Journal ArticleDOI
A study of the methanation of carbon dioxide on Ni/Al2O3 catalysts at atmospheric pressure
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the hydrogenation of carbon dioxide producing methane and CO over Ni/Al2O3 catalysts and found that Ni metal particles are found in the spent catalysts mostly without carbon whiskers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Methanation of carbon dioxide on Ru/Al2O3 and Ni/Al2O3 catalysts at atmospheric pressure: Catalysts activation, behaviour and stability
TL;DR: In this article, the methanation of carbon dioxide has been studied over 3% Ru/Al2O3 and 20% Ni/Al 2O3 commercial catalysts.
Journal ArticleDOI
A study of Ni/La-Al2O3 catalysts: A competitive system for CO2 methanation

TL;DR: Ni/La-γ-Al2O3 samples containing 13.6% Ni and a variable amount of lanthana (0, 4, 14 and 37% Ni) were prepared by incipient wetness impregnation, using silica-free γ-Al 2O3 support as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrogen production by ethanol steam reforming over Ni catalysts derived from hydrotalcite-like precursors: Catalyst characterization, catalytic activity and reaction path
Carlo Resini,Carlo Resini,Tania Montanari,Tania Montanari,Luca Barattini,Luca Barattini,Gianguido Ramis,Gianguido Ramis,Guido Busca,Guido Busca,Sabrina Presto,Paola Riani,Rinaldo Marazza,Michele Sisani,Fabio Marmottini,Umberto Costantino +15 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the urea hydrolysis method has been applied to prepare Ni−Zn−Al and Ni−Mg−Al layered double hydroxides (LDHs) to be used as precursors of mixed oxide catalysts for the ethanol steam reforming (ESR) reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI
A study of Ni/Al2O3 and Ni–La/Al2O3 catalysts for the steam reforming of ethanol and phenol
Gabriella Garbarino,Gabriella Garbarino,Chongyang Wang,Ioannis Valsamakis,Sahar Chitsazan,Paola Riani,Elisabetta Finocchio,Maria Flytzani-Stephanopoulos,Guido Busca +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the catalytic activity has been evaluated in ethanol decomposition through temperature programmed surface reaction (TPSR), and in ethanol steam reforming (ESR); and in mixed ethanol and phenol steam reformulation (EPSR) as a model reaction for biomass tar steam reforming in a continuous flow reactor.
