Support Induced Effects on the Ir Nanoparticles Activity, Selectivity and Stability Performance under CO<sub>2</sub> Reforming of Methane
The production of syngas (H<sub>2</sub> and CO)—a key building block for the manufacture of liquid energy carriers, ammonia and hydrogen—through the dry (CO2−) reforming of methane (DRM) continues to gain attention in heterogeneous catalysis, renewable energy technologies and sustainable...
