Sumario:In this work, the influence of the porous structure of the catalyst, as well as the effect of La doping on the performance of Ni-ceria-based catalysts for the reverse water-gas shift reaction (rWGS) has been studied. Thus, Ni-ceria and Ni-La doped ceria catalysts have been prepared using nanocasting or hard-templating method, also studying the influence of the incorporation method of the nickel phase. Samples prepared by sol-gel were also prepared for comparison. The catalysts were tested in the rWGS and characterized by different techniques: X-ray diffraction (XRD), electron microscopy (TEM and STEM-EDX), adsorption-desorption N2 isotherms (BET), temperature programmed reduction (TPR-H2), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The results obtained indicate that the mesoporous catalysts prepared by hard-templating, regardless of the nickel incorporation method have developed a mesoporous structure and a relatively large specific surface area that increases CO formation per catalyst weight, compared to those prepared by sol-gel. The method of incorporating Ni into mesoporous catalysts influences the level of catalyst deactivation and the evolution of CO selectivity with reaction time. © 2025 The Author(s).
