RESUMO
ABSTRACT Different basic materials, such as K-L zeolite, K-Al2O3, K-Mg/Al mixed oxide and MgO, were used as supports of Pt-catalysts for the dry reforming of methane (DR) reaction. The effects of the distribution of basic strength in the support on the metal-support properties and catalyst performance were evaluated. The density of strong and the total basic sites decreased as follows: MgO>K(Mg-Al) >K-Al2O3>K-L. The total basic sites decrease from 214 to 23 µmol CO2. g-1, for MgO and KL, respectively. Pt catalysts supported on materials with high density of strong basic sites such as MgO were the most adequate for the DR reaction. An increase in the dehydrogenation velocity of 12.1 to 25.2 mol h-1 g-1 was observed between Pt/KL and Pt/MgO, which indicates a higher metallic dispersion of the latter catalyst. With respect to the DR reaction, both catalysts have a similar CO2 conversion, but the CH4 conversion and the H2/CO ratio increase from 71.1 to 83.0 % and 0.5 to 0.73, respectively. The best catalytic behaviour of Pt/MgO would be related with the good interaction between the metal and the basic support. The methane conversion and the H2/CO ratios obtained by DR reaction correlate quite well with the basicity of the different catalysts.
