A Novel Preparation of Mn/NiCo2O4 Catalyst with High Catalytic Activity on Methane

In this paper, a Mn/NiCo 2 O 4 catalyst was prepared for the complete oxidation of low-concentration methane. When the ratio of Mn: Co is 1:4, the catalyst has the best catalytic activity, and the best methane conversion temperature Feis 400 °C. In addition, the catalytic activity remains stable during the long-term reaction, showing adequate thermal stability. The catalyst is grown on FeCrAl alloy by hydrothermal method to complete the catalytic oxidation of methane. In the catalysis process, the Mn/NiCo 2 O 4 -FeCrAl catalyst is energized and the current is directly passed through the alloy substrate to generate Joule heat, reaching the optimal catalytic temperature for complete oxidation of methane.
