Catalytic Performance of Ceria-supported Cobalt Catalyst for CO-rich Hydrogen Production from Dry Reforming of Methane

Dry reforming of methane was studied over ceria-supported cobalt (20wt%) catalyst prepared via wet-impregnation method. The synthesized catalyst was characterized using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive X...
