Abstract
Lanthana- and magnesia-supported nickel catalysts with Ni-loading ranging from 10 to 30Â wt.% and calcined at temperatures 1073-1273Â K are prepared and tested in the catalytic partial oxidation of methane. These catalysts are characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption-desorption measurements, temperature-programmed reduction (TPR), thermogravimetric analysis (TG) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) techniques. The main objective of this work is the development of more efficient catalysts to produce syngas (H2Â +Â CO) from methane. For the catalysts developed the influence of the nickel content and the support on the activity are studied in a series of nickel catalysts.
