Role and mechanism of calcium-based catalysts for methane dry reforming: A review

Dry reforming of HCs (methane, ethane, and propane) over a 40Ni0.75(Ce1−xFex)0.25/Al2O3 catalyst: a comparative study

“…3,4 The development of a potential method to use greenhouse gases (GHGs) is crucial given the urgent need to reverse the deteriorating climate and environmental conditions brought on by the exponential rise in anthropogenic GHG emissions. 5,6 Due to environmental concerns and a scarcity of non-renewable fuels, the production of synthesis gas (a mixture of H 2 and CO) has attracted a lot of interest recently. Syngas is employed as a raw material for chemical synthesis like generation of methanol and Fischer–Tropsch synthesis, the generation of denser hydrocarbons, or harnessed as an environmentally friendly energy source.…”

Combined Methane Cracking for H2 Production with CO2 Utilization for Catalyst Regeneration Using Dual Functional Nanostructured Particles

“…Methane reforming is a crucial industrial process for converting methane into hydrogen and other valuable products, playing a significant role in various chemical industries and clean energy applications. − Currently, the main process for producing hydrogen is steam reforming of natural gas, primarily methane (SRM). ,,, While SRM possesses high energy efficiency, the significant CO 2 emission necessitates the implementation of an additional carbon capture and storage process, which further increases the cost of utility. ,− The main difference between methane reforming and methane decomposition is that methane reforming requires an extra downstream process to separate H 2 from the syngas (i.e., a mixture of H 2 and CO), whereas methane decomposition directly produces pure H 2 without the need for separation.…”
