Dry reforming of methane produces syngas with desirable H-2/CO ratio. Besides noble metal catalysts, the cobalt catalyst performs good activity in this reaction. However, carbon deposition and catalyst deactivation are becoming the main problems inhibiting the scale up of this process into industrial application. Recently, many scientists were trying to increase the activity as well as the stability toward coking by using variants of support, promoter, and combination of metal series catalyst. This paper presents a recent technology of methane dry reforming over cobalt metal-base catalyst, covering the catalyst activity and their resistance of catalyst deactivation.
