Abstract
⺠A Pd1Ga1 surface without Ga2O3 contact is inactive for CO2 formation in methanol steam reforming. ⺠In situ XPS spectroscopy showed that water activation is blocked on Pd1Ga1. ⺠The valence band electronic structure of Pd1Ga1 favors selective dehydrogenation to H2CO. ⺠In oxidative steam reforming, the Pd1Ga1 surface behaves like extended Pd. ⺠Thus, total methanol oxidation by O2 at low temperatures is predominant.
