Carbon Dioxide as a Source of Carbon in Chemical Synthesis

The catalytic activity of nanostructurized low per cent (1%) Co-Ni catalysts on the basis of glass cloth, obtained by “solution combustion” (SC) method, in the reaction of carbon dioxide of methane was studied. The physico - chemical characteristics of the obtained species were studied by the methods of X-ray phase analysis, SEM, TEM, TGA. It is found that SC method allows to obtain an active component on the surface of glass cloth in the form of nanopaticles. A high activity of the catalyst, the active component of which is cobalt, is revealed; the decrease in Co concentration in the matrix of glass cloth results in the decrease of activity in the reaction of carbon dioxide conversion of methane.
