摘要 |
A self-started OSRM (oxidative steam reforming of methanol) process at room temperature for hydrogen production is disclosed. In the process, an aqueous methanol and oxygen are pre-mixed. The mixture is then fed to a Cu/ZnO-based catalyst to initiate an OSRM process at room temperature. The temperature of the catalyst bed, with suitable thermal isolation, may be raised automatically by the exothermic OSRM to enhance the conversion of methanol. A hydrogen yield of 2.4 moles per mole methanol from the process may be obtained.
