Visualizing the importance of oxide-metal phase transitions in the production of synthesis gas over Ni catalysts

Stéphane François Jean Poitel

Synthesis gas, composed of H-2 and CO, is an important fuel which serves as feedstock for industrially relevant processes, such as methanol or ammonia synthesis. The efficiency of these reactions depends on the H-2 : CO ratio, which can be controlled by a ...
