Enhanced reactive CO2 species formation via V2O5-promoted NI/KCC-1 for low temperature activation of CO2 methanation

Application of CO2 methanation, especially in CO2-rich gas fields, could potentially provide additional value to the synthetic natural gas production. In this study, highly active vanadium (V2O5)-promoted Ni/KCC-1 catalysts with 5% nickel content were prepared using a co-impregnation method for CO2...
