The kinetics of CO2 reforming with CH4 over a Ni-Co/Al-Mg-O bimetallic catalyst was investigated in a fixed bed reactor at a temperature range of 650-750 degrees C and the partial pressures of CO2 and CH4 ranging from 30 to 190 kPa. Owing to the simultaneous occurrence of the CO2 reforming reaction and the reverse water-gas shift reaction (RWGS) in the system, the apparent activation energies with respect to reactant consumption and product formation were found different and they are 69.4 and 25.9 kJ/moI for CH4 and CO2 consumption and 85.1 and 61.8 kJ/moI for H-2 and CO formation, respectively. It was also found that the reforming rate in terms of CH4 consumption was less sensitive to CO2 partial pressures but had stronger dependence on CH4 partial pressures. At a constant CH4 partial pressure, the increase in CO2 partial pressure did not cause significant change in the reforming rate, whereas at a constant CO2 partial pressure the reforming rate increased with the increase in CH4 partial pressure. The increase in extra CO2 at a constant CH4 pressure led to decreases in hydrogen (H-2) formation but increase in carbon monoxide (CO) formation due to the simultaneous occurrence of the reverse water-gas shift reaction. A Langmuir-Hinshelwood (L-H) model was also developed assuming that the dissociation of CH4 and the reaction between the carbon species and the activated carbon dioxide are the rate determining steps over the Ni-Co/Al-Mg-O. It satisfactorily fits the experimental data as well.
