Abstract Highly dispersed Rh particles supported on Ce0.75Zr0.25O2-δ mixed with alumina were prepared by sorption-hydrolytic deposition technique. Produced catalyst exhibited high activity in autothermal reforming of n-hexadecane, but suffered from coking. Structured Rh/Ce0.75Zr0.25O2-δ-ƞ-Al2O3/FeCrAl catalyst was prepared by strongly bound catalytic coating deposition onto metallic wire mesh to provide effective heat transfer and avoid coking. Rh/Ce0.75Zr0.25O2-δ-ƞ-Al2O3/FeCrAl showed excellent performance in n-hexadecane autothermal reforming providing 100% conversion and stable operation for at least 12 h on stream without detection of any carbon deposits.
