member selected from the second group consisting of chromium and chromium compounds and a finely divided powder of at least one member selected from the third group consisting of titanium and titanium compounds. In the production, when the above-mentioned mixture is subjected to granulation and the obtained granules are melt-sprayed, there can be obtained the desired electrode having excellent properties with respect to catalytic activity and durability in high spraying yield.

4840783 PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF HYDROGEN BY CATALYTIC REFORMING OF METHANOL WITH WATER VAPOR Dang Vu Quang, Miche Davidson, Daniel Durand, Philipp Courty, Neuilly, France assigned to Institut Francais du Petrole The invention relates to a process for the production of hydrogen by catalytic reforming of methanol with water vapor. A mixture of methanol, water and carbon dioxide is passed in contact with a catalyst, containing copper, in a fixed bed, in a catalytic zone, at a temperature comprised between 150 degrees and 400 degrees C., the molar ratio of the carbon dioxide to the methanol, at the entrance of the catalytic zone, being comprised between 0.001 and 0.2.
