| Abstract | In this paper, we describe the synthesis of Ni/SiO2 and Ni–Cu/SiO2 catalysts derived from phyllosilicate structures (Ni/SiO2P and Ni–Cu/SiO2P, respectively) for steam reforming of biomass tar reaction. The steam reforming of biomass tar reaction was investigated with cellulose as a biomass model compound. The influence of steam-to-carbon ratio and reaction temperatures was also explored. Overall, the catalysts synthesized via phyllosilicate structures gave better catalytic performance than the catalysts prepared by the impregnation method. An optimum catalyst composition of 30Ni–5Cu/SiO2P gave superior catalytic performance in terms of stability and activity compared to all other catalysts. At 600 °C, about 78% of biomass was converted to gaseous products over 30Ni–5Cu/SiO2P, which is the highest among all the catalysts tested. Temperature-programmed reduction results indicate that the metal–support interaction of Ni/SiO2P catalyst prepared via phyllosilicate structures is stronger due to the unique layered structure compared to that prepared by conventional impregnation (10Ni/SiO2). The formation of a unique layered structure in Ni/SiO2P and Ni–Cu/SiO2P was also confirmed through TEM analysis. The surface elemental composition results obtained from XPS analysis show that the Cu/Ni surface molar ratio for Ni–Cu/SiO2P catalysts is consistent with the actual molar ratio values obtained from SEM-EDX analysis. This result suggests that the bimetallic catalysts synthesized via the phyllosilicate structure route can yield uniformly distributed alloy species. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
