| Abstract | A new type of solar heated reformers have been developed in recent years. In these reactors, called volumetric reformers, concentrated solar radiation directly illuminates the catalyst through a transparent window. This new type of solar reformer can operate at higher temperatures (1000–1100 °C), since the surface temperature limit of a regular metal tube reactor used in the industry is eliminated and a much higher heating rate is feasible. In the last few years the Weizmann Institute has gathered experience in developing high temperature steam reforming catalysts for its “DIAPR-Kippod” based volumetric reformer. The configuration of the absorber in this reformer is an array of ceramic pins. The thermal stability of the catalysts is crucial for the viability of such reactors. Ru/Al2O3 catalysts promoted with Mn oxides are studied. The effect of Mn on the dispersion and sintering of the Ru particles is investigated in the present work with the aid of TEM and EDS. It was found that addition of Mn oxides decreases in the rate of the sintering of the Ru particles. Catalytic elements for use in a volumetric reformer have been developed and tested. The Ru/Al2O3 catalyst promoted with Mn oxides was supported on ceramic pins (made of alumina) by wash coating. The long-term test confirmed the chemical and thermal stability of the catalyst even after operating for 500 hours at 1100 °C. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
