A series of Ni/SBA-15 catalysts was prepared by impregnation method. Effect of NiO content (30-60 mass%), calcination time (0.5-2h at 800 degrees C), and reduction time (1-2 h at 800 degrees C) on catalytic performance in combined steam and CO2 reforming of CH4 (CSCRM) was studied. N-2 physisorption measurements, powder X-ray diffraction, Hydrogen temperature-programmed reduction, CO2-temperature-programmed desorption, and transmission electron microscopy were used to investigate physico-chemical properties of the catalysts. The catalytic performance of Ni/SBA-15 in CSCRM was assessed in the temperature range of 550-800 degrees C. The results revealed suitable time for calcination and reduction being 0.5 h and 1.5 h, respectively. After these treatments, 40 mass% NiO/SBA-15 catalyst was more active and exhibited higher activity than others. At 750 degrees C, conversion of CH4 and CO2 on this catalyst in CSCRM was 91.05% and 78.11%, respectively. High surface area, better reducibility, and good affinity with CO2 contribute to the high performance of this catalyst.
