Abstract
Effects of ceria added as a promoter to a nickel-calcium hydroxyapatite catalyst, which has recently been reported to exhibit high activity and selectivity in partial oxidation of methane, were investigated. The ceria-promoted catalyst exhibited higher activity and stability than the unpromoted one. This is considered due to the oxygen storage capacity of ceria, which promotes easier removal of the deposited carbon. The optimum content of ceria was determined to lie in the range of the Ce/Ni ratio from 0.1/2.5 to 0.2/2.5.
