Large surface areas nano-scale zirconia was prepared by the self-assembly route and was employed as support in nickel catalysts for the CO selective methanation. The effects of Ni loading and the catalyst calcination temperature on the performance of the catalyst for CO selective methanation reaction were investigated. The catalysts were characterized by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET)
transmission electron microscope (TEM)
X-ray diffraction (XRD) and temperature-programmed reduction (TPR). The results showed that the as-synthesized Ni/nano-ZrO

catalysts presented high activity for CO methanation due to the interaction between Ni active particle and nano zirconia support. The selectivity for the CO methanation influenced significantly by the particle size of the active Ni species. The exorbitant calcination resulted in the conglomeration of dispersive Ni particles and led to the decrease of CO methanation selectivity. Among the catalysts studied
