The main hurdle in the commercialization of DMR is the catalyst deactivation. Presently, the effect of Tungsten (W) addition on Ni-based catalysts supported on mixed oxide (Al2O3�MgO) support is tested for DMR. The Ni�W bimetallic catalysts are synthesized via co-precipitation followed by the impregnation technique. An equimolar stream of feed (CH4:CO2) is used for DMR at 800 °C. The Ni�W catalyst with 4 wt of W showed steady performance with elevated conversions of CH4 and CO2, even after 24 h of DMR. The freshly and spent catalysts are characterized by BET, XRD, FESEM, EDX, elemental mapping, TPR-H2, TPD-CO2, and XPS to confirm the elemental composition and the type of carbon formed on the catalysts. The activity of Ni catalyst declined due to formation of amorphous carbon-nanosheets, whereas Ni�W catalyst remained active due to formation of MWCNT. © 2021 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC date: 2021 publisher: Elsevier Ltd official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85108533597&doi=10.1016%2fj.ijhydene.2021.05.186&partnerID=40&md5=82a474bc3f13188f72f14082a19d262d id_number: 10.1016/j.ijhydene.2021.05.186 full_text_status: none publication: International Journal of Hydrogen Energy volume: 46 number: 53 pagerange: 27044-27061 refereed: TRUE issn: 03603199 citation: Yusuf, M. and Farooqi, A.S. and Al-Kahtani, A.A. and Ubaidullah, M. and Alam, M.A. and Keong, L.K. and Hellgardt, K. and Abdullah, B.
