Owing to the enhanced performance of noble metal catalysts, these catalysts have gained a great deal of attention from the scientific community. Some metals are so reactive that they are capable of replacing the hydrogen in water. For instance, when present in the Ni-based catalyst, palladium disallows the oxidation of catalyst and maintains its reduced state. Some unstable acids decompose to produce nonmetal oxides and water. (2017). Dolomite (CaCO3.MgCO3) has very high efficiency and does not need to undergo any regeneration after the catalytic process (Widjaya et al., 2018).

Aqueous Phase Reforming of Ethylene Glycol - Role of Intermediates in Catalyst Performance. A Short Overview on the Hydrogen Production via Aqueous Phase Reforming (APR) of Cellulose, C6-C5 Sugars and Polyols. When only hydrogen is expected to be the sole product, then the reactions total efficiency remains 59%, and the rest gets trapped in the solid carbon produced. (2021). Glucose is an ideal candidate because of the reduction in the number of reaction steps (Fasolini et al., 2019): glucose is synthesized during the aqueous stream. This kinetics was designed to understand the process of catalytic deactivation better. Table 5 shows the data related to a few recent researches about hydrogen production via SMR method using Ni-based catalysts supported on various catalysts. 118, 46314701.

The resultant compounds include hydrogen and hydrocarbons, along with solid carbon molecules (Timmerberg et al., 2020). Hence there are no further separation processes required during the reaction and, therefore, are less complicated. 181, 340351. Iran J. Chem.

Figure 11 displays the general pathway followed for catalyst selection during TMD process. Metal oxides of alkaline earth metals are favorable for gasification reaction because they permit reformation reactions (Nikolaidis and Poullikkas, 2017). Carbonic acid decomposes easily at room temperature into carbon dioxide and water: \[\ce{H_2CO_3} \left( aq \right) \rightarrow \ce{CO_2} \left( g \right) + \ce{H_2O} \left( l \right)\nonumber \]. Moreover, despite alternative options being available, the dependence on fossil fuels and their derivatives will continue even in the future. The temperature of the reaction mixture is held constant. In another study, the catalytic activity of CeO2-ZrO2 and CeO2-TiO2 was studied (Chen et al., 2017a). Nickel-copper alloy catalysts show that supported catalysts have better functions as compared to unsupported catalysts. The main reason behind any catalysts deactivation is the deposition of solid carbon/coke on the catalysts surface. *Correspondence: Gowhar A. Naikoo, gahmed@du.edu.om; Mona Z.
