Enhancing H2 and CO production from glycerol using bimetallic surfaces. Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • Scratching the surface: The reactions of oxygenates such as glycerol are important for the production of H2. Temperature-programmed desorption experiments have revealed an increased production of H2 on the Ni surface monolayer on Pt(111) (Ni-Pt-Pt(111)). Glycerol reforming activity trends are similar to previous results for ethylene glycol and ethanol, demonstrating that smaller oxygenates can be used as good models for reforming of larger, biomass-derived oxygenates. 2008 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.KGaA, Weinheim.
