Highly Effective Hydrogen Production from Steam Reforming of CH3OH over Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 Catalysts Promoted by Nanostructured Carbon Materials

Abstract

Abstract: A number of nanostructured carbon materials were proposed as new effective promoters for preparing modified Cu/ZnO/Al₂O₃ catalyst system for efficient hydrogen production from methanol steam reforming. Compared to the catalysts modified by other type of carbon materials, the ACF-promoted catalyst prepared via carbonate-coprecipitation method exhibit the highest performance in the low-temperature steam reforming of methanol. It was suggested that the intrinsic high surface area nature of ACF material may favor the generation of modified catalysts with a high surface area and improved component dispersion, thus leading to improved performance for methanol steam reforming.

Key words: Methanol steam reforming, Hydrogen production, Cu/ZnO/Al₂O₃ catalyst, Nanostructured carbon materials, Activated carbon fiber(ACF)
