| Abstract: | Partial oxidation of methane (POM) is a potential technology to increase the efficiency of synthesizing a mixture of CO and H-2 called syngas, in comparison to steam reforming processes. Recently, supported metals modified with Re have emerged as active catalysts for POM. However, the role of Re in this reaction has been unclear. Here, we demonstrate that the addition of Re to a Ru/Al2O3 catalyst changes the reaction mechanism. The bimetallic catalyst oxidizes CH4 to mainly CO via formate. After all of the O-2 is used, steam reforming and reverse water-gas shift take place to increase the yield of CO and H-2. This is in contrast to Ru/Al2O3, which catalyzes POM mostly by complete oxidation of CH4 to CO2 and H2O and subsequent reforming reactions. In the bimetallic catalyst, the main role of Ru is to reduce Re species, and the reduced Re species produces formate from CH4 and also accelerates the steam reforming reaction. The dual roles of Re increase the total catalytic performance. These results show that Re is a main player rather than a simple promoter in the catalytic reaction. |
