Isotopic tracer and kinetic measurements were used to determine the identity and reversibility of elementary steps required for CH4–CO2 , CH4–H2O and CH4 decomposition reactions on supported Ir clusters. The results led to a simple and rigorous mechanism that includes steps required for these reactions as well as water–gas shift reactions. All three CH4 reactions gave similar forward rates, rat...

This article reports the first kinetics model for Supercritical Water Gasification (SCWG) that describes the formation and interconversion of individual gaseous species. The model comprises 11 reactions, and it uses a lumping scheme to handle the large number of intermediate compounds. We determined numerical values for the rate constants in the model by fitting it to experimental data previous...

In this research effect of synthesis method of magnesium aluminate as support of Ni catalysts at the reverse water gas shift (RWGS) reaction was evaluated. The RWGS reaction is applied in Carbon Dioxide Hydrogenation to Form Methanol via a Reverse Water-Gas Shift Reaction (CAMERE) process for the transformation of CO2 into methanol. The MgAl2O4 supports were prepared by sol-gel (M1), surfactant...
