The present work aims the evaluation of a ruthenium catalyst supported on alumina (Ru/Al2O3) in the reforming of ethanol for the production of hydrogen. The selection of a suitable synthesis method, support and appropriate reagents proportions, play a major role in the catalyst performance within this reaction. Catalyst was synthesized by the incipient impregnation method from a solution of Ruthenium (III) chloride mono-hydrated to get a loading of 10% W, and deposited on α-alumina as support. The catalyst was characterized by: X-ray diffraction (XRD), surface area (BET), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and a thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The evaluation of the catalyst was carried out using a bench-scale fixed bed reactor system for the reforming of ethanol and reaction product compositions followed by gas chromatography. Preliminary results indicate that catalyst selectivity was highly dependent on reaction temperature, steam to ethanol ratio and space velocity for the production of a high content hydrogen gas product accompanied with low carbon deposition on the catalyst surface | |
