Abstract: | The reaction kinetics of methane decomposition to yield hydrogen and carbon has been investigated comparing different types of carbonaceous catalysts: two ordered mesoporous carbons (CMK-3 and CMK-5) and two commercial carbon blacks (CB-bp and CB-v). The evolution of the reaction rate along the time has been analyzed concluding that it is governed by different and opposite events: reduction of active sites by carbon deposition, autocatalytic effects of the carbon deposits and pore blockage and diffusional constraints. A relatively simple kinetic model has been developed that fits quite well the experimental reaction rate curves in spite of the complexity of the involved phenomena. |
