✦ Synopsis


The catalytic effects of a series of alkali metal salts in promoting the gasification of a graphite powder by carbon dioxide and water vapor have been studied by thermogravimetry between 700 and 1100°C. Lithium salts, specifically the carbonate and hydroxide, were the most active catalysts for both reactions. Cyclic processes which may account for the observed catalytic effects were evaluated from the standpoint of thermodynamic feasibility.
