Development of a Replaceable Microreactor Coated with a CuZnFe Nanocatalyst for Methanol Steam Reforming

چکیده مقاله

A methanol steam microreactor with a replaceable catalytically coated plate structure was designed. A splitting-jointing flow (SJF) design was proposed to increase the efficiency. Stainless-steel plates were coated with a Cu/Zn/Fe nanocatalyst. Electrophoretic deposition served as a uniform and controllable coating technique to evaluate the performance of the nanocatalyst and the microchannel design. The functioning of the SJF design for methanol conversion was found to be only slightly dependent on the plate ...
