The role of Mo species in Ni–Mo catalysts for dry reforming of methane

Abstract

The Ni-Mo catalyst has attracted significant attention due to its excellent coke-resistance in dry reforming of methane (DRM) reaction, but its detailed mechanism is still vague. Herein, Mo-doped Ni (Ni-Mox)...

High activity in the dry reforming of methane using a thermally switchable double perovskite and in situ generated molecular level nanocomposite

“…Thus, coke deposition mainly occurs due to reactions (3) and (4). 6,30,31 In this aspect, it is to be noted that the catalyst has a vital role in the DRM reaction. Hence, intense research activity is focused on developing suitable catalysts with high DRM activity, high durability, and high resistance toward coking.…”

“…with low durability, and, finally, involve multistep processes for the synthesis of catalysts. Therefore, DRM has drawn considerable attention of researchers in the last few decades for its various potential applications in the chemical industry, [4][5][6][7][8] academic interests, as well as environmental aspects. [9][10][11][12] Syngas can be used in various industry-oriented fields such as hydrogen production, [13][14][15][16] methanol preparation, 17,18 diesel production using the Fischer-Tropsch process, 19 and reduction of iron ore to sponge iron.…”
