Abstract:
A highly efficient 3D wood-derived carbon monolith reactor with a low tortuosity is demonstrated for high-temperature reaction applications, using catalytic steam reforming of biomass tar as the model system. Outstanding catalytic activity is achieved as the reactant gases flow through this 3D natural wood-derived catalyst, where over 99% toluene conversion and good stability at 700 °C are observed.
