Abstract
Alumina-supported nickel catalysts prepared by the methods of impregnation and coprecipitation and heated at four different temperatures showed that the optimal calcination temperature for both types of catalysts lies in the region of 623-673 K. Crystallite size measurements by XRD revealed that coprecipitated samples have larger crystallites than the impregnated samples. The total surface areas measured by nitrogen adsorption and the results of metal area measurements made by hydrogen adsorption are in agreement with the crystallite size results.Keywords
