The effect of lanthanum addition on the catalytic activity of γ-alumina supported bimetallic Co–Mo carbides for dry methane reforming
Recent progress in ceria-based catalysts for the dry reforming of methane: a review
The mitigation of CO2 and CH4 emissions is feasible by transforming them into valuable syngas via the dry
reforming of methane (DRM). However, the problem of catalyst deactivation has restricted its industrial
application. Therefore, the development of catalysts for an effective reforming process has been attracted
enormous attention. Ceria has a high potential as it can serve as both catalyst support and metal active
site for adsorption and dissociation of CO2 and CH4. Material properties, such as redox and acid/base
properties, and oxygen storage capacity, greatly affect catalytic behavior and performance, as well as coke
inhibition in the DRM. This review aims to provide an up-to-date summary on the DRM over ceria-based
catalysts, including aspects of the catalysts, reaction mechanism, deactivation, and regeneration studies.
This review also proposes governing factors and new ways for improving the process, to provide a more
rational to designing an ideal ceria-based catalyst for DRM
