| Abstract Scope |
Dry reforming of methane (DRM) is a promising method to convert methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) into syngas, but catalyst deactivation due to coke formation remains a significant challenge. Ruthenium (Ru) based catalysts have shown potential in thermal DRM, typically requiring temperatures of 600700 °C. However, integrating plasma with thermal catalysis can potentially lower reaction temperatures and alter reaction pathways. The introduction of plasma-induced reactions and the involvement of low-temperature favorable reactions on the Ru catalyst affect the stability of the catalyst. This study investigates the stability of shaped ceria-supported ruthenium catalysts under dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma at 350 °C. We detail the experimental setup and reaction parameters, followed by characterization of the spent catalysts to elucidate the mechanisms behind their relative stability. |
