Abstract: | 10 wt%Ni/La2O3 catalysts for dry reforming of methane (DRM) were synthesized by wetness impregnation of lanthana supports prepared using sol-gel citric method with and without NH3 addition (Ni–La CA-NH3 and Ni–La CA, respectively). The support preparation conditions affect the nature, phase composition, and distribution of Ni phases (LaNiO3, NiO and La3Ni2O6). The gradient temperature DRM tests (400–800 °C) reveal higher catalytic activity of Ni–La CA (at 650 °C, X(CO2) = 65.7%, X(CH4) = 54.6%, H2/CO = 0.71). The Ni–La CA-NH3 shows higher stability (at 650 °C and 24 h, X(CO2): 73.7% => 76.4%, X(CH4): 64.7% => 64.6%, H2/CO: 0.77 => 0.72). For both catalysts, La2O2CO3 phase is formed after long run tests at 650 °C 24 h, with the greater TGA weight loss and stronger deactivation being observed for Ni–La CA. The H2-reduced Ni La CA-NH3 features ultrasmall (1–2 nm) Ni NPs strongly interacting with the support. Catalyst nature affects the amount of carbon coke formed. |
