“…Most of the tar cracking catalysts studied in tandem with plasma are nickel or noble-metal supported catalysts. Traditional tar cracking catalysts such as dolomite [74,75,76], olivine [77,78,79], K 2 CO 3 [80,81], CaO [82,83,84], iron oxides [85] and chars [86,87,88] are yet to be explored. Indeed most of the catalysts found in many tar removal reviews [13,38,57,58] have been unexplored in tandem with plasma.…”
