Steam methane reforming using Ni/Pt catalysts

Renewable energies are the key for energy production in the near future. Among them, hydrogen technologies are expected to be used in a wide range of applications. The aim of this project is the study of a set of catalysts made of nickel, platinum and different supports such as ceria and magnesium/a...
