A remarkably stable and active nickel (Ni) catalyst, supported on fibrous KCC-1 silica particles, was prepared by in situ one-pot hydrothermal method to produce a hydrogen-rich syngas. The catalysts’ properties were characterized by BET, XRD, FESEM-mapping, FTIR-pyrrole, FTIR-KBr, and XPS, while cok...
