Popis: | Ni supported on solid solution (NiOMgO) catalysts with different Ni concentration (10, 20 and 30 wt.%) were prepared by a novel paper assisted combustion synthesis (PACS) method, followed by a reduction stage. All as-synthesized materials formed NiOMgO solid solutions, which under optimum PACS conditions exhibited up to about 140 m2/g BET surface area, which is one of the highest reported so far for this type of materials. Solid solutions were not active unless reduced at higher temperatures, causing a fraction of the Ni to segregate to the surface to become the active sites. The activity during the dry reforming of methane was studied as a function of temperature, and time on stream (TOS). The PACS solid solution with 10 wt.% of Ni had the highest surface area and, upon reduction, it was the most active and stable catalyst exhibiting low carbon formation at 600 °C, and no carbon deposition at 700 °C during 24 h TOS. The activity results correlated well with the higher surface area of the starting solid solutions, the smaller Ni crystallite sizes, and the number of Ni2+ and Ni3+ sites on the surface.
