The Pd/Al_2O_3 catalyst system isfully discussed. The review mainly focuses on the kinetic aspects of methane oxidation over thiscatalyst, and methane activation behavior over Pd and PdO phases (the form of PdO on the surface,transient behavior, the nature of the active sites, the influence of metal particle size and theirstructure sensitivities, and so on). Some Pd catalysts supported on other oxides besides the Al_2O_3support are briefly discussed. Possible routes of non-noble metal catalysts as substitutes for thePd catalyst are also proposed.展开更多

文摘This paper reviews recent developments in complete oxidation of methane atlow temperatures over noble metal catalysts in the past 20 years. The Pd/Al_2O_3 catalyst system isfully discussed. The review mainly focuses on the kinetic aspects of methane oxidation over thiscatalyst, and methane activation behavior over Pd and PdO phases (the form of PdO on the surface,transient behavior, the nature of the active sites, the influence of metal particle size and theirstructure sensitivities, and so on). Some Pd catalysts supported on other oxides besides the Al_2O_3support are briefly discussed. Possible routes of non-noble metal catalysts as substitutes for thePd catalyst are also proposed.
