Steam reforming of n-butane over Ni/δ-Al2O3and Pt-Ni/δ-Al2O3catalysts was studied at temperatures between 578 and 678K. The major difference between the two catalysts was found to be at 648K, at which Pt-Ni/δ-Al2O3showed superior performance in terms of selective hydrogen production that resulted in lower carbon dioxide and methane formation. Carbon monoxide was not observed over either catalyst at 648K, but was produced in small quantities at 678K. No coke formation was detected under the reaction conditions used. Both catalysts exhibited activities increasing with temperature. At 678K, complete n-butane conversion was achieved over bimetallic Pt-Ni, while 67% conversion was obtained over Ni. Studies for evaluating reaction kinetics over the Pt-Ni/δ-Al2O3catalyst conducted under differential conditions at 648K gave reaction orders of 1.20 and −0.18 with respect to n-butane and steam, respectively. Activation energy of the reaction was found to be 80.7±7.7kJ/mol in the 603–668K range.
