Abstract

Transition metal oxide formulations for the partial oxidation<LF> (POX) reforming of isooctane were investigated for an onboard gasoline fuel processor. Ni/M/MgO/Al2O3 systems are more active than a commercial ICI catalyst. These catalysts showed better sulfur tolerance over the commercial ICI catalyst in the POX reforming of isooctane containing sulfur (Cs=100 ppm). There was no apparent deactivation or modi. cation of structure during 770 h onstream. It was found that Ni/(Fe,Co)/MgO/Al2O3 catalyst is a promising candidate as POX reforming catalyst for gasoline fuel processor applications.
