Abstract
Electrocatalytic conversion of methane over Ag-, Pt-, Ni- and Pt+CeO2- based electrode-catalysts in a cell with a solid oxygen conducting ele ctrolyte: CH4, electrode-catalyst/0.9ZrO(2) + 0.1Y(2)O(3)\Pt + PrO2,ai r was studied at 660-850 degrees C and the ratio of methane and electr ochemically pumped oxygen flows of 0.8-2.0. Unlike Ag and Pt+CeO2 elec trodes, the Ni and Pt electrodes were found to be active electrode-cat alysts for partial oxidation of methane to syngas with the concentrati on ratio of [H-2]/[CO]approximate to 2.
