N2  - Bi-reforming of methane (BRM) was evaluated for Ni catalyst dispersed on SBA-15 support prepared by hydrothermal technique. BRM reactions were conducted under atmospheric condition with varying reactant partial pressure in the range of 10â??45 kPa and 1073 K in fixed-bed reactor. The ordered hexagonal mesoporous SBA-15 support possessing large specific surface area of 669.5 m2 gâ??1 was well preserved with NiO addition during incipient wetness impregnation. Additionally, NiO species with mean crystallite dimension of 14.5 nm were randomly distributed over SBA-15 support surface and inside its mesoporous channels. Thus, these particles were reduced at various temperatures depending on different degrees of metal-support interaction. At stoichiometric condition and 1073 K, CH4 and CO2 conversions were about 61.6 and 58.9, respectively whilst H2/CO ratio of 2.14 slightly superior to theoretical value for BRM would suggest the predominance of methane steam reforming. H2 and CO yields were significantly enhanced with increasing CO2/(CH4 + H2O) ratio due to growing CO2 gasification rate of partially dehydrogenated species from CH4 decomposition. Additionally, a considerable decline of H2 to CO ratio from 2.14 to 1.83 was detected with reducing H2O/(CH4 + CO2) ratio due to dominant reverse water-gas shift side reaction at H2O-deficient feedstock. Interestingly, 10Ni/SBA-15 catalyst was resistant to graphitic carbon formation in the co-occurrence of H2O and CO2 oxidizing agents and the mesoporous catalyst structure was still maintained after BRM. A strong correlation between formation of carbonaceous species and catalytic activity was observed. © 2018 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC
