Bio-alcohols such as Methanol, Ethanol and Glycerol are considered as excellent feedstocks for producing hydrogen-rich gas by steam reforming (SR) process due to their renewable production from biomass. Hydrogen is a renewable energy carrier that can be converted to electricity and heat in the solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC). An integrated steam reforming and SOFC technology is seems to be promising to produce electricity to meet energy demand locally. But, the main impediment to integrated SR and SOFC technology is deactivation of Ni catalyst due to coke formation. One of the ways, to increase nickel catalyst life time is preparing the catalysts in the form structural precursors mainly hydrotalcites. Ni-Cu-Fe (NCF) based hydrotalcites with steam reforming and water gas shift bifunctional properties is expected to be active for producing hydrogen rich gas from steam reforming of bio-alcohols. |
