Catalytic hydrogenation of a carbon was investigated at a constant temperature. The reaction occurred in two stages as observed therlno~ravimetrically. For a nickel-catalyzed reaction at 540Β°C about a half of active carbon was rapidly gasified to methane and the remaining carbon was gasified at a v

β¦ Synopsis
Formation of carbon on nickel sheet from benzene vapor carried by hydrogen was studied at a temperature range from 520 to 730Β°C. A maximum rate was observed at about 63o"C, above which the deposition rate decreased rapidly. The carbon formed was hydrogenated in situ. Methane was the main gaseous product and a m~imum rate was observed at about 67OY. Very high reactivity of deposited carbon toward hydrog~~tion was ascribed to the catalytic action of nickel particles dispersed in the carbon. The hydrogenation rates were divided into three zones and possible interpretations are discussed. A mechanism which is a reverse process to deposition was suggesled. The decrease of the hydrogenation rate at higher temperatures was due to the equilibrium among carbon, hydrogen and methane, where carbon was more reactive than graphite.

The effect of hydrogen sulfide on the catalytic activity of nickel has been investigated in the hydrogasification of activated carbon. The low-temperature gasification activity in the range of 400-700" C was seriously suppressed when hydrogen sulfide was added to the hydrogen stream. The carbon conv
