Its higher catalytic activity than amorphous Ni B/γ Al 2O 3 catalyst 2, prepared by conventional one step desiccation procedure at 110 ℃, is identified in liquid phase benzene hydrogenation to cyclohexane. Both catalysts are characterized by XRD and SEM, Ni B/γ Al 2O 3 catalyst 1 has a higher active specific surface area and dispersion degree, which can be assigned to more effective distribution of nickel salt over the support during desiccation, thus resulting in its superior activity in benzene hydrogenation.展开更多

The study includes both purely catalytic operation in the temperature range of 923-1023 K, and hybrid catalytic-plasma operation of DC corona discharge reactor at room temperature and ambient pressure. The effect of feed flow rate, discharge power and Ni/γ-Al2O3 catalysts are studied. When CH4/CO2 ratio in the feed is 1/2, the syngas of low Ha/CO ratio at about 0.56 is obtained, which is a potential feedstock for synthesis of liquid hydrocarbons. Although Ni catalyst is only active above 573 K, presence of Ni catalysts in the cold corona plasma reactor (T≤523 K) shows promising increase in the conversions of methane and carbon dioxide. When Ni catalysts are used in the plasma reaction, H2/CO ratios in the products are slightly modified, selectivity to CO increases whereas fewer by-products such as hydrocarbons and oxygenates are formed.展开更多
