<p>A process for preparing a synthesis gas by reacting a carbon-containing organic compound with CO2 and/or steam, wherein use is made of a catalyst having carbon precipitation activity regulated to a very low value. The catalyst comprises a carrier made of a metal oxide and, supported thereon, at least one catalyst metal selected from among rhodium, luthenium, iridium, palladium, and platinum, and is characterized in that the specific surface area of the catalyst is not more than 25 m2/g, that the electronegativity of the metal ion in the carrier metal oxide is not more than 13.0, and that the amount of the catalyst metal carried is 0.0005 to 0.1 % by mole in terms of metal based on the carrier metal oxide.</p> |
