Advances in Structured and Microstructured Catalytic Reactors for Hydrogen Production

摘要: Structured and microstructured catalytic reactors allow one to overcome the limitations of fixed beds solve compromise between pressure drop diffusional limitations. Additionally, systems offer excellent opportunities in compactness mobility fuel processors for hydrogen production. The first part this chapter will present main points type including description structured catalysts their fabrication discussing influence substrate materials coating techniques with special emphasis on washcoating. second review recent advances use these types production from different biofuels: bio-oil, producer gas, dimethyl ether, biomethanol, biodiesel, biogas, bioglycerol bioethanol. Finally, due endothermic character most reactions involved production, coupled combustion be also reviewed systems.
