A study into syngas production from catalytic steam reforming of palm oil mill effluent (POME): A new treatment approach

This paper reports on the novel application of catalytic steam reforming process to convert palm oil mill effluent (POME) into syngas over a 20wt% Ni/80wt% Al 2 O 3 catalyst. The catalyst possessed high degree of crystallinity and was impurity-free, judging from the obtained XRD pattern. Furtherm...
