Production of fuel-cell grade H2 by sorption enhanced steam reforming of acetic acid as a model compound of biomass-derived bio-oil

Fuel-cell grade H2 has been produced by the sorption enhanced steam reforming (SESR) of acetic acid, a model compound of the bio-oil obtained from the fast pyrolysis of biomass. A Pd/Ni–Co catalyst derived from a hydrotalcite-like material (HT) with dolomite as CO2 sorbent was used in the process. A...

A Pd/Ni–Co catalyst derived from a hydrotalcite-like material (HT) with dolomite as CO2 sorbent was used in the process. A fixed-bed reactor with three temperature zones was employed to favor the catalytic steam reforming reaction in the high-temperature segment, the SESR reaction in the intermediate-temperature part, as well as the water-gas shift (WGS) and CO2 capture reactions in the low-temperature segment. Different conditions of pressure, temperature, steam/C molar ratio and weight hourly space velocity (WHSV) in the feed were evaluated. Higher steam/C molar ratios and lower WHSV values facilitated the production of H2 and reduced the concentrations of CH4, CO and CO2 in the produced gas. A fuel-cell grade H2 stream with a H2 purity of 99.8 vol.% and H2 yield of 86.7% was produced at atmospheric pressure, with a steam/C ratio of 3, a WHSV of 0.893 h−1 and a temperature of 575 °C in the intermediate part of the reactor (675 °C in the upper segment and 425 °C in the bottom part). At high pressure conditions (15 atm) a maximum H2 concentration of 98.31 vol.% with a H2 yield of 79.81% was obtained at 725 °C in the intermediate segment of the reactor (825 °C in the upper segment and 575 °C in the bottom part). Under these conditions an effluent stream with a CO concentration below 10 ppm (detection limit) was obtained at both low and high pressure, making it suitable for direct use in fuel cell applications.This work was carried out with financial support from the Spanish MINECO (Project ENE2014-53515-P), co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and the Principado de Asturias (PCTI 2013-2017, GRUPIN14-079)Peer reviewedElsevierMinisterio de Economía y Competitividad (España)Principado de AsturiasConsejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas [https://ror.org/02gfc7t72]201620162015info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501Postprintinfo:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersionhttp://hdl.handle.net/10261/134229reponame:DIGITAL.CSIC.
