Description

PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF A CATALYTIC SPECIE USING
ELECTRO-DEPOSITION
The present invention relates to a new family of catalysts for the partial oxidation (CPO) of hydrocarbons, Steam Methane Reforming (SMR), Steam Naphtha Reforming or dry reforming (DR). The catalytic production of synthesis gas is operated under drastic conditions, mainly temperature conditions, which are very often detrimental for the stability of the catalyst. The catalytic partial oxidation of hydrocarbons (CPO) is for example a strong exothermic reaction and the first part of the catalytic bed can reach a temperature up to 10000C. On the contrary, the steam methane reforming (SMR) and the dry reforming (DR) being endothermic reactions, it is thus necessary to heat up the catalytic bed close to 10000C in order to achieve the maximal conversion of the hydrocarbons species and the heat transfer to the catalytic bed must be done very quickly, generally less than one second and preferably less than 0.1 second, to decrease its contact time with the reacting species, in order to limit the carbon formation. These reactions thus need use very stable catalysts in terms of metal sintering, support chemical, mechanical resistance and particle dispersion.
Furthermore, the activity of the catalyst activity may affect the thermal profile of the reactor: in this respect, it can be stressed that, the catalytic partial oxidation of hydrocarbons (CPO) must be carefully managed to avoid the formation of hot spots in the reactor, which can light on the homogeneous reaction; the endothermic reactions need a lot of energy which is brought by heating device heating the wall of the reactor. The homogeneity of the reaction could thus be facilitated even improved if the catalytic material leads to a good thermal transfer. Moreover, active catalysts can improve the efficiency of these systems, if they are deposited on a support having a high thermal conductivity. Special and high-temperature resistant alloys typically offer this property The catalytic bed must also induce to the smallest pressure drop, a pressure drop being detrimental to the reaction, while having the lowest bulk density mainly for economical reasons. The best compromise in terms of morphology and of geometry would probably be the use of support of a specified metallic foam kind.
Another key point concerns the method of deposition of the active phase on the support. As the specific surface area of a metallic support is null, a direct standard method of deposition such as the impregnation method, is unsuitable.
Several publications disclose the way of manufacturing supported metal catalysts, which are suitable for the oxidative reforming of hydrocarbons.
Japanese patent 5,186,203 discloses a catalytic element for SMR consisting of nickel fine particles which are impregnated on a porous alumina layer itself linked to the inner surface of a metallic reforming tubes.
Ismagilov et al. (Studies in surface Science and Catalysis, Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2000, Vol. 130 C, 2759) disclosed a catalytic heat-exchanging (HEX) tubular reactor to combining both an exothermic combustion and an endothermic steam reforming of methane, which comprises in the combustion part, a perovskite or Platinum supported catalyst on a Nickel-Chromium foam (Ni-Cr foam) material and in the steam reforming part, a Nickel-containing foam catalyst. US Patent US 6,630,078 B2 discloses the use of a metallic material as a catalytically support for the SMR reaction performed at low contact time value.
US Patent Application US 2003/0,185,750 A1 and International Application
WO 02/066,371 disclose, that the active phase (Ni, Rh, Pt, Ru...) is deposited on a ceramic spinel (Mg-AI2Os, La-AI2Os, Ce-AI2Os) even supported on a support standard alumina or on special metallic foam. Such a catalyst is used in SMR reactions, which the contact time required for, is shorter than 1 second.
US Patent Application US 2004/0,157,939 A1 discloses a catalytically active metal which is deposited on a silicon carbide support and used in the catalytic partial oxidation of methane to synthesis gas. International Application WO 2004/087,312 discloses a simple and effective method for coating the surface of a metallic carrier material with a Ni catalyst, that can be used even if the carrier material has a complicated surface geometry. US Patent Application US 2005/0,084,441 A1 discloses the preparation of C- nanochips, which are suitable and highly conductive supports for metals or metal oxides from the metals from Groups VIII, IB and INB of Periodic Table of Elements, and which may be used in catalytic reactions such as oxidation, hydrogenation, reforming or steam reforming.
Japanese Patent 5,007,298 discloses a porous metal catalyst usable for the steam reforming of hydrocarbons, which can be made by forming a catalyst layer comprising a porous ceramic layer carrying a catalyst powder, which is carried on the surface of a porous metal catalyst carrier having a 3-dimensional reticular structure. A composite ceramic powder formed by coating the ceramic powder with the catalyst powder is then fixed and carried on the surface of the skeleton of the porous metal carrier having the 3-dimensional reticular structure.
The deposition of the active phase is carried out by classical methods such as dip coating, successive wash-coats, organometallic vapor deposition, plasma deposition, or chemical vapor deposition, However, the metallic support must previously be coated by a ceramic layer such as MgAI2O4, AI2O3, AI2O3 +CeO2, SiC Ca-AI2O3, or La-AI2O3, but the coating must have the lowest thickness as possible, in order to create a minimal surface area which is necessary to fix the active phase. The interest of this ceramic coating on the alloy foam is not only to ensure the catalytic active phase dispersion but also to protect the alloy along the time, under industrial conditions from corrosion, metal dusting or oxidation effects. The quality of this coating directly impacts the performances of the material in terms of stability or of catalytic activity and the catalytically active phase is not in direct contact with the metallic support. The known coating techniques cited above are however not easy to be worked on.
The starting point of the work of the inventors are two papers which reported the bulk synthesis of Hydrotalcite compounds containing Co or Ni as bivalent cations and Al as trivalent cations by cathodic reduction of nitrates (L. Indira and P.V. Kamath, J. Mater. Chem. 4 (1994) 1487; Dixit and P.V. Kamath, J, Power Sources 56 (1995) 97]. On this basis, an extensive study has been performed to find the best experimental conditions to modify different electrodes by one-step electro- synthesis of Ni/AI Hydrotalcite (E. Scavetta, B. Ballarin, M.Giorgetti, I. Carpani, F. Cogo and D. Tonelli, J. New Mater. Electrochem. Systems 7 (2004 - 43), evidencing the key role of time and potential to control the film thickness.

The following description is an illustration of the claimed process without limiting it. Experimental report Introduction
In the present preparations, reagent grade purity chemicals have been employed; the Ni/AI Hydrotalcite compound was electro-synthesized starting from freshly prepared solution of Ni and Al nitrates in doubly distilled water. Two thin copper wires inserted inside the porous pellet performed the electrical contact on a single pellet of metallic foam of FeCrAIY, sold by PORVAIR (USA).
A thin film of Ni/AI Hydrotalcite compound was deposited on the pellet surface by cathodic reduction of an aqueous solution containing 0.225 M of Nickel nitrate (Ni(NO3)2], 0.075 M Aluminum nitrate [AI(NO3)3] and 0.3 M Potassium nitrate [K(NO3)]. The electrochemical reaction was carried out at constant potential in the cathodic chamber of a H-form cell at the potential of -1.2 V versus saturated calomel electrode (SCE) for different deposition times (from 30 to 1000 s). Results a) A test of electrochemical deposition of a Ni/AI Hydrotalcite on a FeCrAIY foam was made with a time of deposition of 1000 s. The pellets were covered by a green layer, which is typical of the Ni containing hydrotalcite precursor (as shown in Figure 4), even if the global appearance of the pellet was not homogeneous. This is probably due to the fact that the electrodes have been connected at one side of the foam. b) The obtained pellets were calcined at 9000C for 12 h (as shown on
Figure 5), to form ex HT Ni/AI deposited on FeCrAIY pellets and reduced in H2/N2 flow at 7500C. c) The sample was tested in a CPO laboratory pilot, in order to evaluate its activities. Figure 6 reports the catalytic activity as methane conversion (CH4 conv.) and selectivity values in hydrogen (sel. H2) and CO (sel. CO) of the ex HT Ni/AI deposited on FeCrAIY (by electrochemical method) in different reaction conditions (Temperatures on the first layer of the monolith: 500 0C for the test at an oven temperature of 500 0C with the mixture CH4/O2/He = 2/1/20 v/v; 766 0C for the test at an oven temperature of 750 0C with the mixture CH4/O2/He = 2/1/20 v/v; 790 0C for the test at an oven temperature of 750 0C with the mixture CH4/θ2/He = 2/1/4 v/v and 762 for the test at an oven temperature of 750 0C with the mixture CH4/O2/He = 2/1/1 v/v).
The sample is not active at 5000C and using the CH4/O2/He = 2/1/20 v/v mixture (far from thermodynamic conditions), but increasing the oven temperature at 7500C, the activity increases. The activities at 750°C of different feedings (CH4 /O2/He = 2/1/20, 2/1/4 and 2/1/1 v/v) were comparable to that of the sample ex-HT Ni0.02Mg0.63AI0.35 (best formulation obtained during the previous CPO study) and to classical catalysts (0,1 wt.% Rh on AI2Os). d) The performances of the Hydrotalcite supported on alloy foam are compared to:
1- the best sample (optimized formulation) made by a slurry of ex-HT sil Ni8Rh0 i5Mg6oAl3i 85 (calcined at 9000C) deposited on beads of α-AI2θ3 coated with a spheralite / Disperal and tested previously during the CPO study. The results of performances are reported on Figure 7.
2- a standard catalyst of 0.1 % Rh impregnated on a-alumina. The CPO performances are reported on Figure 8. The performances of a non optimized hydrotalcite deposited by electrochemical method on a metallic foam are close to those of the best sample of Hydrotalcite deposited on alumina by a standard method, or close to those of a standard commercial catalyst constituted of 0.1 % Rh on a-alumina. These performances would certainly be improved by means of an optimized hydrotalcite deposited by electrochemical method on a metallic foam.
