Perovskite-like catalysts for the catalytic flameless combustion of methane
Abstract
Modified LaCoO3 and LaMnO3 were investigated as catalysts for low
temperature flameless combustion of methane. Modifications were
carried out by the substitution part of La for Sr+2 and Ce+4, by the addition of 0,5 % of Pt or Pd and by the substitution with Ag, which have limited solubility in the perovskite structure and may exist as intraframework Ag+ and extraframework metallic silver. Catalysts were synthesized by flame pyrolysis, which lead to a significant increase of both surface area and thermal resistance in comparison with the catalysts prepared by traditional sol-gel method. Samples were mainly characterized by XRD, BET and TPR techniques. Catalytic activity for the flameless combustion of methane was investigated by means of bench scale continuous apparatus, equipped with a quadrupolar mass spectrometer. In addition the resistance of every catalysts against sulphur poisoning was tested by using tetrahydrothiophene (THT) as poisoning agent. In most cases modification of perovskites led to an activity improvement, which was much more evident in the case of silver substitution. All the FP-prepared catalysts showed full methane conversion below 600 °C, with CO2 and H2O as the sole detected products. Sr-substitution and addition of noble metals increased resistance to sulphur poisoning, while silver was not effective from this point of view, its main advantage being a substantial increase of the initial activity, which lead to satisfactory performance even after poisoning.
