SYNTHESIS OF SUPPORTED CATALYST FOR CONVERSION OF METHANE AND CARBON DIOXIDE TO SYNGAS

The rising of technology development throughout the world leads towards the increasing in global temperature. One of the major caused that lead to global warming is the presence of high concentration of greenhouse gasses such as methane, carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxide in the atmosphere. In order to...

One of the major caused that lead to global warming is the presence of high concentration of greenhouse gasses such as methane, carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxide in the atmosphere. In order to reduce the effect of global warming, many researchers have carried out experiment to convert the greenhouse gasses towards something beneficial and environmental friendly. One of the well-known process is converting methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) to produce syngas. To improve the conversion rate of methane and carbon dioxide, various catalysts have been used by researchers. Among them, the most typically used is Nickel (Ni).
