DME, propane and CO: The oxidation, steam reforming and WGS over Pt/Al2O3. The effect of aging and presence of water

- Water inhibits DME and C3H8 oxidation, while increases activity for CO oxidation.
- Aging in (SO2 + NO + O2 + H2O) at 250 °C for 22 h causes significant Pt sintering.
- SO2 aging (+H2 reduction), enhances the oxidation activity for DME and C3H8.
- The sulfur aging and H2 reduction, have no impact on DME-SR.
- The sulfur aging and H2 reduction completely deactivates propane-SR.
