The effect of magnetic inducement in support preparation was studied to reduce coke and improve the activity of Ni catalysts for ethanol steam reforming (ESR) at 550–650 °C. Magnetic inducement was introduced to prepare 5 mol % CeO2 in Al2O3 support in order to control the composition and the distribution of Ce in Al2O3. The results show that using CeO2–Al2O3 support with magnetic inducement affects both hydrogen production and coke reduction, where Ni/CeO2–Al2O3 support prepared under magnetic inducement with N–N pole arrangement (Ni/CeO2–Al2O3 (N–N)) exhibited the highest hydrogen production and the lowest coke formation among the catalysts used in this work. Compared with Ni/CeO2–Al2O3 (no magnet), Ni/CeO2–Al2O3 (N–N) catalysts yield 14.0% higher H2 production and 31.7% less coke production. The modified catalyst preparation process used in this study could create catalysts for hydrogen production from ESR which are high in performance and stability but low in preparation cost.

The Ni catalysts supported by CeO2-Al2O3xerogel were prepared by sol-gel method. The effect of hydrolysis ratio (R at 16.5 and 165) on CeO2-Al2O3textural properties and phase formation were investigated. The results revealed that the porous texture and the Ni crystalline phase can be controlled by adjusting the hydrolysis ratio. A high surface area and small Ni crystallite size were obtained by using the hydrolysis ratio of 16.5. For hydrogen production via glycerol steam reforming, the Ni catalyst supported on CeO2-Al2O3xerogel showed a better catalytic performance than that supported on commercial alumina. The promoted Ni catalyst supported on commercial alumina suddenly deactivated after first 12 h, whereas that on Al2O3xerogel performed the catalytic stability more than 20 h. This demonstrated that the catalyst prepared by sol-gel method is an interesting catalyst for using in the glycerol steam reforming because of the catalytic stability enhancement.

Catalytic systems play an important role in hydrogen production via ethanol reforming. The effect of Ni loading on the characteristics and activities of Ni/Al2O3 catalysts used in pure ethanol steam reforming are not well-understood. Two series of catalysts with various Ni loadings (6, 8, 10, 12, and 20 wt. %) were prepared by impregnation (IMP) and precipitation (PT) methods and were tested in reforming reactions. The catalysts were characterized by Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), X-ray diffraction (XRD), temperature-programmed reduction (TPR), and scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM–EDAX). Powder XRD patterns of all the catalysts exhibited only NiO. Lower Ni loading catalysts were more efficient in H2 production, as evidenced by the finding that a 6 wt. % Ni catalyst, synthesized via the PT method, yielded 3.68 mol H2 per mol ethanol fed. The high surface area and small crystallite size of the low Ni loading catalysts resulted in sufficient dispersion and strong metal-support interactions, which closely related to the high activity of the 6 PT catalyst.
