Abstract	A gas-reforming catalyst is modified to obtain stability in high temperature. The catalyst uses α-Al2O3 as a carrier and is nano-porous. Hence, reaction surface is greatly broadened; and platinum contained inside does not become bigger after times of use. The catalyst does not deposit carbon and has long life. The stability of the catalyst can be still remained even at a temperature higher than 800° C.
