2006 AIChE Annual Meeting

Session: Catalytic Hydrogen Generation - General II

Catalytic generation of hydrogen for methanol or ammonia synthesis, on-purpose H2 for refineries, for vehicles, and for energy generation is very much a part of the catalysis landscape. This session addresses fundamentals of catalysis related to all aspects of hydrogen generation with fossil as well as biorenewable feedstocks, and includes reactions such as water gas shift. Papers include theory, kinetics, catalyst preparation, and characterization.
