This study presents the development of 2.5-10 wt Fe/CeO2 catalysts for biomass gasification to hydrogen. The catalysts were prepared using incipient wetness impregnation method. Different characterization methods such as Powder XRay Diffraction (XRD), Temperature Programmed Reduction (TPR), N2 adsorption-desorption isotherm and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) were used to characterize the prepared catalysts. BET analysis clearly indicates that Fe/CeO2 catalysts are mainly nonporous and the surface area of the catalysts increases with increasing of Fe loading. Characterization by XRD exhibited the formation of a solid solution of iron-cerium oxide, with the presence of cubic CeO2 structure which is in agreement with FESEM images. The TPR results show the emergence of two reduction peaks, corresponding to the surface and bulk reduction of CeO2 to Ce 2O3. No distinct peak related to the reduction of Fe 2O3 to Fe3O4, instead a shoulder evolved, related to the reduction of Fe3O4 to Fe. © 2012 American Institute of Physics. date: 2012 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84874459378&doi=10.1063%2f1.4769152&partnerID=40&md5=3fe5a5ad34150ea57be2bdbfba98a55f id_number: 10.1063/1.4769152 full_text_status: none publication: AIP Conference Proceedings volume: 1502 number: 1 place_of_pub: Sabah pagerange: 288-297 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9780735411197 issn: 0094243X citation: Mohamad, M.F. and Ramli, A. and Yusup, S.
