甲烷水蒸气重整（SMR）作为可与多种高温发电系统耦合的燃料供应过程，目前受到相当普遍的重视。本文从SMR的过程和反应机理、甲烷重整催化剂材料和性能评价、传统反应器和微反应器的SMR性能比较，以及耦合SMR系统的匹配等方面，对SMR反应的研究进展进行了归纳和分析。分析结果表明，目前与固体氧化物燃料电池（SOFC）耦合的SMR反应，尤其是与非传统的微小型反应器匹配的催化剂材料、反应器结构设计、结构与材料一体化的研究都有待深入。

In this paper, we tried to summarize the research development of steam mathane reforming (SMR) reactions in the aspects of reforming process and reaction mechanism, catlalysts material and properties evaluation, comparison of conventional and micro reactor reaction systems, and several coupling SMR power plant systems so on. The inductive results show that the SMR coupling with solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), especially the studies about catalysts' material for unconventional micro-reactor and the micro-reactor structure incorporate with material need more deep research work.
