LOW TEMPERATURE SULFUR TOLERANT TAR REMOVAL WITH CONCOMITANT SYNTHESIS GAS CONDITIONING

摘要

A catalyst comprising NiO, a metal mixture comprising at least one of MoO3 or WO3, a mixture comprising at least one of SiO2 and A12O3, and P2O5. In this embodiment the metal sites on the catalyst are sulfided and the catalyst is capable of removing tar from a synthesis gas while performing methanation and water gas shift reactions at a temperature range from 300°C to 600°C.
