摘要:
Stream reforming ethanol can not only produce hydrogen on board and solve the problem of storage, but also realize the mixed combustion of fuel with hydrogen-rich reformed gas and improve engine emissions. To get the optimal experiment method, the experiment was performed on a self-designed apparatus that could provide the similar temperature as the engine exhaust gas. The effects of reaction temperature, water/ethanol molar ratio and gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) on hydrogen concentration in the outlet gases were experimentally investigated over Cu49Zn21Al18Zr12 and Pt/CZO/Al2O3 catalyst. Results show that hydrogen productivity through steam reforming of ethanol over Pt/CZO/Al2O3 catalyst is higher than Cu49Zn21Al18Zr12 catalyst, especially when the reaction temperature is up to 823 K. The average values of hydrogen concentration are 40.26% and 47.78% when the reaction temperature ranges from 723 K to 973 K, GHSV is 720 h-1, water/ethanol molar ratio are 6:1 and 4:1, respectively. However, as the Cu49Zn21Al18Zr12 catalyst gains a relatively higher productivity over 873 K and lower cost than Pt/CZO/Al2O3 catalyst, steam reforming of ethanol over Cu49Zn21Al18Zr12 catalyst may become a promising and practical way for producing hydrogen on vehicles.
