Abstract

The partial oxidation of methane (POM) to syngas has attracted the attentions of scientists in the recent 20–30 years due to the depletion of methane and its obvious advantages. Ni-based catalysts were most widely employed in the POM because of their comparable catalytic performance with noble metal-based catalysts as well as their cheap prices. However, Ni-based catalysts were suffered from carbon deposition and sintering which were the main reasons for catalyst deactivation. Therefore it’s necessary to improve the abilities of Ni-based catalysts to resist carbon deposition and sintering. In this review, types of Ni-based catalysts that could be used in the POM to syngas are reviewed and at last, the future of Ni-based catalysts in the POM is discussed.
