Promoted Wire Arc Spray catalysts by TiO2 in partial oxidation of methanereaction

The catalysts activity over promoted metallic catalysts using wire arc spraying (WAS) was investigated in catalytic partial oxidation of methane (CPOM) to syngas. The catalysts were promoted by adding TiO2 and prepared in different environment, air and cold water. The CPOM reaction was done in a fixed bed reactor at temperature range 750-850°C. The results showed that CH4 conversion and CO selectivity become reduced respect to the WAS catalysts but H2/CO ratio was increased to the 1.92 that it is appropriate for chain hydrocarbon production process.
