title: On the origin of reactivity of steam reforming of ethylene glycol on supported Ni catalysts.
abstract: This paper describes a strategy for producing hydrogen via steam reforming of ethylene glycol over supported nickel catalysts. Nickel plays a crucial role in conversion of ethylene glycol and production of hydrogen, while oxide supports affect product distribution of carbonaceous species. A plausible reaction pathway is proposed based on our results and the literature.
