Both promoted and unpromoted catalysts possessed high BET surface area of 303-445 m2 g-1. Additionally, SBA-15 support had a relatively uniform rod-like shape with a diameter of about 0.55 μm and a reduction in the crystallite size of NiO phase from 27.0 to 19.1 nm was observed with promoter addition reasonably due to the strong interaction between promoter and NiO particles. CeO2 and La2O3 dopants were finely dispersed on catalyst surface. Temperature-programmed oxidation of spent catalysts showed that coke-resistance was improved significantly with promoter modification and 3La-10Ni/SBA-15 catalyst was the most resistant to carbonaceous deposition rationally due to the least NiO crystallite size hindering the nucleation and growth of graphitic carbon. Hence, La-promoted catalyst appeared to be the optimum catalyst in terms of reactant conversion, H2 yield and stability whilst a gradual decline in both reactant conversion and H2 yield was experienced with unpromoted and Ce-doped catalysts. Regardless of catalyst types, the ratio of H2 to CO was always less than unity preferred for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. © 2016 The Authors. date: 2016 publisher: Elsevier Ltd official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85013882615&doi=10.1016%2fj.proeng.2016.06.556&partnerID=40&md5=a83ae641970c06ce8fa6eb428577304e id_number: 10.1016/j.proeng.2016.06.556 full_text_status: none publication: Procedia Engineering volume: 148 pagerange: 1388-1395 refereed: TRUE issn: 18777058 citation: Omoregbe, O. and Danh, H.T. and Abidin, S.Z. and Setiabudi, H.D. and Abdullah, B. and Vu, K.B. and Vo, D.-V.N.
