Applying Non-Therma l Plasma to Synthesis of Nanostructured Ni/Al۲ O۳-M gO Cataly st for Syn gas Prod uction from CH۴/C O۲

Non thermal plasma treatmen t of catalysts has a significant effect on the fo rmation of small size and high dis persed nanocatalysts [۱-۳]. In this context we investigate how this method affect s on the properties of Ni/Al۲O۳-M gO nanoca talyst used in syngas production from CH۴/C O۲. Mate rials and m ethods:Two Ni(۱۰wt%)/Al۲O۳-MgO(۱۰wt%) c atalysts wer e prepared by impregnation with and witho ut non-ther mal plasma treatment. T he non-the rmal plasma treatment time was ۱ ۵ min and th e treatment was repeated for thre e times in order to get a uniformly treated powder. XRD, FESEM, T EM, BET and FTIR tech niques have been used to investigate the effect of the non-th ermal plasm a on the structure of Ni/Al۲O۳-Mg O nanocataly st.
