In the framework of National Research Project "High Efficiency Technologies for Onboard Environmental and Sustainable Energy Use" (TESEO), the CNR-ITAE has developed and tested a syngas generator (DSR I) based on Steam Reforming (SR) of n-dodecane (n-C12H26) as surrogate of diesel, with maximum hydrogen production of 1.5 Nm3/h for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs), as on-board Auxiliary Power Unit. A Packet bed annular reactor (200cm3) containing a commercial 2wt%Rh-based catalyst (220g) has been used in the SR unit. In this work, with the aim to reduce noble metal usage and intensify the SR process, 1wt%Me/CeO2 (Me = Rh, Pt) cordierite monolithic catalysts (diameter = 2cm, length = 15cm, 400cpsi, 47cm3), have been prepared, with a novel coating technique based on Solution Combustion Synthesis (SCS).

Abstract
In the framework of National Research Project "High Efficiency Technologies for Onboard Environmental and Sustainable Energy Use" (TESEO), the CNR-ITAE has developed and tested a syngas generator (DSR I) based on Steam Reforming (SR) of n-dodecane (n-C12H26) as surrogate of diesel, with maximum hydrogen production of 1.5 Nm3/h for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs), as on-board Auxiliary Power Unit. A Packet bed annular reactor (200cm3) containing a commercial 2wt%Rh-based catalyst (220g) has been used in the SR unit. In this work, with the aim to reduce noble metal usage and intensify the SR process, 1wt%Me/CeO2 (Me = Rh, Pt) cordierite monolithic catalysts (diameter = 2cm, length = 15cm, 400cpsi, 47cm3), have been prepared, with a novel coating technique based on Solution Combustion Synthesis (SCS).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
