Zusammenfassung:This paper deals with the kinetics of CH 4 dissociation on a model Pd/Al 2 O 3 catalyst. The adsorption and conversion of CH 4 over reduced or oxidized catalysts were studied by applying a temporal analysis of products (TAP) reactor. The experiments are discussed in the light of a selected mechanism involving CH 4 decomposition into carbon and hydrogen that cannot be simplified to a global reaction because of the importance of CH 2 ad-species. This mechanism was modified for oxidized catalysts including steps for the formation of water involving the recombination of two neighbor OH ads species. TAP experiments over the oxidized catalyst confirm the involvement of the metal/support interface, with a spill-over effect previously characterized on the reduced catalyst. Optimized kinetics parameters were compared to theoretical values showing a relatively good agreement.
