Ni-MgO-Al2O3 catalysts have been designed by a co-precipitation method for direct internal reforming in a molten carbonate fuel cell. MgO content has been systematically changed to develop a highly active and KOH resistant catalyst. The developed catalyst (MgO = 10 wt%) exhibits the strongest stability against KOH as well as very high activity.
