Screening of ceria-based catalysts for internal methane reforming in low temperature SOFC

Gaudillere, Cyril Vernoux, Philippe Mirodatos, Claude Caboche, Gilles Farrusseng, David 6th World Congress on Oxidation Catalysis (6WCOC) JUL 05-10, 2009 Lille, FRANCE; International audience; Ceria-based catalysts have been assessed for internal methane reforming at low temperature (400-600 C) in Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) A combinatorial library of 15 metal (Cu Pt Ni) supported ceria was prepared using wet impregnation method The ceria-based oxides are undoped or doped with metal transition (Zr) or by rare earth (Gd or Pr) The effect of the metal the dopant and the surface area on the catalytic performances was investigated in high-throughput manner using a 16-parallel reactor The catal…
