Experimental and theoretical modeling on low-temperature dry methane reforming over Ni-containing CeO$_2$ rods was studied. The catalyst was characterized by means of N$_2$ physisorption, in-situ XRD, TPR and H$_2$ chemisorption techniques. The characterization studies revealed the distortion of CeO$_2$ flourite structure due to the Ni incorporation. Lattice expansion (due to reduction) and contraction (due to oxidation) suggest the reversible redox nature of CeO$_2$. Ni–O–Ce solid solution formation was evidenced by both XRD and TPR studies. H$_2$ chemisorption study revealed that the catalyst reduction temperature plays a significant role in Ni dispersion. The catalyst showed similar activity trends in two model geometries: a between-two-plates microchannel fixed-bed reactor and a conventional fixed-bed reactor. The activity tests were conducted in the kinetic regime, where conversions of CH$_4$ were not influenced with the gas flow rate. A lattice Boltzmann model for mixed gas flow was developed along with a boundary condition for catalytic sites. The lattice Boltzmann model was used in a multiscale simulation of the studied reaction systems and produced data that qualitatively matched the experiments.
