| Abstract Scope |
Dry reforming of methane with carbon dioxide is a promising technology for producing syngas and mitigating greenhouse gas emissions. However, the widely investigated solid catalysts typically suffer from coking and sintering that cause degradation in catalytic performance. Liquid alloys and molten salts are emerging as promising catalytic materials for methane processing. In this presentation, I will discuss on the combination of electrolysis and thermocatalysis for methane dry reforming in a naturally stratifying liquid alloy-salt system inside a bubble column reactor. Effective and stable catalytic performance were achieved under relatively mild operation conditions. The electrochemical process integrating electrolysis with thermocatalysis in the liquid alloy-salt system represents a promising approach to achieving effective and stable methane dry reforming.
