| Abstract | A series of Cu catalysts supported on SiO2, Al2O3-SiO2, TiO2 rutile, and\n Cu/TiO2 anatase metal oxides has been studied for methanol reforming in\n the vapor phase. The highest activity was obtained on Cu/SiO2 catalysts\n (5493 mu mol H-2 min(-1).g(cat)(-1)) followed by Cu/TiO2 rutile,\n Cu/Al2O3-SiO2, and anatase. XRD and HRTEM characterization after\n reaction revealed that on Cu/SiO2 significant sintering occurred during\n reaction. In contrast, the particle size growth on Cu/TiO2 rutile and\n anatase was less pronounced, which could be associated with the\n interaction between Cu clusters and TiO2. Characterization by TGA showed\n that on Cu/Al2O3-SiO2 the main cause of deactivation was coke\n deposition. |
