Abstract

Lithium-added nickel catalysts on alumina were prepared for CO2 reforming of methane by two methods, precipitation and impregnation. Performances of the catalysts were investigated by TG, CO-adsorption and SEM analysis. The catalyst with ratio of Li/Ni=1.0 prepared by precipitation method has high nickel dispersion, catalytic activity and stability for CO2 reforming of methane.
