【 摘 要 】

The present contribution experimentally examined the combined effect of non-thermal plasma and Mn-based composite catalysts on CO2 reforming of toluene as a model compound of tars in synthesis gas production from biomass gasification and pyrolysis. The experimentation was performed using a fixed-bed reactor packed with a catalyst and incorporating a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) to generate non-thermal plasma in-situ. The effects of specific energy density (SED), catalyst loading, and CO2 concentration on the yields of H-2, CO and light hydrocarbons (such as CH4, C2H6 and C2H2) were systematically studied and a potential synergistic mechanism for the plasma catalytic reforming of toluene by CO2 is proposed. The experimental results indicate that Mn-based catalysts perform similarly well in the plasma catalytic reforming of toluene by CO2 as has previously been observed in the literature using O-2 as the reforming agent.
