Carbon Formation during Methane Dry Reforming over Ni-Containing Ceria-Zirconia Catalysts

Two series of Ni/Ce(Ti/Nb)ZrO<sub>2</sub> catalysts were prepared using citrate route and original solvothermal continuous flow synthesis in supercritical isopropanol and studied in dry reforming of methane (DRM). TEM, XPS and FTIRS of adsorbed CO confirm influence of support composition...

description Two series of Ni/Ce(Ti/Nb)ZrO<sub>2</sub> catalysts were prepared using citrate route and original solvothermal continuous flow synthesis in supercritical isopropanol and studied in dry reforming of methane (DRM). TEM, XPS and FTIRS of adsorbed CO confirm influence of support composition and preparation method on the catalysts’ morphology and surface features. The oxygen mobility was studied by isotope heteroexchange with C<sup>18</sup>O<sub>2</sub>. After testing in DRM, carbon deposits after catalysts’ testing in DRM were investigated by temperature-programmed oxidation with thermo-gravimetric analysis. The lowest amounts of carbon deposits were obtained for unmodified Ni-CeZr and Ni-CeNbZr compositions. Ti addition lead to an increased amount of carbon, which was removed at higher temperatures. The use of supercritical supports also resulted in the formation of a higher amount of coke. Catalysts prepared by the supercritical synthesis were tested in DRM for 25 h. The highest activity drop was observed in the first three hours. For all compositions, close values of carbon deposits were revealed.
