Methane decomposition over Ni–MgO–Al2O3 catalysts

Abstract. Studies of methane decomposition were performed over nickel alumina catalysts modified with magnesia. The catalysts were obtained by the co-precipitation method. The properties of catalysts were investigated by the temperature programmed reduction (TPR) and hydrogen desorption (TPD) methods. Methane decomposition was studied by the thermogravimetric and transient temperature progr…
