Abstract
- Direct methanation of CO <subscript>2</subscript> over ceria- and alumina-supported nickel catalysts in the feed stream containing methane and traces of H <subscript>2</subscript> S is reported. Stability tests for 20 h at 350 and 600 °C with a packed-bed reactor showed high resistance of the catalysts to sintering processes. Higher conversion at 350 °C was observed for ceria supported nickel catalyst. Thermodynamic analysis indicated that CO <subscript>2</subscript> contained in biogas can be converted to methane without carbon formation under specific reaction conditions. An introduction of CH <subscript>4</subscript> to CO <subscript>2</subscript> -H <subscript>2</subscript> feed stream led to the decrease in CO <subscript>2</subscript> conversion and CH <subscript>4</subscript> selectivity. An introduction of the trace amounts of H <subscript>2</subscript> S into the feed stream led to the fast drop of CO <subscript>2</subscript> conversion and CH <subscript>4</subscript> selectivity; higher durability (20 %) was observed for Al <subscript>2</subscript> O <subscript>3</subscript> than CeO <subscript>2</subscript> supported catalysts. An improved performance of catalysts coated onto high-pressure microchannel microreactors for the direct CO <subscript>2</subscript> methanation reaction applying model biogas mixture was demonstrated.<br /> (© 2021 Wiley-VCH GmbH.)
