Support influence on Ni–Cu catalysts behavior under ethanol oxidative reforming reaction

Aqueous-phase reforming of glycerol using Ni–Cu catalysts prepared from hydrotalcite-like precursors

“…10,16 In the present work Ni and Cu were selected to be included in a catalyst formulation applied to glycerol reforming in order to obtain high activity and selectivity to hydrogen. Ni-Cu bimetallic catalysts have been extensively studied in ethanol steam reforming, [17][18][19] showing that CO production and coke deposition are decreased with the addition of copper. 17 Hydrotalcites, a family of anionic clays, are lamellar compounds of aluminum and magnesium hydroxides with interlayer spaces containing exchangeable anions.…”

Advances in ethanol autothermal reforming

“…Hydrogen production capacity of the catalysts at low temperature (575 1C) decreases in the following the sequence: CoZnAl4CoMgAl4CoAl4NiMgAl. The effect of support on the reforming reaction has also been studied for various catalysts [70,71]. There also have been a few studies of nonnoble metals supported on nanofibers [45,46] Table 3 shows the detailed description of the catalyst, reaction conditions and the results for non-noble metal catalysts.…”

Control of Ni/Ce1-xMxOy Catalyst Properties Via the Selection of Dopant M = Gd, La, Mg. Part 1. Physicochemical Characteristics

“…Nickel-containing catalysts are effective catalytic systems for the conversion of hydrocarbons and oxygenates to hydrogen-containing gas [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. Significant advantages of nickel catalysts include their high activity and their relatively low cost.…”
