Summary: | A physically durable catalyst composition having high and long-lived catalytic activity comprising calcium aluminate and nickel promoted with a barium salt of an organic acid is provided. The catalyst is preferably prepared by impregnating the calcium aluminate support with a nickel salt, reducing the nickel salt-impregnated calcium aluminate and then adding the barium salt, followed by drying prior to use. The catalyst has utility in the steam reforming of hydrocarbons to produce gaseous products rich in methane, fungible with natural gas. |
