LaNiO₃ perovskite was prepared by the self-combustion method and tested as catalyst for CH₄ activation using the oxygen lattice at 700°C and 800°C. Based on the non-stoichiometry experiments, the perovskite formula is written as La³⁺Ni³⁺_0.37Ni²⁺_0.63O_2.68. When unreduced LaNiO_3-d perovskite is used, only b-type oxygen species were responsible for the partial CH₄ oxidation. Over non reduced perovskite high CH₄ conversions to H₂ and CO were obtained. CH₄ conversion and H₂, CO and CO₂, selectivities under quasi-stationary conditions were 100%, 80%, 98% and 2 % respectively at 800°C. At the beginning of the reaction, a complete oxidation of methane to CO₂ and H₂O took place, whereas a partial oxidation to CO and H₂ was observed after that period. In such conditions the H₂/CO molar ratio obtained was 1.7, indicating a contribution of the parallel reverse water gas shift reaction
