Abstract

A series of supported Ni-Mo catalysts were synthesised through a deposition-co-precipitation method (DcP) and investigated in combined dry and steam reforming of biogas. The morphology of the oxide precursors and reduced catalysts and their composition were determined via XRF, TEM, SEM, TGA, TPR, BET, and XRD. Modifications to Ni:Mo loading changed the catalyst reduction behaviour and the types of phases formed. The results obtained revealed that the nickel-molybdenum oxide precursors consisted of a nickel molybdate phase. The prepared Ni-Mo catalysts supported by YSZ, GDC and CSZ with improved carbon tolerance have the potential to be used as anodes in SOFC. Those catalysts were compared to conventional catalysts with Al2O3 and TiO2 supports typical for reforming catalysts.
