Characterisation of coke obtained over MgO-modified Ni/SiO2 in the decomposition of methane

In the present work, the effect of MgO incorporation on the catalytic performance of a conventional 20%Ni/SiO2 catalyst in the direct methane decomposition for COx-free H2 production at an optimum temperature of 600 oC was investigated. A series of MgO modified 20%Ni/SiO2 catalysts of Mgat/Niat r...
