Atomic Hydrogen Breakthrough: A Game-Changer for Green Methane Production

Tokyo, Thursday, 21 November 2024.
Scientists at Tokyo Institute of Technology have achieved an 11-fold increase in CO2 conversion using plasma-derived atomic hydrogen at just 230°C. This revolutionary breakthrough in low-temperature methanation could transform carbon capture technology, making it more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly. The process achieves an impressive 98% methane selectivity, marking a significant step towards sustainable fuel production.
