Ni-CeO2 catalysts with a nickel content of 50 mol% were prepared using RF thermal plasma, and their catalytic activities for methane partial oxidation were characterized. For the synthesis of Ni-CeO2 catalysts, a precursor containing Ni (∼5-μm diameter) and CeO2 (∼200-nm diameter) powders were heate...
