| Abstract: | Steam reforming of methanol on various supported Cu catalysts was examined. Supports strongly affected catalyst activity and, among the catalysts tested, Cu catalyst supported on large-surface-area ZnAl2O4 showed the highest activity, which, to the best of our knowledge, was higher than those for the supported catalysts reported so far. For supported Cu catalysts, two species were observed. One was a dispersed Cu species having strong interaction between Cu and support, and the other was an isolated Cu species. The activity of the former species strongly depended on supports. |
