This paper reports on the catalytic pyrolysis of glycerol into syngas over a 3 wt%Ce-20 wt%Ni/77 wt% α-Al2O3 catalyst and at reaction temperatures of 973 K, 1023 K and 1073 K. NH3- and CO2-TPD analyses have revealed that the as-synthesized catalyst was net acidic with acid-to-basic site ratio of 1.2...
