Ni/FHY possessed good NiO distribution, improved metal-support interface, and strong basicity, accredited to the fibrous structure of FHY. This unique morphology led to the enrichment in the amount of accessible Ni active sites, thus resulting in the superior activity of Ni/FHY (XCH4=95.1,XCO2=91.1,H2/CO=0.89) compared to Ni/HY (XCH4=92.7,XCO2=89.8,H2/CO=0.78). Meanwhile, the inferior performance of Ni/HY could be caused by the poor distribution of Ni with large particles, thus contributing to high carbon deposition and Ni sintering. The unique physicochemical properties and superior catalytic activity confirmed its viability in the DRM. © 2022 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC %Z cited By 7
