✦ Synopsis
With naphthalene as a model compound, catalytic cracking experiments on biomass tar were made on Ni-dolomite catalysts. The performance of catalyst preparation, activity, coke formation and regeneration were analysed. The results showed that the ratio of the one-step conversion of naphthalene was 95% at space velocity 0.81 h À1 and 700 1C; with saturated wet air as regeneration gas, the regeneration time was within 0.5 h; compared with thermal cracking at the same reaction temperature, the catalytic cracking was propitious to deep cracking of naphthalene.

Autothermal reforming (ATR) has several advantages for fuel cell applications, such as a compact reactor structure and fast response. Using oxidation reactions inside the reactor, ATR does not have the external heat transfer limitations associated with steam reforming. However, mass and heat transf
