Abstract: The activity and stability of hydrolysis of dimethyl ether over HZSM-5 molecular sieve at different temperatures under a space velocity as high as 18000 mL/gcat·h were investigated. The effect of Si/Al ratio on the properties of HZSM-5 during hydrolysis was studied. The results showed that HZSM-5 exhibited high activity for the hydrolysis of dimethyl ether but easily lost its activity due to coke formation at low Si/Al ratios or at high temperatures. For the process of steam reforming of dimethyl ether，a composite catalyst consisting of HZSM-5-50 (Si/Al ratio is 50) and self-synthesized Cu-Zn-Al (mole ratio is 3∶5∶2) catalyst was prepared simply by mechanical mixing. The dimethyl ether conversion and H₂ selectivity over the composite catalysts with different weight ratios of two components were measured. In addition，the influence of space velocity of feed gas on the process was examined as well. The results showed that the composite catalyst (the weight ratio of Cu-Zn-Al to HZSM-5-50 1∶1) could maintain its catalytic properties for a relatively long time during the reaction at 275 °C and space velocity of 18 000 mL/gcat·h. The maximum H₂ yield around 54% could be obtained while the space velocity was controlled at an appropriate level，near 4000 mL/gcat·h.

摘要： 考察了HZSM-5型分子筛在不同温度下对二甲醚水解的活性与稳定性，分析了分子筛硅铝比的影响。还将HZSM-5-50（硅铝比为50）与自制Cu-Zn-Al（摩尔比为3∶5∶2）催化剂进行物理混合制成复合催化剂，研究了两者质量配比对复合催化剂上二甲醚蒸气重整制氢过程中转化率与氢选择性的影响，并考察了不同原料气体空速下复合催化剂的性能。结果表明，复合催化剂质量比Cu-Zn-Al∶HZSM-5-50为1∶1、温度为275 ℃、气体空速为18000 mL/(gcat·h)的反应条件下性能比较稳定，当空速接近4000 mL/(gcat·h)时，H2收率可获极值，达到54%左右。
