Catalytic steam reforming of n-dodecane over high surface area Ce0.75Zr0.25O2 supported Ru catalysts

High surface area (HSA) Ce0.75Zr0.25O2 (CZ) supported Ru catalyst was synthesized by hydrothermal synthesis method with assistance of surfactant. Steam reforming of n-dodecane over Ru/HSA-CZ at higher LHSV (750 °C, LHSV = 36 mL/g h, S/C = 4) exhibits completed conversion and without significant deactivation.327
