Syngas Production via Methane Dry Reforming: A Novel Application of SmCoO3 Perovskite Catalyst

In this study, SmCoO3 perovskite catalyst have been synthesized by the sol-gel citrate method and for the first time, applied as catalyst for the production of syngas (H2 and CO) via methane dry reforming reaction. The perovskite catalyst was characterized (pre- and post-reaction) to determine its p...
