Abstract

Abstract:

We report Ni/LaHA@ZrO₂ catalysts prepared by a facile modified successive adsorption and reaction method for CO methanation. N₂ adsorption, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, H₂ temperature-programmed reduction, H₂ temperature-programmed desorption, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry were used to characterize the samples. The results indicated that the ZrO₂ nanoparticles were distributed over the surface of the Ni/LaHA@ZrO₂ catalyst and even partially covered some Ni particles, resulting in the coating exerting a confinement effect. The excess ZrO₂ had an adverse effect on the enhancement of CO conversion because of the coverage of the surface Ni particles; however, the Ni/LaHA@ZrO₂ catalyst displayed much higher CH₄ selectivity than Ni/LaHA because of the activation of the byproduct CO₂ molecules by ZrO₂ species. Therefore, even though 20Ni/LaHA@ZrO₂-5 exhibited similar CO conversion as 20Ni/LaHA, the use of the former resulted in a higher CH₄ yield than the use of the latter. A 107-h-lifetime test revealed that the Ni/LaHA@ZrO₂ catalyst was highly stable with superior anti-sintering and anti-coking properties because of its coating structure and the promoter effect of ZrO₂.

Key words: Lanthanum hexaaluminate, ZrO₂, Nickel catalyst, Coating structure, CO methanation
