New Flame-Synthesis Method Creates Catalysts to Convert CO2 into Methane

Researchers from Science Tokyo developed a flame-assisted spray pyrolysis method to manufacture nickel-cerium oxide catalysts that efficiently convert carbon dioxide into methane.

• Flame-assisted spray pyrolysis produces nickel-cerium oxide catalysts for CO2 conversion
• Catalysts feature finer nanoparticles and increased active sites compared to conventional methods
• Method is suitable for large-scale production of carbon-neutral fuel technologies
