When natural gas is passed through the hydrogen catalyst in your gas line to draw off the hydrogen the catalyst gets warm. Wouldn't hydrogen production be exothermic and wouldn't that explain why the catalyst is carried on a high-temperature substrate such as alumina or ceramic?

To the best of my knowledge I don't have any catalysts in my natural gas line. It's just an iron pipe.

O2 and acetylene make a pretty hot flame, but we're talking about some phoney baloney H2 from ethanol conversion not natural gas which I think consists of propane and butane. But if you believe in it, buy their patent and get rich. It's still a slightly free country in that you can spend some of your money they way you want.
