Abstract
Diesel is one of the best hydrogen systems, which has very high volumetric density $[kg\;H_2/m^3]\;(>100)\;and\;gravimetric\;density[\%\;H_2]\;(>\;15)$Several catalysts were selected for diesel reforming. 3 catalysts of our group (NECS-1, NECS-2, NECS-3) and 2 commercial catalysts (Sud-Chemie, Inc, FCR-HCl4, FCR-HC35) were used to reform diesel. NECS-1 showed the best performance to reform diesel. In addition to these results, we studied on reaction characteristics for better understanding about auto thermal reforming of diesel by investigating product gas concentrations and temperature Profiles along the catalyst bed. We found technological issues such as fuel delivery and thermal configuration between front exothermic part and rear endothermic part.
