A carbon and erosion resistant catalyst is provided for simultaneously converting hydrocarbons with steam and carbon dioxide to produce hydrogen and carbon monoxide while simultaneously reducing carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide in order to produce a reducing atmosphere. The catalyst consists of a cobalt component on an aluminous support, the aluminous support being aluminum oxide in the alpha phase and having a surface area of greater than .5 m2/gm. but not greater than 14 m2/gm. This catalyst is sufficiently active to convert the hydrocarbons to hydrogen and carbon monoxide at a relatively low initial temperature and within a relatively large temperature range and simultaneously reduce carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide in the carbon forming range without appreciable deposition of carbon on the catalyst or without catalyst erosion. |
