the range of 800 to 900 …
