Abstract
Catalytic autothermal reforming (ATR) of synthetic diesel and JP8 over supported metal catalysts has been investigated in the present study. Bimetallic catalysts exhibited superior performance compared to the commercial catalyst and the monometallic counterparts. BET, temperature-programmed desorption (TPD), temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) and XPS were utilized for characterizing these formulations, which showed that the enhanced stability is due to a strong metal-metal and metal-support interaction in the catalyst.
