Isotopic Labelling in the Dry Reforming of Methane
EMSL Project ID
2064
Abstract
The objective of the experiment is to determine the degree to which the carbon in a fresh carbide catalyst participates in the dry reforming of methane. This will be accomplished by utilizing C13 labelled methane and then monitoring the fraction of the carbon in the product carbon monoxide, which is C13. We wish to use the RXM-100 apparatus for this experiment. Since it is capable of high temperatures (900 C is required) and is equipped with an on-line MS, it will be ideal for our purposes.
