Abstract

PURPOSE:To enhance the steam reforming activity of hydrocarbon under a low pressure condition, by forming a catalyst for the steam reforming of hydrocarbon by supporting a specific amount of ruthenium and barium as catalytic components by an alumina carrier. CONSTITUTION:A catalyst for the steam reforming of hydrocarbon is prepared by supporting 0.0-20wt% of ruthenium on the basis of an elemental metal and 0.1-12wt% of barium as BaO by an alumina carrier. More concretely, there is a method for impregnating alumina preliminarily prepared with a ruthenium compound and a barium compound or a method for preparing a barium containing alumina carrier by coprecipitating an alumina precursor and a barium component and impregnating the obtained carrier with a ruthenium component to support ruthenium.

Steam reforming catalysts containing platinum group metals as active metal components have been known for a long time. For example, special public service 39-2
Publication No. 9435 describes a steam reforming catalyst in which a platinum group metal component is supported on a refractory inorganic oxide, typically alumina, and an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal compound is added to this catalyst. It is also stated that the presence of carbon reduces the amount of carbon deposited on the catalyst. Also, JP-A-49
According to Publication No. 11795, a catalyst supported on alumina together with a platinum group metal component, particularly a ruthenium component, zinc 41ide or a zinc compound, is said to be more active than conventional steam reforming catalysts containing platinum group metals. There is. In addition, JP-A No. 51-52991 teaches a three-component nickel ruthenium-alumina catalyst which can be manufactured by a coprecipitation method and to which an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal compound can be optionally added. Furthermore, Japanese Patent Publication No. 52-2922 introduces a steam reforming catalyst containing nickel and/or cobalt, a platinum group metal, an alkaline earth metal, and a carrier.

As mentioned above, a steam reforming catalyst in which a platinum group metal component and an alkaline earth metal component are supported on a carrier such as alumina is conceptually (this is publicly known), but the conventional technology is based on a platinum group metal group and an alkaline earth metal component. Each metal belonging to the metal group is treated almost in the same way, and in particular, no study has been made as to which combination of platinum group metal and which alkaline earth metal is optimal for a steam reforming catalyst.

In view of the current situation, the present inventors have investigated the effect of the above-mentioned steam reforming catalyst, which is conceptually known, on the steam reforming reaction of various metals that have been considered usable therein. As a result of re-examination, we found that among the platinum group metals, ruthenium has the best catalytic activity, and that the catalytic activity of ruthenium is the only one selected from the alkaline earth metal group. As a result, it was found that there was further improvement.

The catalyst for steam reforming of hydrocarbons according to the present invention is characterized in that ruthenium as a platinum group metal component and lithium as an alkaline earth metal component are fully supported on an alumina carrier. Therefore, it goes without saying that even if ruthenium is used, all alkaline earth metals other than barium are used, or even if ζlium is used but a platinum group metal other than ruthenium is used, the catalyst of the present invention It is not possible to obtain a highly active catalyst comparable to that of

In the catalyst of the present invention, the content of the ruthenium component is in the range of 0.01 to 20% by weight of alumina in terms of elemental metal, preferably 0.1 to 10% by weight, and the content of the barium component is The amount of alumina can be well over 0.1 to 12% by weight in terms of BaO.Such a catalyst can be manufactured by a catalyst manufacturing method common in the art, for example, by adding ruthenium to pre-prepared alumina. The present invention can be carried out by impregnating a compound and a barium compound in a bath solution, or by co-precipitating an alumina precursor and a barium component to prepare a barium-containing alumina carrier, and then impregnating and supporting the ruthenium component. It is possible to produce a catalyst of
The present invention is not concerned with the production method used as long as a catalyst consisting of alumina and a predetermined amount of a ruthenium component and a ruthenium component can be obtained.

Furthermore, when using the catalyst of the present invention for steam reforming of hydrocarbons, the same reaction conditions as in the case of using conventional platinum group metal-containing catalysts can be adopted, but there are no special restrictions. It never happens. However, the catalyst of the present invention is particularly effective in the early stages of steam reforming operations and also when steam reforming is carried out under low pressure conditions. By the way, conventional ruthenium-containing steam reforming catalysts have a pressure of 10 to 30 kg/cm" and a temperature of 400 to 45
In steady operation under normal reaction conditions of 0"C, stable activity is shown with little carbon precipitation, but the disadvantages are that initial deterioration is large immediately after the start of operation, and the reaction rate is greatly reduced at low pressure. However, according to the catalyst of the present invention containing both a ruthenium component and a dylium component, the above-mentioned drawbacks can be greatly improved.
