Ni/(rare earth phosphate) as a new effective catalyst for autothermal reforming of methane

Nagaoka K, Eiraku T, Nishiguchi H, Takita Y

The stability of metal phosphate during H-2 reduction is one of the critical factors that determine the catalytic behavior of Ni/(metal phosphate) in CH4 autothermal reforming. Ni/(rare earth phosphate), particularly Ni/(Gd, Cc, or ErPO4), has been found to be a new family of effective catalysts.
