What is The combustion of methane on platinum—alumina fibre catalysts—I: Kinetics and mechanism about?

As a part of a study of a convectwe-drffuswe type catalytic combustor, the oxldatlon of methane has been studed over platmum supported on porous and non-porous alumma fibre New and used catalysts have been carefully characterlsed, and the kmetlcs of the reaction have been measured at temperatures above and below 815 K, where a change m the apparent actwation energy was found to occur Companson mth Langmuir-Hmshelwood models suggests that the mechanism mvolves the reactlon between adsorbed methane and oxygen adsorbed or m the gas phase This mechamsm IS supported by the charactensation studies, which also suggest that the formatlon of carbonaceous mtermedlates may affect the reaction sclectlvlty Permanent catalyst deactivation occurs as a result of the smtermg of platmum or of alumma, the latter e&t IS accelerated I; the presence of steam
