Abstract: First order kinetics were developed based on experimental results of a noble metal catalyst. Activation energies and pre-exponential factors were determined by parameter estimation for steam reforming of tars, sulfur tars and ethene. The formation of ethane and benzene was assumed to be at constant rate depending on the decomposition of ethene and toluene respectively. Further, for steam reforming of methane and water gas shift reaction, the kinetic parameters of Langmuir–Hinshelwood–Hougen–Watson (LHHW) type rate laws including equilibrium term and adsorption of sulfur could be determined.
