Syngas Production from CH4 Dry Reforming Over Coeni/Al2O3 Catalyst: Coupled Reaction-Deactivation Kinetic Analysis and the Effect of O2 Co-Feeding on H2:CO Ratio

| description | The dry and oxidative dry reforming of CH4 over alumina-supported CoeNi catalysts were investigated over 72-h longevity experiments. The deactivation behaviour at low CO2:CH4 ratio (2) suggests that carbon deposition proceeds via a rapid dehydropolymerisation step
resulting in the blockage of active sites and loss in CO2 consumption. In particular, at high temperatures of 923 K and 973 K, a ‘breakthrough’ point was observed in which deactivation that was previously slow suddenly accelerated, indicating rapid polymerisation of
deposited carbon. Only with feed CO2:CH4 > 2 or with O2 co-feeding was coke-induced deactivation eliminated. In particular, O2 co-feeding gave improved carbon removal,
product H2:CO ratios more suitable for downstream GTL processing and stable catalytic performance. Conversion-time data were adequately fitted to the generalised Levenspiel reaction-deactivation model. Activation energy estimate (66e129 kJ mol1) was dependent on the CO2:CH4 ratio but representative of other hydrocarbon reforming reactions on Nibased catalysts. |
