Nickel–alumina composite aerogel catalysts with a high nickel load: a novel fast sol–gel synthesis procedure and screening of catalytic properties

Development of nickel based catalysts for the transformation of natural triglycerides and related compounds into green diesel: a critical review

“…The absence of CO and CO 2 in the gas products shows that full methanation takes place. It is well known that Ni-based catalysts are able to perform the carbon oxides methanation under the given reaction conditions [121]. However, the analysis of the reaction products indicated that the hydrocarbons chain shortening occurred predominantly by the end -CH 3 group removal [95].…”

Synthesis and characterization of mesoporous ceria/alumina nanocomposite materials via mixing of the corresponding ceria and alumina gel precursors

“…However, there is another approach for alumina stabilization which is based on doping or mixing with different metal oxides as a stabilizing agent. The latter approach has been investigated in many recent studies, which include the addition of such stabilizing phases via impregnation and solid state reaction [5,6,[8][9][10].…”

Preparation and characterization of nickel based catalysts on silica, alumina and titania obtained by sol–gel method

“…Sol-gel processes have attracted the attention of many researchers in recent years [1][2][3][4][5][6]. In fact, the physical and chemical features of the materials obtained by these methods (e.g., particle sizes, surface areas and mechanical properties) can be changed according to the temperature, operating conditions, and to the used precursor.…”
