Researchers from NIC, have published a new scientific article, “A Electrification of catalytic methane decomposition to hydrogen and nanostructured carbonaceous materials,” in International Journal of Hydrogen Energy. 

The paper summarises the current status and perspectives of the main methods for electrifying catalytic methane decomposition. This review offers an outlook on producing nanostructured carbonaceous products, such as carbon nanotubes, nanofibres, graphene, and graphite. By systematically reviewing the literature on this topic, it provides a comprehensive and simplified overview of the field, emphasising catalyst and reactor design, as well as possible routes to the electrification of catalytic methane decomposition, including plasma, microwave, and induction heating.
