Abstract

Since Pt is an expensive noble metal, enhancement of activity of Pt-based catalysts is important. In the present study, effects of reduction methods of Pt precursor on activity of supported platinum catalysts were investigated. Activities of the prepared catalysts were evaluated through conversion of biomass compounds to hydrogen-rich gas mixture by aqueous-phase reforming.
