Abstract
Provided is a catalyst for preparing a syngas by reforming methane wherein a nickel-based catalyst is mixed with a metal oxide catalyst. More particularly, alumina is used as a support and a metal oxide catalyst including magnesia, nickel, vanadium, tungsten, iron, molybdenum or chromium is used to inhibit carbon deposition and maintain or improve catalytic activity.
Claims7
A catalyst for a tri-reforming reaction of methane, wherein a nickel-based catalyst represented by Chemical Formula 1 is mixed with a metal oxide catalyst represented by Chemical Formula 2:
- Ni/MgO/Al2O3 [Chemical Formula 1]
- wherein MgO is included in an amount of 5-30 parts by weight and Ni is included in an amount of 2-40 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of an alumina support;
- and
- X/Y [Chemical Formula 2]
- wherein X is selected from the group consisting of molybdenum, chromium and vanadium, and Y comprises iron in which a molar ratio of X and Y is 0.1-5.
