Formaldehyde Combustion on Nickel Oxide (Multiplicity, Modeling Fuel, Auto Catalytic)
Abstract
dc:descriptionThe kinetics and mechanism of formaldehyde combustion on nickel oxide at 493 degrees Kelvin were investigated. Formaldehyde was chosen because it has the attributes of a good modeling fuel--it reacts through a series of dehydrogenation and oxidation reactions and its gas phase combustion is extendable to higher order hydrocarbon. Nickel oxide was chosen for its activity in dehydrogenation and oxidation reactions. This activity falls in the middle of all the transition metal oxides.
