CATALYST FOR PREPARING METHANE-CONTAINING GAS

摘要

PURPOSE:To obtain a catalyst excellent in activity and selectivity, by supporting nickel or oxide thereof by a carrier containing a basic oxide mixture. CONSTITUTION:Nickel or nickel oxide is supported by a carrier containing a basic oxide mixture comprising two or more of an alkaline earth metal, a rare earth metal and an alkali metal. Thus obtained catalyst performs the highly active and highly selective reaction for forming methane-containing gas by using methanol or a mixture of methanol and water as a stock material.
