  • A PROCESS FOR PREPARING A MOLDING, A MOLDING AND USE THEREOF AS METHANE REFORMING CATALYST
    Publication number: 20230095488
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing a molding comprising a mixed oxide comprising O, Mg, and Ni, the process comprising: —(i) mixing water, a Mg source, a Ni source, and an acid, to obtain a mixture; —(ii) subjecting the mixture obtained from (i) to a shaping process; —(iii) calcining the molding obtained from (ii) in a gas atmosphere having a temperature in the range of from 700 to 1400° C.; wherein the molar ratio of the acid used in (i) to Ni, calculated as elemental Ni, of the Ni source used in (i), acid:Ni, is equal to or higher than 0.001:1. Further, the present invention relates to a molding comprising a mixed oxide comprising O, Mg, and Ni, wherein the mixed oxide comprises a specific crystalline phase NixMgyO, wherein the sum of x and y is 1, and wherein y is greater than 0.52. The molding is used for reforming methane to a synthesis gas comprising hydrogen and carbon monoxide.

  • Process for the continuous production of a catalyst
    Patent number: 8569196
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the continuous production of a catalyst comprising an alloy of a metal of the platinum group and at least a second metal as alloying metal selected from among the metals of the platinum group and the transition metals, in which a catalyst comprising the metal of the platinum group is mixed with at least one complex each comprising the alloying metal to give an alloy precursor and the alloy precursor is heated in a continuously operated furnace to produce the alloy.
