Low temperature methane steam reforming for hydrogen production, using experimental developed Ni/Al 2 O 3 catalysts is studied both experimentally and numerically. The catalytic activity measurements were performed at a temperature range of 500-700 • C with steam to carbon ratio (S/C) of 2 and 3 under atmospheric pressure conditions. A mathematical analysis to evaluate the reaction feasibility at all different conditions that have been applied by using chemical equilibrium with applications (CEA) software and in addition, a mathematical model focused on the kinetics and the thermodynamics of the reforming reaction is introduced and applied using a commercial finite element analysis software (COMSOL Multiphysics 5.0). The experimental results were employed to validate the extracted simulation data based on the yields of the produced H 2 , CO 2 and CO at different temperatures. A maximum hydrogen yield of 2.7 mol/mol-CH 4 is achieved at 700 • C and S/C of 2 and 3. The stability of the 10%Ni/Al 2 O 3 catalyst shows that the catalyst is prone to deactivation as supported by Thermogravimetric Analysis TGA results.
