Alloy catalysts with monolith supports for methanation of coal-derived gases. Phase 2. Quarterly technical progress report, July 23, 1976--October 22, 1976. [6 refs. ; Co; Ni--MoO/sub 3/; Ni--Ru; Ni--Rh; Ni--Pt; Ni--Co; Ni/Al/sub 2/O/sub 3/]
Accomplishments during the sixth quarter of investigation of new pellet- and monolithic-supported alloy catalysts for methanation of coal synthesis gas are presented. Alumina-supported Co (20 wt percent metal loading), Ni-MoO/sub 3/ (20 percent), and several Ni/Al/sub 2/O/sub 3//monolith samples (10 and 20 percent) were prepared. Hydrogen adsorption data were obtained for alumina-supported Co, Ni-MoO/sub 3/, Ni-Ru, Ni-Rh, Ni-Pt, and Ni-Co before and after exposure to 10 ppM H/sub 2/S and for 2 fresh monolithic-supported Ni catalysts. Differential activity tests were conducted for pellet-supported Co, Ni-MoO/sub 3/, Ni-Ru, and Ni-Rh (before and after poisoning) and for three monolithic Ni catalysts at 225 and 250/sup 0/C, 20.5 psia, and a space velocity of 30,000 hr/sup -1/. Conversion vs. temperature studies were conducted on pellet-supported Ni and Co catalysts in the absence and presence of water and on monolithic Ni catalysts at 2 different space velocities. A test to measure effects of C deposition was conducted for 3 percent Ni/Al/sub 2/O/sub 3/.
