One unsupported nickel catalysts (about 55 wt.% Ni) supported on SiO2, Al2O3, TiO2, Nb2O5, ZrO2, V2O5 and ZnO were characterized by pulse dynamic oxygen chemisorption measured at -78 °C and evaluated in the reaction of reductive amination of diethylene glycol. Correlation was obtained between their oxygen uptake and catalytic activity.

Synthetic gas - a combination of (H2) and (CO) - is an important chemical intermediate for the production of liquid hydrocarbon, olefin, gasoline, and other valuable chemicals. Several reforming methods that use steam, carbon dioxide, and oxygen in the presence of various catalytic systems have been extensively investigated, and this paper reviews the recent research on the state-of-the-art of reforming technologies and the effect of parameters on the catalytic activity of mesoporous silica/alumina supported nickel catalysts for syngas production by methane dry reforming. First, we provide an overview of reforming technologies, including methane dry reforming, steam methane reforming, partial oxidation of CH4, and auto thermal reforming of CH4. Then, we review the literature on dry reforming catalysts. Next, we describe recent findings on the effect of parameters on the catalytic activity of mesoporous silica/alumina supported nickel catalysts for syngas production. Finally, we make proposals for future research. This study can help achieve a better understanding of the reforming technologies and the effects of parameters on catalytic performance for syngas production, thus contributing to the development of green technologies.

The reactivity of alumina-supported nickel catalysts can be improved by storing hydrogen in catalysts. This illustrates that a smooth correlation exists between the amount of stored hydrogen in catalysts and the catalytic activity.

<p class="Default">Nickel catalysts supported on different carriers (θ-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, γ-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, HZSM-5 with γ-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, HZSM-5, and NaX) have been investigated for the partial oxidation of methane. All the supported nickel catalysts showed a high activity for the formation of synthesis gas, and γ-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> was the most effective among all the tested carriers. The effect of the heat-treatment temperature of the 3 wt.% Ni/γ-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> catalyst on its catalytic activity was studied, and a considerable decrease in its activity was observed by the heat-treatment of the catalyst at 1000 °C compared with the catalysts prepared by the 300–800 °C – calcination. The XRD analysis suggested the formation of NiAl<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub> that is a non-reducible compound at the high calcination temperature. The addition of a modifier (Co, Ce, or La) to the 3 wt.% Ni/γ-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> catalyst increased the selectivity to H<sub>2</sub> and CO with the decreasing selectivity to CO<sub>2</sub>, and the highest selectivity to H<sub>2</sub> was obtained by the 5 wt.% NiLa/γ-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>. The developed 5 wt.% NiLa/γ-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> catalyst showed a high stability for 30 h for the partial oxidation of methane at 750 °C. The methane conversion reached 95%, selectivity to hydrogen 83% and 52% to carbon monoxide.</p>
