Abstract

In order to develop a gasoline fuel processor system for integration with a proton exchanged membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), we investigated autothermal reforming (ATR) of iso-octane, high temperature water gas shift (HTS) reaction and low temperature shift (LTS) reaction. We developed a gasoline fuel processor system with three different reaction stages. The transition metal oxide catalysts were prepared by the method of incipient wetness for ATR reaction whereas the molybdenum carbide catalyst were synthesized by temperature programmed carburization method for LTS reaction. It was found that the prepared reforming and LTS catalysts were more active than those of the commercial catalysts for both the reactions. The fuel processor system charged with prepared ATR,Commercial HTS,and prepared LTS catalysts, it was found that the concentration of CO in hydrogen-rich stream was reduced to less than 2500 ppm.
