Effect of Additives La2O3 AND CeO2 on the Activity and Selectivity of Ni-Al2O3/Cordierite Catalysts in Steam Reforming of Methane

  • Published:
Theoretical and Experimental Chemistry Aims and scope

The introduction of rare-earth elements (CeO2 and La2O3) into Ni-Al2O3/cordierite catalysts permits a decrease in the water to methane ratio in the reaction mixture for the steam reforming of methane. The carbon dioxide content in the resultant synthesis gas is considerably decreased in the presence of Ni-CeO2-Al2O3/cordierite catalysts, which may be attributed to suppression of the water–gas shift reaction.
