This work pertains to the testing of Rh and Ni substituted pyrochlore catalysts for dry reforming of methane (DRM). DRM is environmentally and industrially relevant reaction which serves as 1) a means to consume greenhouse gases-CH4 and CO2, and 2) to produce H2/CO ratios for FT synthesis reaction.
