Abstract
For safety reasons, distributed natural gas is mixed with a strong scent known as the odorant. While typically sulfur‐containing molecules are used for this purpose, a novel sulfur‐free odorant (Gasodor^TM^ S‐free^TM^) has been developed and introduced into the marketplace. Our thermodynamic analysis and experimental results show that the reforming of methane over a Rh/Ce~0.2~Gd~0.8~O~1,95‐δ~ catalyst is unaffected by the addition of Gasodor^TM^ S‐free^TM^. The odorant is converted completely in the reforming step, so no negative influence is expected in the subsequent process steps. Overall, the addition of Gasodor^TM^ S‐free^TM^ should not pose a problem when combined with fuel cell systems.
