Ni-Ir/MgAl2O4 for balanced carbon deposition-elimination in methane dry reforming

In this issue of Chem Catalysis, Zhao and co-workers developed a Ni-Ir/MgAl2O4 alloy catalyst offering comparable rates of CH4 dissociation and CO2 activation to avoid carbon deposition, a major undesired side reaction in methane dry reforming.
