Deactivation characteristics of lanthanide-promoted sol–gel Ni/Al2O3 catalysts in propane steam reforming

TL;DR: In this paper, Lanthanide-promoted sol-gel nickel catalysts supported on alumina were studied with regard to their activity and stability for propane steam reforming, showing that adding small amounts (2 wt%) of lanthanide elements (i.e., La, Ce, and Yb) significantly improves steam reforming activity.

Carbon Deposition in Steam Reforming and Methanation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the causes of deactivation of supported metal catalysts by carbon or coke formation, and found that deactivation can occur due to fouling of the metal surface, blockage of catalysts pores and voids, and actual physical disintegration of the catalyst support.

Catalytic Steam Reforming

TL;DR: The steam reforming process converts hydrocarbons into mixtures of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and methane as discussed by the authors, which is used also for the well-knowm process for improvement of the octane number of gasoline.
