Production of CO-rich Hydrogen from Methane Dry Reforming Over Lanthania-Supported Cobalt Catalyst: Kinetic and Mechanistic Studies

In this study, the production of CO-rich hydrogen from methane dry reforming over lanthania-supported Co catalyst was investigated. The Co/La2O3 catalyst was synthesized via wet-impregnation method and characterized using instrument techniques such as TGA, FTIR, XRD, FESEM-EDX and N2 adsorption-des...
