Japanese researchers find photocatalytic CO2 conversion to methane promising

June 15, 2026 |

In Japan, photocatalytic conversion of carbon dioxide to methane offers a promising route for carbon recycling, but its low efficiency and unclear mechanisms limit its practical use. Researchers at the Chiba University have now examined how light-driven and heat-driven processes work together in Ru–Ni–ZrO2 catalysts, achieving record methane production rates. This work clarifies the reaction […]
