The objective of this research work is to synthesize, characterize and conduct the catalytic activity test of CO2 glycerol dry reforming using Nickel (Ni) and Cobalt (Co) supported Lanthanum oxide (La2O3) as catalyst. In this research, Ni/La2O3 and Co/La2O3 were tested in a fixed bed reactor at 700 oC, 1 atm and CO2: glycerol of 1:1.

From the characterization analysis, the results revealed that Ni based supported by La2O3 have smaller metal crystallite size as compared to Co supported La2O3 due to highly-dispersed of La2O3 in the Ni catalyst.

BET surface area measurement gives higher surface area, 28.29 m2/ g for 10 wt% Ni/La2O3 as compared to 10 wt% Co/La2O3 which gives 13.032 m2/ g.
