This study aimed to investigate the effect of carbon derived from glucose (C) on the physicochemical characteristics and catalytic activity of Ni, supported over SiO2, ZSM-5, and TiO2 in methane dry reforming. Among the Ni catalysts without C, Ni/SiO2 exhibited the highest CH4-CO2 conversion and stability at all experimented temperatures. On the other hand, the C-incorporated catalysts prepared by glucose impregnation, followed by pyrolysis, showed dissimilar performances. C improved the stability of Ni/SiO2 in the reforming at 650 °C and 750 °C and increased the CH4 and CO2 conversion to the level close to the thermodynamic equilibrium at 850 °C. However, this element did not substantially affect the activity of Ni/ZSM-5 and exerted a retarding effect on Ni/TiO2. Characterizations with H2-TPD, XRD, EXAFS, and STEM-EDS revealed that the different influences of C by the supports were attributed to the extent of metal dispersion and metal-support interaction.

Plasma is an efficient method that can activate inert molecules such as methane and carbon dioxide in a mild environment to make them reactive. In this work, we have prepared an AE-NiO/γ-Al2O3 catalyst using an ammonia-evaporation method for plasma promoted dry reforming reaction of CO2 and CH4 at room temperature. According to the characterization data of XRD, H2-TPR, TEM, XPS, etc., the AE-NiO/γ-Al2O3 catalyst has higher dispersion, smaller particle size and stronger metal-support interaction than the catalyst prepared by the traditional impregnation method. In addition, the AE-NiO/γ-Al2O3 catalyst also exhibits higher activity in dry reforming reaction. This work provides a feasible reference experience for the research of plasma promoted dry reforming reaction catalysts at room temperature.

In the present studies, different characterization techniques have been utilized to evaluate the stability of catalysts prepared by modified impregnation method. The results indicated that strong metal-support (Mo-support) interaction existed in the γ-Al2O3-CeO2 supported catalyst with higher CeO2 loading as compared to the Mo/γ-Al2O3 catalyst. This suggested that the addition of CeO2 into the γ-Al2O3 enhanced the metal-support interaction, thus decreases the reducibility, depending on the CeO2 loading. Similarly, the catalyst with higher CeO2 loading exhibited lower Ce 3d and higher Mo 3d binding energies respectively, supporting the TPR results.
