This project investigates the promotion of Ni-MCM-41 using boron or tin as promoters. MCM-41 mesoporous molecular sieves were synthesized by conventional hydrothermal synthesis. Nickel nitrate, boric acid and tin(II) chloride were used as Ni, B and Sn precursor respectively. Nickel catalysts and the...
