Effect of Ca Promoter on the Structure, Performance, and Carbon Deposition of Ni-AlO Catalyst for CO-CH Reforming.

Ni-AlO catalyst with different Ca abundance for CO-CH reforming was prepared by the solution combustion method. By some mature characterization methods, such as XRD, H-TPR, EDX mapping, TEM, TPH and TG-DTG technologies, and the reforming experiment, the effect of Ca content on the structure, reforming performance, and carbon deposition of Ni-AlO catalyst was investigated. Results showed that the grain size of active component Ni on the 4 wt % Ca-modified catalyst (Ni-Ca-4) was small (13.
