Bio-syngas Production from Glycerol Dry Reforming over Cement Clinker-supported Nickel Catalyst

This paper describes glycerol dry (CO2) reforming system for producing H2:CO mixture with ratios 1.0 to 2.0 suitable for downstream Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis. Conventional glycerol steam reforming suffers from carbon deposition on catalysts, CO2 greenhouse gas production and high H2:CO product...
