Chemical looping reforming of CH 4 coupled with CO 2 reduction stands out as a promising method for the syngas production. In this process, it is significant to design the oxygen carrier with high reactivity and stability. In this work, a highly efficient oxygen carrier is obtained by physically mixing Metal-modified ZSM-5 with LaFe 0.85 Ni 0.15 O 3 (LFN). The physical and chemical properties of the oxygen carriers are characterized by XRD, Raman, XPS, BET, TEM, NH 3 -TPD, CO 2 -TPD and CH 4 -TPD techniques. It is noted that mesoporous structures are formed over the Ni modified ZSM-5, due to that part of Ni elements replace Al in the silicaluminate framework. The structure change of the ZSM-5 promotes the gas adsorption capacity. CH 4 and CO 2 cannot be adsorbed on the surface of ZSM-5, while Ni-modified ZSM-5 enhances the adsorption capacity for CO 2 to a large degree. Moreover, Ni species are acted as active sites to facilitate the activation of CH 4 and CO 2 during the redox process. The aggregation-redispersion of Ni particles during the reduction-oxidation process inhibits the deactivation of Ni particles, which improves the stability of the oxygen carrier. Among all the obtained samples, LFN/10 wt% Ni-ZSM-5 exhibits the highest yields of syngas (8.38 mmol g−1) and CO (2.42 mmol g−1). [Display omitted] • Modifying ZSM-5 with Ni changed the pore structures and acid sites. • Ni-modified ZSM-5 promoted the adsorption capacity towards CO 2. • The activation of CH 4 and CO 2 could be improved over Ni-modified ZSM-5. • Ni particles maintained active by aggregation-redispersion under redox atmospheres. • LFN/10 wt% Ni-ZSM-5 exhibited high stability either in the activity or structure.
