Resumo

The aim of this research is to identify, by means of a thermodynamic analysis, the beneficial effects of La2O3 and CeO2 addition to catalysts used in biogas reforming. Operating conditions, under which deactivation of Ni catalyst by H2S poisoning and/or solid carbon deposition can be reduced or prevented, are determined. In this work, the stability of different phases of solid carbon – graphite and multi-walled carbon nanotubes – under biogas stream reforming atmosphere is analyzed. The results from the present study contribute to the development of multifunctional catalysts.
