Abstract
This work aims to evaluate the influence of defective nanostructured alumina supports on the catalytic performance of the solids in the TRM reaction. The synergistic effects between NiPt nanoparticles on the nanostructured alumina support is also examined. Depending on the promoter added to the nanostructured alumina i.e., Zn, Mg or La, stable spinel phases or solid solutions with abundant intrinsic oxygen defects are formed. For NiPt/Al2ZnxOy and NiPt/Al2LaxOy, enriched PtOx and NiO nanoparticles microenvironments surrounding the defective support facilitate oxygen diffusion within the crystal lattice to the NiPt surface, which appeared to be the reason for the activity of the solids in the reaction. The NiPt/Al2MgxOy formed a NiO-MgO solid solution and out layer spinel phases, in which the presence of lattice oxygen species and extended defects helped by the accessible NiPt alloy on the support surface gave a strong metal-support interaction. This results in an improvement of the methane and CO2 conversions of 75 and 95 % at H2/CO ratio of 1.3.
期刊介绍:
Catalysis Today focuses on the rapid publication of original invited papers devoted to currently important topics in catalysis and related subjects. The journal only publishes special issues (Proposing a Catalysis Today Special Issue), each of which is supervised by Guest Editors who recruit individual papers and oversee the peer review process. Catalysis Today offers researchers in the field of catalysis in-depth overviews of topical issues.
Both fundamental and applied aspects of catalysis are covered. Subjects such as catalysis of immobilized organometallic and biocatalytic systems are welcome. Subjects related to catalysis such as experimental techniques, adsorption, process technology, synthesis, in situ characterization, computational, theoretical modeling, imaging and others are included if there is a clear relationship to catalysis.
