Summary: | Abstract
The dry reforming of methane is a potential solution to mitigate the global warming effect. In this study, the effects of various preparation methods including the impregnation, coprecipitation, and combined coprecipitation-impregnation on physical characteristics and DRM catalytic performance of Ni-CeO
