| Abstract | Excess crude glycerol derived as a by-product from biodiesel industry prompts the need to valorise glycerol to value-added chemicals. In this context, catalytic steam reforming of glycerol (SRG) was proposed as a promising and sustainable alternative for producing renewable hydrogen (H-2). Herein, the development of nickel (Ni) supported on ceria-modified mesoporous gamma-alumina (gamma-Al2O3) catalysts and their applications in catalytic SRG (at 550-750 degrees C, atmospheric pressure and weight hourly space velocity, WHSV, of 44,122 ml.g(-1).h(-1) (STP)) is presented. Properties of the developed catalysts were characterised using many techniques. The findings show that ceria modification improved Ni dispersion on gamma-Al2O3 catalyst support with highly active small Ni particles, which led to a remarkable catalytic performance with the total glycerol conversion (ca. 99%), glycerol conversion into gaseous products (ca. 77%) and H-2 yield (ca. 62%). The formation rate for H-2 production (14.4 x 10(-5) mol.s(-1).g(-1), TOF (H-2) = 3412 s(-1)) was significantly improved with the Ni@12Ce-Al2O3 catalyst, representing nearly a 2-fold increase compared with that of the conventional Ni@Al2O3 catalyst. In addition, the developed catalyst also exhibited comparatively high stability (for 12 h) and coke resistance ability.
