Abstract

Abstract: A series of oxides (La_2-xCe_xCoO_4±y) with perovskite-like structure were prepared by the Pechini sol-gel method for dry reforming of methane reaction (DRM). The prepared catalysts were characterized by BET, XRD, TGA, H₂-TPR and SEM. Experimental results indicate that the addition of Ce can impact both sample morphology and catalytic performance significantly compared with La₂CoO₄ catalyst, and LaCeCoO₄ presented the highest catalytic ability among all the samples. The Ce addition tends to increase the specific surface area of La_2-xCe_xCoO_4±y from 0.2 to 8.5 m²·g^-1, suggesting that LaCeCoO₄ catalyst contained more well-dispersed active sites and more space to reaction. Moreover, the catalytic performance and anti-coking ability were substantially improved after Ce addition during DRM, which may be attributed to the decrease of LaCoO₃ particle size and growth of oxygen storage capacity, respectively.
