A zoned catalyzed substrate monolith comprises a first zone and a second zone that are arranged axially in series. The first zone comprises a platinum group metal loaded on a support and a first base metal oxide or a first base metal loaded on an inorganic oxide. The first base metal oxide is iron oxide, manganese oxide, copper oxide, zinc oxide, nickel oxide, or mixtures thereof. The first base metal is iron, manganese, copper, zinc, nickel, or mixtures thereof. The second zone comprises copper or iron loaded on a zeolite and a second base metal oxide or a second base metal loaded on an inorganic oxide. The second base metal oxide is iron oxide, manganese oxide, copper oxide, zinc oxide, nickel oxide, or mixtures thereof. The second base metal is iron, manganese, copper, zinc, nickel, or mixtures thereof. The second base metal is different from the first base metal.

The present invention provides a process and catalyst for the autothermal and dry reforming of methane to produce syngas. The process provides a direct single step gas phase reforming of methane or natural gas to syngas over NiPt supported nanocrystalline ZrO.sub.2. The process provides methane conversion of 54-99% with H.sub.2/CO ratio of 1.14 to 1.42 (mol %) in the temperature range of 250 to 750 800 C. at atmospheric pressure.

A process of utilizing the catalyst for converting carbon oxide into methanol is provided. The process includes putting a catalyst into a fixed bed reactor and introducing a gas mixture of hydrogen and the carbon oxide into the fixed bed reactor, and performing a hydrogenation reaction under the effect of the catalyst to form the methanol

The present invention relates to a method for preparing, activating and regenerating a metal supported catalyst, comprising: treating a M.sub.a-M.sub.b-M.sub.c metal supported catalyst at 10-700 C. by using an ammonia or nitrogen-containing organic matter, wherein the M.sub.a metal is an active metal selected from one or more of a noble metal atom or a transition metal, the support is a common industrial porous catalyst, and the M.sub.a metal is dispersed on the support in a state of single atomic site. According to the M.sub.a-M.sub.b-M.sub.c metal supported noble metal/zinc catalyst treated by the method of the present invention, the direct dehydrogenation conversion rate and selectivity of catalyzing light alkanes are remarkably improved; the method for preparing the catalyst is simple in process, the catalytic activity after regeneration is still kept, and the catalyst can be industrially produced on a large scale.
