Ni catalysts modified with trace noble metals are excellent catalysts for the autothermal reforming reaction of methane to produce synthesis gas. 因此，微量贵金属修饰的镍基催化剂是甲烷临氧自热重整制合成气反应的优秀催化剂。
Dorner and colleagues found that using the usual cobalt-based catalyst on seawater-derived CO2 produced almost entirely methane gas. 多纳和同事发现，在海水衍生的二氧化碳中使用普通的钴基催化剂，产生的几乎全是甲烷气体。
