The Effects of External Magnetic Field on performance of Ni and Co Catalysts in Partial Oxidation of Methane

In this study the influence of magnetic field on the performance of Ni/γ-Al2O3 and Co/γ-Al2O3 catalysts in the partial oxidation of methane (POM) reaction was investigated. The catalyst activities were determined in the temperature range 500-800 oC. At the temperature 700 oC, increase of selectivity of CO is 23.4% and 11.6% for conversion of CH4. It seems, for attaining higher catalytic activity, using magneto-modified catalysts with appropriate promoter at lower temperature will be effective.
