The catalytic conversion of CH and CO into H-rich syngas is known as the dry reforming of methane (DRM). The dissociation of CH over active sites, coupled with the oxidation or polymerization of CH (x = 1-4), plays a crucial role in determining in determining the DRM product yield and coke deposition. Herein, a series of bimetallic-supported catalysts are prepared by the dispersion of Ni-M (M = Ce, Co, Fe, and Sr) over 60 wt% MgO-40 wt% AlO (60Mg40Al) support. Catalysts are tested for DRM and characterized with XRD, surface area and porosity, temperature-programmed reduction/desorption, UV-VIS-Raman spectroscopy, and thermogravimetry. 2.5Ni2.5Sr/60Mg40Al and 2.5Ni2.5Fe/60Mg40Al, and 2.5Ni2.5Ce/60Mg40Al and 2.5Ni2.5Co/60Mg40Al have similar CO interaction profiles. The 2.5Ni2.5Sr/60Mg40Al catalyst nurtures inert-type coke, whereas 2.5Ni2.5Fe/60Mg40Al accelerates the deposition of huge coke, which results in catalytic inferiority. The higher activity over 2.5Ni2.5Ce/60Mg40Al is due to the instant lattice oxygen-endowing capacity for oxidizing coke. Retaining a high DRM activity (54% H-yield) up to 24 h even against a huge coke deposition (weight loss 46%) over 2.5Ni2.5Co/60Mg40Al is due to the timely diffusion of coke far from the active sites or the mounting of active sites over the carbon nanotube.

The accumulation of greenhouse gasses (CH and CO) results in an increase in the temperature of the atmosphere. The conversion of greenhouse gasses into chemicals and fuels with high added value benefits not only the environment but also energy development. A promising and well-studied process is the reforming of methane, where CH and CO are converted into syngas (CO and H).

The presence of abundant hydroxyl groups on the surface of AlO can promote the dispersion of Ni species but produce an inactive NiAlO phase at high temperatures. Moreover, the catalysts prepared by the conventional incipient wetness impregnation method lack the sites for the activation of CO, which leads to coke deposition and thus affects the catalyst activity. The above restricts the utilization of Ni in conventional Ni/AlO catalysts.

Well-defined amorphous silica-alumina (ASA) with a relatively low Al loading were synthesized by homogeneous deposition-precipitation of Al on SiO nanoparticles to understand the nature and formation of Brønsted acid sites (BAS). The amount of Al grafted relative to the silanol density was varied by variation of the size of SiO nanoparticles, reflected by their surface areas between 90 and 380 m·g. Two sets of ASA were synthesized, one aiming at a SiOH/Al ratio of 3, corresponding to the maximum amount of BAS represented by Al perturbation of SiOH groups, and the second one aimed at studying the impact of Al dispersion by using a constant Al loading (Si/Al ≈ 103).

Article Synopsis
- The study explores dry reforming of methane (DRM) using CeO(111)-supported transition metal clusters, particularly focusing on metals like Ru, Pt, Co, and Ni through density functional theory (DFT) and microkinetic modeling.
- *DFT calculations reveal that Ru and Co have strong oxygen adsorption abilities, making them effective for CO activation, with Ru/CeO(111) showing the highest efficiency for activating both CH and CO.
- *Microkinetic simulations rank the activity of the catalysts, showing Ru/CeO(111) as the most active, while Pt/CeO(111) excels in anticoking, and Co/CeO and Ni/CeO exhibit lower stability and activity.*

Propane dehydrogenation (PDH), an atom-economic reaction to produce high-value-added propylene and hydrogen with high efficiency, has recently attracted extensive attention. The severe deactivation of Pt-based catalysts through sintering and coking remains a major challenge in this high-temperature reaction. The introduction of Sn as a promoter has been widely applied to improve the stability and selectivity of the catalysts.
