Lignin depolymerization (LDP) in alcohol over nickel-based catalysts via a fragmentation–hydrogenolysis process

TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that lignin can be selectively cleaved into propylguaiacol and propylsyringol with total selectivity >90% at a lignins conversion of about 50%.

Evaluation of thermochemical routes for hydrogen production from biomass: A review

TL;DR: In this paper, a review deals with the different reactor configurations, operating conditions and catalysts used in each process and compares the different alternatives in terms of H2 production, with emphasis placing on the advantages of the two-step strategy.

Ethanol steam reforming over Co-based catalysts: Role of oxygen mobility

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of oxygen mobility on the bio-ethanol steam reforming of ZrO2-supported cobalt catalysts was investigated, and it was found that the addition of ceria was found to improve the catalytic stability as well as activity.

Steam Reforming and Graphite Formation on Ni Catalysts

TL;DR: Based on density functional theory calculations, kinetic measurements, microkinetic and Monte Carlo simulations, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) experiments, extended X-ray absorption spectroscopy (EXAFS) measurements, and experimental results from the literature, this paper presented a detailed and comprehensive mechanistic picture of the steam reforming process on a Ni catalyst.

Mechanisms of carbon formation on nickel-containing catalysts.

TL;DR: A complex dependence of rate upon temperature is observed in many systems and different explanations for the existence of a rate maximum and an apparent negative activation energy are discussed in this paper, although other effects may influence the magnitude of the observed activation energy.

Sulfur-passivated nickel catalysts for carbon-free steam reforming of methane

TL;DR: In this paper, it has been observed that carbon-free steam reforming of methane can be obtained on a partly sulfur-passivated nickel catalyst under conditions which, without the presence of sulfur, would result in formation of whisker carbon.

Production of hydrogen for fuel cells by reformation of biomass-derived ethanol

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the influence of several parameters on the catalytic activity and selectivity, including reaction temperature, water-to-ethanol ratio and space velocity, on the Ni/La2O3 catalyst.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bio-ethanol catalytic steam reforming over supported metal catalysts

TL;DR: In this paper, a new strategy for maximizing the hydrogen production and minimizing the CO formation is proposed, which is based on the unexpected observation that any highly selective catalytic formulation should be free of any promoter in the water gas shift reaction (WGSR) which tends to equilibrate the SRR gas towards higher CO concentrations.
