Abstract
ABSTRACTIn this study, temperature-programmed carburization (TPC) has been used to prepare Mo2C/Al2O3 catalyst for carbon dioxide reforming of methane. Also, the effect of carburization conditions has been examined on excess carbon formation over the prepared catalysts. Minimum excess carbon of 0.51 wt% was obtained in a flow of 12.5 vol% CH4/H2 gas mixture, final carburization temperature of 750°C, and Mo loading of 12.5 wt%. This catalyst exhibited better initial activity due to lower excess carbon and higher carbide dispersion compared with other examined catalysts. However, the results of time on stream performance in the dry reforming of methane (DRM) revealed an increase in durability with an increase in Mo loading.
