Resumen
This work describes the synthesis of platinum-nickel/lanthanum hexaaluminates (PtNi/LHA) and their performance in terms of stability and catalytic activity in the dry reforming of methane (DRM) at 973 K. An Al solution (9.40 g/L) obtained from an Al saline slag waste by acid extraction was used to synthesize the hexaaluminate by mixing with a stoichiometric amount of lanthanum nitrate and methano ...

This work describes the synthesis of platinum-nickel/lanthanum hexaaluminates (PtNi/LHA) and their performance in terms of stability and catalytic activity in the dry reforming of methane (DRM) at 973 K. An Al solution (9.40 g/L) obtained from an Al saline slag waste by acid extraction was used to synthesize the hexaaluminate by mixing with a stoichiometric amount of lanthanum nitrate and methanol/Peg400/PegMn400 under hydrothermal conditions at 493 K for 16 h. After calcination at 1473 K for 2 h, the presence of LHA was confirmed. Wet impregnation of the synthesized support was used to obtain an initial Ni/LHA catalyst (10 wt% NiO) and the modified PtNi/LHA catalysts (0.2–1 wt% Pt). The support and catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption at 77 K, temperature- programmed reduction (TPR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (HR- TEM). The analysis of the TPR patterns for the catalysts allowed the type of metal support interaction and NiO species to be determined, with a weak interaction with the support being observed in all cases. The presence of Pt promoted NiO reducibility. The PtNi/LHA catalysts synthesized were found to be active and very stable in the DRM reaction after reaction for 50 h. The catalytic behavior was evaluated from the CO2 and CH4 conversions, as well as the H2/CO selectivity, with values of between 89% and 92% in almost all the time range evaluated. The presence of Pt improved the stability and catalytic performance of Ni/LHA thus improving resistance to coke formation. [--]
