Abstract

The aim of this study is to improve the durability performance of catalysts for a catalytic combustor and to obtain operating conditions for stable combustion of the catalytic combustor. It was attempted to improve the durability of the catalysts by adding a promoter in order to reduce the cost of replacing Pt catalyst while maintaining stability. The main catalyst used in the study was Pt and the promoters were Ni and La. Pure Pt3/γ-Al2O3 catalyst without promoter was promoted to fast sintering states under harsh conditions and catalytic combustion was turned off, whereas the catalysts added La, Ni as promoter were showed relatively slow sintering states. It can be concluded that the promoter La, Ni effectively contributes to the improvement of the durability of the Pt catalyst, and it is possible to get longer durability and more stable duration than the conventional catalytic combustor.
