Stable and selective syngas production from dry CH4-CO2 streams over supported bimetallic transition metal catalysts

Tuning the catalytic performance of Ni-catalysed dry reforming of methane and carbon deposition via Ni-CeO2- interaction

“…Dry reforming of methane to syngas, an intermediate for synthesis of methanol and Fischer-Tropsch products, is a promising route for conversion of methane to value-added chemicals/fuels and reduction of greenhouse gas (e.g., CO 2 and CH 4 ) emission. This reaction has been experimentally and theoretically studied over noble (Pt [8], Ru [9], Rh [ [10]; [11] ; [12]] and Pd [13]), non-noble metal (Ni [ [14]; [15]; [16] ; [17]] and Co [18]) and bimetallic (NiCo [19], FeNi [20], PdNi [21] and NiPt [22]) catalysts. Inexpensive Ni-based catalysts exhibited comparable activity to noble metals due to the outstanding capacity for activation/dissociation of the C-H bond of methane [23].…”

Regenerable g-C3N4–chitosan beads with enhanced photocatalytic activity and stability

“…Photocatalytic technology can utilize the inexhaustible solar energy, which is broadly applicable in the eld of energy and environmental protection and has been widely applied to energy production. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] Semiconductors, especially TiO 2 , [9][10][11] have been widely studied as photocatalysts, which have advantages including chemical stability, nontoxicity, no secondary pollution and low costs. [12][13][14][15][16] They also have disadvantages based on in-depth research, which are their excitability only by ultraviolet light, wide bandgap energy, low photocatalytic efficiency and the electrons and holes being prone to recombination.…”
