abstract = {Carbon monolith supports have been manufactured using 3D printed channels template and resorcinol-formaldehyde carbonizable resin. These carbon monoliths were loaded with NiO-CeO2 nanoparticles (Np) as the active phase and tested for CO2 hydrogenation to CH4, focusing on the effect of sealing the carbon porosity with MgO. The MgO coating improves CO2 conversion to CH4 by preventing the NiO-CeO2 nanoparticles from settling within the microporous structure of the carbon support, where gas diffusion limitations hinder access to the active phase. This was confirmed by SEM images, which evidence the introduction of NiO-CeO2 (Np) into the carbon matrix of the bare carbon monolith support and the accumulation of the active phase at the surface of the monolith channels once the porosity is sealed. Other characterization techniques like N2 adsorption and Hg porosimetry, confirm that the porosity is blocked by MgO. On the other hand, it has been demonstrated that there is not a relevant chemical effect of MgO on the NiO-CeO2 (Np) catalytic performance for the carbon monoliths supported catalysts, because the contact between the MgO and NiO-CeO2 phases is poor due to the dispersing effect of carbon.},
