Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a novel sensor for detecting the early stages of catalyst coking in fuel reforming systems and methods for making and using the same. The sensor may be manufactured by inkjet printing a colloidal suspension of ceramic powders to create thin (about 20 μm) catalytic and conductive elements of the sensor. The sensor may be used to determine the presence of coking conditions during processes at a level below the detection limit available using thermogravimetric analyzers (TGA) (<10 μg), thereby reducing catalyst coking in systems.
