Nickel-based heterogeneous catalysts have shown promising results in many industrial-
scale catalytic reforming processes and hydrocarbon reforming reactions such as dry
reforming of methane (DRM). However, it is also reported that Ni-based catalysts generally
show less resistance to the carbonaceous deposition, which ultimately causes their rapid
deactivation during the reaction. One possible solution to improve the coke resistance is the
addition of a promoter to the catalyst, which has shown successful results to reduce the coke …
