Syngas production via CO2 reforming of CH4 over Ni-based SBA-15: Promotional effect of promoters (Ce, Mg, and Zr)

The promotional effect of different types of metals (Ce, Mg, and Zr) over Ni/SBA-15 which synthesized using ultrasonic co-impregnation technique were scientifically evaluated via CO2 reforming of CH4 (CRM). Characterizations including XRD, BET, FTIR, CO2-TPD were done to examine their physical attri...

TP Chemical technology The promotional effect of different types of metals (Ce, Mg, and Zr) over Ni/SBA-15 which synthesized using ultrasonic co-impregnation technique were scientifically evaluated via CO2 reforming of CH4 (CRM). Characterizations including XRD, BET, FTIR, CO2-TPD were done to examine their physical attributes, metal-support interactions, and basicity properties. XRD results suggested that NiO particles were not distributed homogeneously within the confined framework of SBA-15 for Ni-Ce/SBA-15.

H2-TPR evidenced the strongest metal-support interaction in Ni-Zr/SBA-15 owing to its high temperature reduction behaviour.

The ascendency catalytic activity and stability of Ni-Zr/SBA-15 catalyst were attributed to its favourable properties such as strong Si–O–Zr bond formation, smallest NiO crystallite size and a moderate amount of basic sites, which crucial for sintering restriction of NiO particles and carbon deposition, thus facilitated CRM reaction.
