Synthesis, Characterization and Catalytic Performance of Samarium Sesquioxide supported Cobalt Catalyst for Methane Dry Reforming to Syngas

Synthesis, Characterization and Catalytic Performance of Samarium Sesquioxide supported Cobalt Catalyst for Methane Dry Reforming to Syngas

This study focuses on the synthesis, characterization and performance of 20wt%Co/80wt%Sm2O3 catalyst in methane dry reforming for the production of syngas. The20wt%Co/80wt%Sm2O3 catalyst was synthesized via wetimpregnation method and characterized by TGA, FTIR, XRD, FESEM, EDX, N2 physisorption and...
