Thermochemical CO2 splitting was carried out over Ni-, Fe-, Mg- and Mn-doped ceria/zirconia solid solutions, where the sample was thermally reduced at 1400 °C under inert atmosphere followed by the re-oxidization of CO2 to generate CO at 1100 °C in the subsequent step. Compared with the undoped sample, all the doped ceria/zirconia had a high reduction yield in the first thermal reduction step. Due to the low thermal stability, Ni-, Fe- and Mn-doped samples showed lower CO production in the CO2 splitting step than the stoichiometric amounts. In contrast, the Mg-doped sample produced more CO with the volumes of 5.64 and 5.17 mL g−1 during the two thermochemical cycles. Moreover, a 10% Mg-doped sample prepared via hydrothermal treatment with P123 showed a more stable reactivity during cycling due to the relatively stable microstructure under the successive high temperature thermal treatment.
