Theoretical study on dry reforming of methane over a Ni(111) surface under electric fields and with alkali metal additives
Hui Jiao, Gui‐Chang Wang
Abstract
The effect of alkali metals that enhance the activity and resistance to carbon deposition of Ni-based catalysts in the DRM reaction by favoring CO 2 dissociation can be reproduced by the external negative electric field quantitively.
