A series of Ni-Ta catalysts supported on fibrous ZSM-5 were synthesized by microemulsion and impregnation method. Catalytic activity and selectivity were influenced by incorporation of Ta into Ni catalyst. The side reaction (Boudouard, methane cracking, and reverse water gas shift reaction) tests ga...
