Catalytic Properties of Ni/CNTs and Ca-Promoted Ni/CNTs for Methanation Reaction of Carbon Dioxide

Article Preview

Abstract:

Nickel/carbon nanotubes (Ni/CNTs), Nickel/alumina (Ni/Al₂O₃), calcium-promoted Ni/CNTs and calcium-promoted Ni/Al₂O₃were synthesized by impregnation method. Methanation of carbon dioxide was used as a probe to evaluate their catalytic performance. The features of these Ni-based catalysts were investigated via XRD, H₂-TPR, H₂-TPD and the N₂ adsorptiondesorption isotherms. H₂-TPR showed that nickel species on Ni/CNTs was reduced more easily with respect to that on Ni/Al₂O₃, and addition of Ca can increase the content of easily reducible Ni species for Ni/CNTs. XRD and H₂-TPD indicated that addition of Ca promoted dispersion for CNTs-supported catalyst. These finding ultimately enhanced catalytic activity and stability for Ni/CNTs catalyst modified with Ca.
