Abstract

Hydrogen, a clean energy carrier, can be produced from renewable sources such as biomass and waste, but it is needed to develop new catalysts with high resistance against impurities. Ni/Al₂O₃ yolk-shell catalysts were prepared by different procedure for the steam reforming of methane reaction with alkali poisoning. Yolk-shell (ys) and porous yolk-shell (pys) materials were synthesized using a spray pyrolysis process. The physicochemical and structural properties of the prepared catalysts on the reaction performance and alkali resistance were investigated. All the yolk-shell catalysts exhibited high resistance to carbon deposition. The Ni/pys-Al₂O₃ catalyst showed the highest CH₄ conversion and the best stability at a gas hourly space velocity of 932,492 mL·g⁻¹·h⁻¹ even upon exposure to alkali hydroxide vapor. It also showed strong resistance to sintering, whereas the structures of the ys-Ni-Al₂O₃ and Ni/ys-Al₂O₃ catalysts were relatively degraded under the same conditions.
