| Research Abstract |
The activity for low-temperature methane oxidation over oxide-supported catalysts such as Pd/Al_2O_3, Pd/SnO_2, and Pd/Al_2O_3-36NiO was investigated. It was found that Pd/Al_2O_3 was deactivated most significantly due to water vapor, and that Pd/Al_2O_3-36NiO was most insensitive to water vapor. The catalytic activity of Pd/Al_2O_3 decreased monotonically as water vapor concentration increased, whereas Pd/SnO_2 and Pd/Al_2O_3-36NiO showed almost constant activity under higher water vapor concentrations.
The catalytic activity at high steam concentration was in the following order: Pd/SnO_2 >Pd/Al_2O_3-36NiO > Pd/Al_2O_3. Kinetic analysis with methane adsorption as the rate-limiting step was applied to evaluate the water inhibiting effect. Pd/Al_2O_3 displayed the most negative value of the enthalpy of water adsorption, while Pd/SnO_2 and Pd/Al_2O_3-36NiO exhibited similar water adsorption enthalpy.
