FIELD: chemistry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the technology of processing hydrocarbon material, particularly a method of producing a catalyst for the process of producing synthesis gas from gaseous hydrocarbon material, e.g. methane, natural gas or associated petroleum gases. Described is a method of preparing a catalyst for producing synthesis gas by partial oxidation of methane using FeCrAl, in which starting FeCrAl is subjected to defatting in hot acetone, followed by chemical treatment by completely submerging the FeCrAl in a bath with concentrated hydrochloric acid for 5-15 minutes, with further washing of the treated FeCrAl in hot water at temperature of 60-80°C, followed by re-submerging in a bath with 40% hydrofluoric acid heated to 60°C for 20-50 minutes and further washing of the treated FeCrAl in hot water at temperature of 60-80°C, drying and calcining on air at 500°C.

EFFECT: obtaining a catalyst with high selectivity and lower soot formation.
