Performance of Ni-Sr/MgO-ZrO2 Catalyst for CO2 Reforming of Methane: Effect of Sr Addition

CO2 reforming of methane (CRM) is becoming a hot research area because of its capability to utilize greenhouse gases to reduce global warming. However, the CRM has not yet been commercialized due to several challenges including the weak prospect of catalyst. The impact of strontium on the performanc...
