The present application provides a reforming catalyst, a preparation method and application thereof. The catalyst contains a carrier and a reforming
active component supported on the carrier. The reforming
active component elements include iron and a
transition metal. The reduction peak temperature of the surface active
metal in the
hydrogen temperature programmed reduction test is less than or equal to the reduction peak temperature of a sample with a corresponding
active component dispersion of 50%. And / or the active
metal is dispersedly distributed on the surface of the carrier. The method comprises: contacting a solution containing a source of the reforming active component with a source of the carrier in equal volumes, the polarity of the
solvent in the solution or the weighted polarity in terms of
mole fraction is weak polarity, and then
drying and calcining. The present application provides a method for dry reforming of ethane and
carbon dioxide. The preparation method of the catalyst of the present application controls the polarity of the mixed
solvent in the one-step equal-volume co-impregnation, so as to obtain a
surface structure with controllable active component distribution. The preparation method of the catalyst of the present application is simple, has little influence on the environment, and is suitable for large-scale production.
