State-of-the-art transient kinetic techniques have been used for studying the mechanism of methane reforming into syngas. Steady-state isotopic transient kinetics (SSITK) and temporal analysis of products (TAP) experiments are reported for Ni- and Ru-silica supported reforming catalysts. Qualitative and quantitative data obtained from the transient kinetics are discussed and mechanistic conclusions are proposed.
