摘要
Promoter MgO on 10% CeO2/Al2O3 oxygen carrier was investigated for direct partial oxidation of methane to syngas in molten salt. The MgO content of 0.5%, 1%, 2%, 3% and 4% on the 10%CeO2/Al2O3 oxygen carriers in experiments were prepared at the temperature of 750℃, respectively. The methane conversion, H2 and CO selectivity was measured on these prepared oxygen carriers at different reaction temperature. The results showed that the 3% MgO on 10%CeO2/Al2O3 had the best activity, and the CH4 conversion and CO selectivity reached 92.58% and 87.64% at 875℃, respectively. The effect of different calcination temperature on 3% MgO as promoter on 10% CeO2/Al2O3 oxygen carrier was investigated. The results of BET indicated that oxygen carrier had the largest surface area at 750℃. When the calcined temperature was too high there would be a negative effect on oxygen carrier activity.
