Their performance remained unchanged even after they were subjected to higher temperature (&amp;gt; 2000 degrees C for 30 min) or a number of high-temperature (&amp;gt; 2000 degrees C) shocks, due to their direct exposure to an oxyacetylene flame.

In the simultaneous CO2 and steam reforming, the conversion of methane and H2O and also the H-2/CO product ratio are strongly influenced by the CO2/H2O feed-ratio. In the simultaneous CO2 reforming and partial oxidation of methane, the conversion of methane and CO2, H-2 selectivity and the net heat of reaction are strongly influenced by the process parameters (viz. temperature, space velocity and relative concentration of O-2 in the feed). In both cases, no carbon deposition on the catalyst was observed.

The Co loading had a profound effect on the methane conversion and the hydrogen selectivity ( initial and time-on-stream activity) for the unreduced catalysts. While negligible methane conversion was observed for the 5 and 10 wt % Co loading catalyst, methane conversions &amp;gt; 95% were obtained over the high Co loading ( 20 and 30 wt %) catalysts; hydrogen selectivity followed the same trend as methane conversion. The Co loading level had a relatively smaller influence in the case of the reduced catalysts. While the 5 wt % Co catalyst showed low methane conversion activity (&amp;lt; 30%), the 10 wt % Co catalyst showed methane conversion levels comparable to those of the high Co loading catalysts. The high Co loading catalysts showed an excellent time-on-stream performance for the CO2 methane reforming reaction. X-ray diffraction and temperature-programmed reduction experiments indicate that the interesting activity behavior exhibited by the catalysts is related to the different phases ( and their reducibility) present in the catalysts at different Co loadings. The hydrogen selectivity was found to decrease with decreasing reaction temperature and increasing space velocity due to the increased simultaneous occurrence of the reverse water-gas shift reaction along with the CO2 reforming reaction.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">13</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2.567</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Choudhary, Vasant R.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mondal, Kartick C.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Choudhary, Tushar V.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Methane reforming over a high temperature stable-NiCoMgOx supported on zirconia-hafnia catalyst</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chemical Engineering Journal</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">high temperature stable catalyst</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">methane</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">oxy-dry reforming</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">oxy-steam reforming</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Partial oxidation</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2006</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AUG</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2-3</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ELSEVIER SCIENCE SA</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PO BOX 564, 1001 LAUSANNE, SWITZERLAND</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">121</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">73-77</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;The unusually high temperature stable NiCoMgOx (Ni/Co/Mg: 1:0.2:1.2)/zirconia-hafnia catalyst has been investigated for syngas generation via the catalytic partial oxidation of methane (CPOM), oxidative steam reforming of methane (OSRM) and oxidative CO2 reforming of methane (OCRM) processes. The catalyst, even when calcined at 1400 degrees C for 4 h, showed excellent activity/selectivity for the CPOM, OSRM and the OCRM reactions. On account of its high thermal stability, hot spots in the catalyst bed and/or high temperatures prevailing at the catalyst surface during the oxy-reforming processes would have little or no effect on the catalytic activity/selectivity of the NiCoMgOx/zirconia-hafnia catalyst, thus making the catalyst suitable even for operating under adiabatic conditions. While the selectivity for CO increased considerably with increasing reaction temperature for the CPOM process, the selectivity for H-2 was affected to a much lesser extent. The selectivity for CO and H-2 in the CPOM reaction was found to decrease with increasing space velocity; the H-2 selectivity was however affected to a greater extent. For the OSRM process, the H2O/CH4 ratio profoundly influenced the H-2/CO ratio and the heat of the reaction. Depending on the H2O/CH4 ratio, the OSRM process could be operated in a mildly exothermic, thermoneutral or mildly endothermic mode. The CO2 conversion increased rapidly with increasing OCRM temperature and correspondingly the exothermicity of the OCRM reaction was found to decrease with increasing reaction temperature. At 900 degrees C, the OCRM reaction was mildly exothermic and provided high methane conversion and syngas selectivity. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V.

With an increasing OCRM reaction temperature, the contribution from the CO2 methane reforming reaction increased while that from methane combustion reactions decreased. Correspondingly, there was an increase in the H-2/CO ratio and a sharp decrease in reaction exothermicity. At 900 C (gas hourly space velocity = 46 000 cm(3)/g/h and O-2/CH4 = 0.4), the OCRM reaction over the CoOx/CeO2/SA-5205 catalyst was mildly endothermic with &amp;gt; 90% CH4 conversion, &amp;gt; 95% H-2 selectivity, and a H-2/CO ratio of 1.63. CH4 conversion was relatively unaffected by the O-2/CH4 ratio used in the OCRM reaction; however, CO2 conversion decreased on increasing the O-2/CH4 ratio. While H-2 selectivity was not significantly affected by the O-2/CH4 ratio, the H-2/CO ratio increased linearly with an increasing O-2/CH4 ratio. The endothermicity of the reaction was found to decrease with an increasing CH4/O-2 ratio, which can be explained on the basis of increased contribution from the methane partial oxidation reaction with an increasing O-2/CH4 ratio.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2.835</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Choudhary, Vasant R.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mondal, Kartick C.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Choudhary, Tushar V.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Oxy-CO2 reforming of methane to syngas over CoOx/MgO/SA-5205 catalyst</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fuel</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">methane</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">oxy-CO2 reforming</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Syngas</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2006</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DEC</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">17-18</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ELSEVIER SCI LTD</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">THE BOULEVARD, LANGFORD LANE, KIDLINGTON, OXFORD OX5 1GB, OXON, ENGLAND</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">85</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2484-2488</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;The OXY-CO2 methane reforming reaction (OCRM) has been investigated over CoOx supported on a MgO precoated highly macroporous silica-alumina catalyst carrier (SA-5205) at different reaction temperatures (700-900 degrees C), O-2/CH4 ratios (0.3-0.45) and space velocites (20,000-100,000cc/g/h). The reaction temperature had a profound influence on the OCRM performance over the CoO/MgO/SA-5205 catalyst; the methane conversion, CO2 conversion and H-2 selectivity increased while the H-2/CO ratio decreased markedly with increasing reaction temperature. While the O-2/CH4 ratio did not strongly affect the CH4 and CO2 conversion and H-2 selectivity, it had an intense influence on the H-2/CO ratio. The CH4 and CO2 conversion and the H-2 selectivity decreased while the H-2/CO increased with increasing space velocity. The O-2/CH4 ratio and the reaction temperature could be used to manipulate the heat of the reaction for the OCRM process. Depending on the O-2/CH4 ratio and temperature the OCRM process could be operated in a mildly exothermic, thermal neutral or mildly endothermic mode. The OCRM reaction became almost thermoneutral at an OCRM reaction temperature of 850 degrees C, O-2/CH4 ratio of 0.45 and space velocity of 46,000 cc/g/h. The CH4 conversion and H-2 selectivity over the CoO/MgO/SA-5205 catalyst corresponding to thermoneutral conditions were excellent: 95% and 97%, respectively with a H-2/CO ratio of 1.8.

The catalyst calcined at 1400 degrees C (for 4 h) showed excellent activity/selectivity for the CPOM, OSRM and the OCRM reactions; furthermore no catalyst deactivation was observed for a period of 20 h. For the CPOM process, the selectivity for H-2 was &amp;gt; 95% at reaction temperatures &amp;gt; 650 degrees C however temperatures above 800 degrees C were required to achieve &amp;gt; 95% CO selectivity. While the reaction temperature had a considerable influence on the CPOM product H-2/CO ratio, the space velocity (at 850 degrees C) did not affect it to any significant extent. For the OSRM process, the H2O/CH4 ratio and the reaction temperature had a strong effect on the product H-2/CO ratio and the heat of the reaction; depending on the H2O/CH4 ratio and reaction temperature, the OSRM process could be operated in a mildly exothermic, thermoneutral or mildly endothermic mode. The CO2 conversion was very strongly affected by the reaction temperature in the OCRM process; reasonably high CO2 conversion ( &amp;gt; 40%) could only be obtained at high OCRM reaction temperatures ( &amp;gt; 850 degrees C). The exothermicity of the OCRM reaction was found to decrease with increasing reaction temperature. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V.

Catal., 233, 36, 2005). Herein we report the results on accelerated sulfur deactivation (0.74 mol% sulfur in feed) and corresponding regeneration (at 800 degrees C in 1:1 O-2 + N-2 flow) over these catalysts. The NiCoMgCeOx catalyst, due to a larger mobility of lattice oxygen, showed a considerably higher resistance to sulfur poisoning; the higher mobility of the lattice oxygen in case of the NiCoMgCeOx catalyst may be related to the presence of CeO2. During the deactivation process, the selectivity for H-2 was decreased to a much greater extent than that for CO. Regeneration studies showed that even after complete deactivation of the catalysts, the original activity/selectivity of both the catalysts could be completely restored after a simple regeneration process. Based on their exceptionally high thermal stability, high activity/selectivity and easily regenerability, the NiCoMOx, and NiCoMgCeOx catalysts appear to be very promising candidates for the CPOM process.
