Experimental study on two-stage selective methanation of CO over Ni/Ru-based dual catalysts
To address the challenges of deep CO removal from hydrogen produced by carbon-based fuel reforming and the replacement of Ru-based noble metal catalysts with non-noble meta
ls
a two-stage selective methanation of CO (CO-SMET) technology over Ni/Ru-based dual catalysts was proposed. Ru-based and Ni-based catalysts with Cl loading were prepared
and their CO-SMET catalytic performances and CO methanation selectivities were investigated under inlet gas H

/CO

/CO (volume fractions of 75.0%
24.5% and 0.5%
respectively). The results show that
in one-stage CO-SMET
the outlet CO concentration (mole fraction
the same below) is 17 μmol/mol
and the temperature is 310 ℃
and the CO methanation selectivity is 75.1% over Cat-10Ni5Cl
whereas the outlet CO concentration is 32 μmol/mol
and the temperature is 250 ℃
and the CO methanation selectivity is 65.9% over Cat-1.5Ru4.5Cl. In the two-stage CO-SMET over Ni/Ru-based dual catalysts
the outlet CO concentration is 8 μmol/mol
and the temperatures of first-stage and second-stage are 280 ℃ and 230 ℃
respectively
with the CO methanation selectivity of 80.0%. Cat-10Ni5Cl
(as the first-stage catalyst) exhibits high CO methanation selectivity at lower temperatures
and Cat-1.5Ru4.5Cl
(as the second-stage catalyst) exhibits high activity at low temperatures. Two-stage CO-SMET enables deep CO removal and partially replaces Ru-based noble metal catalysts.
