One of the hindrances towards syngas utilisation is the high content of tar compounds which fouls on equipment upon syngas cooling causing pipe clogging and corrosion. Catalytic steam reforming is a promising technology for tar decomposition. However, commercial Ni catalysts are usually only used in...
