Steam Reforming Catalyst

View page
US Patent:
47554983, Jul 5, 1988
Filed:
Sep 16, 1987
Appl. No.:
7/097377
Inventors:
Herbert J. Setzer - Ellington CT
Sam Karavolis - East Hampton CT
John A. S. Bett - Hamden CT
Assignee:
International Fuel Cells Corporation - South Windsor CT
International Classification:
B01J 2104
B01J 2310
B01J 2358
US Classification:
502303
Abstract:
High activity sulfur tolerant steam reforming catalysts are described comprising iridium, palladium or platinum supported on lanthanum stabilized alumina or magnesium promoted lanthanum stabilized alumina. The catalysts have improved activity over conventionally used catalysts in the presence of sulfur containing hydrocarbon fuels, particularly in a steam reforming environment. The catalysts have utility in autothermal, tubular, cyclic and adiabatic steam reforming processes.

US Patent:
44735430, Sep 25, 1984
Filed:
Aug 4, 1983
Appl. No.:
6/520401
Inventors:
Herbert J. Setzer - Ellington CT
Roger R. Lesieur - Enfield CT
Sam Karavolis - East Hampton CT
Wayne G. Wnuck - Stafford Springs CT
Assignee:
United Technologies Corporation - Hartford CT
International Classification:
C01B 118
US Classification:
423652
Abstract:
High activity steam reforming catalysts are described particularly adapted for use in autothermal reforming processes. A rhodium catalyst on a calcium oxide impregnated alumina substrate allow the autothermal reforming process to take place with substantially no carbon plugging at oxygen to carbon ratios below what had been considered critical for avoiding carbon plugging of the catalyst in the past.
