Ethanol steam reforming over NiLaZr and NiCuLaZr mixed metal oxide catalysts

Improved stability of Ni/Al2O3 catalysts by effect of promoters (La2O3, CeO2) for ethanol steam-reforming reaction

“…(6)). This points out that at lower temperatures, the promotion of C C bond cleavage by Ni is inefficient and the decarbonylation of acetaldehyde competes with the aldol condensation and further formation of acetone [60]. By increased temperature, an enhanced selectivity to H 2 was observed.…”

Improved ethanol steam reforming on Rh/Al2O3 catalysts doped with CeO2 or/and La2O3: Influence in reaction pathways including coke formation

“…[4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. Among transition metals, the high CC bond-breaking activity and the high resistance to coke formation of Rh makes it one of the most studied active phase for ethanol-reforming reactions [6,[11][12][13][14].…”

Recent advances on the utilization of layered double hydroxides (LDHs) and related heterogeneous catalysts in a lignocellulosic-feedstock biorefinery scheme

“…161 They found that the optimum reduction temperature is about 800°C, at which a proper amount of Ni 0 species and good resistance to coke formation is obtained. Bussi et al 162 prepared NiLaZr and NiCuLaZr mixed metal oxide catalysts which are active in ethanol steam reforming. Both catalysts showed significant catalytic activity in the steam reforming of ethanol over the temperature range of 500-650°C.…”
