Toward Understanding Metal-Catalyzed Ethanol Reforming

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyze the reaction pathways for metal-catalyzed steam reforming of ethanol and discuss the available experimental and theoretical data to suggest alternatives to address three major issues: (i) the impact of particle size and metal oxidation state.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conversion of glycerol over 10%Ni/γ-Al2O3 catalyst

TL;DR: In this paper, the conversion of glycerol in gas phase and atmospheric pressure has been investigated over 10 wt.% Ni/γ-Al2O3 catalysts with nickel nitrate and pre-treated with hydrogen in the range of 623-1073 K. The resultant catalysts were characterized by N2-physisoption, H2-chemisorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), TGA-MS, TEM, RAMAN, NH3-TPD, XPS, TPO-MS and XANES
Journal ArticleDOI

Steam reforming of acetone over Ni- and Co-based catalysts: Effect of the composition of reactants and catalysts on reaction pathways

TL;DR: In this article, the properties of Ni/Co/Co-Ni/MgAl 2 O 4 catalysts in the steam reforming of acetone (SRA) were investigated regarding the metallic composition and nature of catalytic site.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of copper on nickel-based catalysts in the conversion of glycerol

TL;DR: In this paper, the catalytic transformation of glycerol to value-added compounds was investigated over bimetallic Ni-Cu/γ-Al2O3 catalysts with Ni/Cu atomic ratios of 8/1, 4/1 and 1/8.
