Abstract
The hydrogenation of CO2 to CH4 has gained considerable interest in terms of sustainable energy and environmental mitigation. In this regard, the present work aims to investigate the adsorptive concentration and CO2 methanation performance over CoFe and NiFe bimetallic catalysts supported on fumed alumina-silica SA96 support at 170-450 °C and under atmospheric pressure. The catalysts were prepared by wet impregnation method, subjected to calcination and further reduced with hydrogen, and their performance in CO2 methanation was investigated in a hydrogen-rich 2%CO2-55%H2-43%He gas mixture. In this study, we describe the crystal and mesoporous structures of the prepared catalysts by in-situ XRD and ex-situ nitrogen adsorption, evaluate the NiFe and CoFe metal surface states before and after catalysis by XPS, visualize the surface morphology by SEM, estimate the catalytic activity by gas chromatography, and investigate the adsorbed surface species, showing the presence of *HCOO/*HCO and *CO intermediates, determine two possible pathways of CH4 formation on the studied catalysts by temperature-programmed desorption mass spectrometry, and correlate the structural and surface properties with high CO2 conversions up to 100% and methanation selectivities up to 72%. The latter is related to changes in the elemental chemical states and surface composition of CoFe and NiFe nanocatalysts induced by treatment under reaction conditions, and the surface reconstruction during catalysis transfers the part of active 3d transition metals into the pores of the SA96 support. Our thorough characterization study with complementary techniques allowed us to conclude that this high activity is related to the formation of catalytically active Ni/Ni3Fe and Co/CoFeOx nanoscale crystallites under H2 reduction and their maintenance under CO2 methanation conditions. The successfully applied combination of CO2 chemisorption and thermodesorption techniques demonstrates the ability to adsorb the CO2 molecules by supported NiFe and CoFe nanocatalysts and the pure alumina-silica SA96 support.

RSC Adv 2024; 14:20240-20253.

Abstract
Engineering the interfacial interaction between the active metal element and support material is a promising strategy for improving the performance of catalysts toward CO2 methanation. Herein, the Ni-doped rare-earth metal-based A-site substituted perovskite-type oxide catalysts (Ni/AMnO3; A = Sm, La, Nd, Ce, Pr) were synthesized by auto-combustion method, thoroughly characterized, and evaluated for CO2 methanation reaction. The XRD analysis confirmed the perovskite structure and the formation of nano-size particles with crystallite sizes ranging from 18 to 47 nm. The Ni/CeMnO3 catalyst exhibited a higher CO2 conversion rate of 6.6 × 10-5 molCO2 gcat -1 s-1 and high selectivity towards CH4 formation due to the surface composition of the active sites and capability to activate CO2 molecules under redox property adopted associative and dissociative mechanisms. The higher activity of the catalyst could be attributed to the strong metal-support interface, available active sites, surface basicity, and higher surface area. XRD analysis of spent catalysts showed enlarged crystallite size, indicating particle aggregation during the reaction; nevertheless, the cerium-containing catalyst displayed the least increase, demonstrating resilience, structural stability, and potential for CO2 methanation reaction.

Abstract
CO2 methanation has attracted considerable attention as a promising strategy for recycling CO2 and generating valuable methane. This study presents a niobium-doped CeO2-supported Ni catalyst (Ni/NbCe), which demonstrates remarkable performance in terms of CO2 conversion and CH4 selectivity, even when operating at a low temperature of 250 °C. Structural analysis reveals the incorporation of Nb species into the CeO2 lattice, resulting in the formation of a Nb-Ce-O solid solution. Compared with the Ni/CeO2 catalyst, this solid solution demonstrates an improved spatial distribution. To comprehend the impact of the Nb-Ce-O solid solution on refining the electronic properties of the Ni-Ce interfacial sites, facilitating H2 activation, and accelerating the hydrogenation of CO2* into HCOO*, in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) analysis and density functional theory (DFT) calculations were conducted. These investigations shed light on the mechanism through which the activity of CO2 methanation is enhanced, which differs from the commonly observed CO* pathway triggered by oxygen vacancies (OV). Consequently, this study provides a comprehensive understanding of the intricate interplay between the electronic properties of the catalyst's active sites and the reaction pathway in CO2 methanation over Ni-based catalysts.

Abstract
Catalytic CO2 hydrogenation is an effective approach to producing clean fuels, but this process is expensive, in addition to the low efficiency of catalysts. Thus, photothermal CO2 hydrogenation can effectively utilize solar energy for CH4 production. Metal-organic framework (MOF) derived materials with a controlled structure and morphology are promising to give a high number of active sites and photostability in thermal catalytic reactions. For the first time, a novel heterostructure catalyst was synthesized using a facile approach to in situ grow MOF-derived 0D Co3O4 over 1D TiO2 nanowires (NWs). The original 3D dodecahedral structure of the MOF is engineered into novel 0D Co3O4 nanospheres, which were uniformly embedded over Ni-dispersed 1D TiO2 NWs. In situ prepared 10Ni-7Co3O4@TiO2 NWs-I achieved an excellent photothermal CH4 evolution rate of 8.28 mmol/h at 250 °C under low-intensity visible light, whereas UV light treatment further increased activity by 1.2-fold. UV irradiations promoted high CH4 production while improving the susceptibility of the catalyst to visible light irradiation. The photothermal effect is prominent at lower temperatures, due to the harmonization of both solar and thermal energy. By paralleling with mechanically assembled 10Ni-7Co3O4/TiO2 NWs-M, the catalytic performance of the in situ approach is far superior, attributing to the morphological transformation of 0D Co3O4, which induced intimate interfacial interactions, formation of oxygen vacancies and boosted photo-to-thermal effects. The co-existence of metallic/metal oxide Ni-Co provided beneficial synergies, enhanced photo-to-thermal effects, and improved charge transfer kinetics of the composite. This work uncovers a facile approach to engineering the morphology of MOF derivatives for efficient photothermal CO2 methanation.

Abstract
For many years, capturing, storing or sequestering CO2 from concentrated emission sources or from air has been a powerful technique for reducing atmospheric CO2. Moreover, the use of CO2 as a C1 building block to mitigate CO2 emissions and, at the same time, produce sustainable chemicals or fuels is a challenging and promising alternative to meet global demand for chemicals and energy. Hence, the chemical incorporation and conversion of CO2 into valuable chemicals has received much attention in the last decade, since CO2 is an abundant, inexpensive, nontoxic, nonflammable, and renewable one-carbon building block. Nevertheless, CO2 is the most oxidized form of carbon, thermodynamically the most stable form and kinetically inert. Consequently, the chemical conversion of CO2 requires highly reactive, rich-energy substrates, highly stable products to be formed or harder reaction conditions. The use of catalysts constitutes an important tool in the development of sustainable chemistry, since catalysts increase the rate of the reaction without modifying the overall standard Gibbs energy in the reaction. Therefore, special attention has been paid to catalysis, and in particular to heterogeneous catalysis because of its environmentally friendly and recyclable nature attributed to simple separation and recovery, as well as its applicability to continuous reactor operations. Focusing on heterogeneous catalysts, we decided to center on zeolite and ordered mesoporous materials due to their high thermal and chemical stability and versatility, which make them good candidates for the design and development of catalysts for CO2 conversion. In the present review, we analyze the state of the art in the last 25 years and the potential opportunities for using zeolite and OMS (ordered mesoporous silica) based materials to convert CO2 into valuable chemicals essential for our daily lives and fuels, and to pave the way towards reducing carbon footprint. In this review, we have compiled, to the best of our knowledge, the different reactions involving catalysts based on zeolites and OMS to convert CO2 into cyclic and dialkyl carbonates, acyclic carbamates, 2-oxazolidones, carboxylic acids, methanol, dimethylether, methane, higher alcohols (C2+OH), C2+ (gasoline, olefins and aromatics), syngas (RWGS, dry reforming of methane and alcohols), olefins (oxidative dehydrogenation of alkanes) and simple fuels by photoreduction. The use of advanced zeolite and OMS-based materials, and the development of new processes and technologies should provide a new impulse to boost the conversion of CO2 into chemicals and fuels.

Abstract
CO2 methanation is an attractive reaction to convert CO2 into a widespread fuel such as methane, being the combination of catalysts and a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma responsible for synergistic effects on the catalyst’s performances. In this work, a Ru-based zeolite catalyst, 3Ru/CsUSY, was synthesized by incipient wetness impregnation and characterized by TGA, XRD, H2-TPR, N2 sorption and CO2-TPD. Catalysts were tested under thermal and plasma-assisted CO2 methanation conditions using in-situ operando FTIR, with the aim of comparing the mechanism under both types of catalysis. The incorporation of Ru over the CsUSY zeolite used as support induced a decrease of the textural properties and an increase of the basicity and hydrophobicity, while no zeolite structural damage was observed. Under thermal conditions, a maximum CO2 conversion of 72% and CH4 selectivity above 95% were registered. These promising results were ascribed to the presence of small Ru0 nanoparticles over the support (16 nm), catalyst surface hydrophobicity and the presence of medium-strength basic sites in the catalyst. Under plasma-catalytic conditions, barely studied in similar setups in literature, CO2 was found to be excited by the plasma, facilitating its adsorption on the surface of 3Ru/CsUSY in the form of oxidized carbon species such as formates, aldehydes, carbonates, or carbonyls, which are afterwards progressively hydrogenated to methane. Adsorption and surface reaction of key intermediates, namely formate and aldehydic groups, was observed even on the support alone, an occurrence not reported before for thermal catalysis. Overall, similar reaction mechanisms were proposed for both thermal and plasma-catalysis conditions.

Abstract
Renewed interest in CO2 methanation is due to its role within the framework of the Power-to-Methane processes. While the use of nickel-based catalysts for CO2 methanation is well stablished, the support is being subjected to thorough research due to its complex effects. The objective of this work was the study of the influence of the support with a series of catalysts supported on alumina, ceria, ceria–zirconia, and titania. Catalysts’ performance has been kinetically and spectroscopically evaluated over a wide range of temperatures (150–500 °C). The main results have shown remarkable differences among the catalysts as concerns Ni dispersion, metallic precursor reducibility, basic properties, and catalytic activity. Operando infrared spectroscopy measurements have evidenced the presence of almost the same type of adsorbed species during the course of the reaction, but with different relative intensities. The results indicate that using as support of Ni a reducible metal oxide that is capable of developing the basicity associated with medium-strength basic sites and a suitable balance between metallic sites and centers linked to the support leads to high CO2 methanation activity. In addition, the results obtained by operando FTIR spectroscopy suggest that CO2 methanation follows the formate pathway over the catalysts under consideration.

Abstract
The catalytic hydrogenation of captured CO2 by different industrial processes allows obtaining liquid biofuels and some chemical products that not only present the interest of being obtained from a very low-cost raw material (CO2) that indeed constitutes an environmental pollution problem but also constitute an energy vector, which can facilitate the storage and transport of very diverse renewable energies. Thus, the combined use of green H2 and captured CO2 to obtain chemical products and biofuels has become attractive for different processes such as power-to-liquids (P2L) and power-to-gas (P2G), which use any renewable power to convert carbon dioxide and water into value-added, synthetic renewable E-fuels and renewable platform molecules, also contributing in an important way to CO2 mitigation. In this regard, there has been an extraordinary increase in the study of supported metal catalysts capable of converting CO2 into synthetic natural gas, according to the Sabatier reaction, or in dimethyl ether, as in power-to-gas processes, as well as in liquid hydrocarbons by the Fischer-Tropsch process, and especially in producing methanol by P2L processes. As a result, the current review aims to provide an overall picture of the most recent research, focusing on the last five years, when research in this field has increased dramatically.

Abstract
Introducing new materials with low cost and superior solar harvesting efficiency requires urgent attention to solve energy and environmental challenges. Titanium carbide (Ti3C2T x ) MXene, a 2D layered material, is a promising solution to solve the issues of existing materials due to their promising conductivity with low cost to function as a cocatalyst/support. On the other hand, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are emerging materials due to their high surface area and semiconducting characteristics. Therefore, coupling them would be promising to form composites with higher solar harvesting efficiency. Thus, the main objective of this work to disclose recent development in Ti3C2T x -based MOF nanocomposites for energy conversion applications to produce renewable fuels. MOFs can generate photoinduced electron/hole pairs, followed by transfer of electrons to MXenes through Schottky junctions for photoredox reactions. Currently, the principles, fundamentals, and mechanism of photocatalytic systems with construction of Schottky junctions are critically discussed. Then the basics of MOFs are discussed thoroughly in terms of their physical properties, morphologies, optical properties, and derivatives. The synthesis of Ti3C2T x MXenes and their composites with the formation of surface functionals is systematically illustrated. Next, critical discussions are conducted on design considerations and strategies to engineer the morphology of Ti3C2T x MXenes and MOFs. The interfacial/heterojunction modification strategies of Ti3C2T x MXenes and MOFs are then deeply discussed to understand the roles of both materials. Following that, the applications of MXene-mediated MOF nanotextures in view of CO2 reduction and water splitting for solar fuel production are critically analyzed. Finally, the challenges and a perspective toward the future research of MXene-based MOF composites are disclosed.

Abstract
The rapid economic and societal development have led to unprecedented energy demand and consumption resulting in the harmful emission of pollutants. Hence, the conversion of greenhouse gases into valuable chemicals and fuels has become an urgent challenge for the scientific community. In recent decades, perovskite-type mixed oxide-based catalysts have attracted significant attention as efficient CO2 conversion catalysts due to the characteristics of both reversible oxygen storage capacity and stable structure compared to traditional oxide-supported catalysts. In this review, we hand over a comprehensive overview of the research for CO2 conversion by these emerging perovskite-type mixed oxide-based catalysts. Three main CO2 conversions, namely reverse water gas shift reaction, CO2 methanation, and CO2 reforming of methane have been introduced over perovskite-type mixed oxide-based catalysts and their reaction mechanisms. Different approaches for promoting activity and resisting carbon deposition have also been discussed, involving increased oxygen vacancies, enhanced dispersion of active metal, and fine-tuning strong metal-support interactions. Finally, the current challenges are mooted, and we have proposed future research prospects in this field to inspire more sensational breakthroughs in the material and environment fields.

Abstract
Active and stable catalysts are essential for effective hydrogenation of gaseous CO2 into valuable chemicals. This work focuses on the structural and catalytic features of single metals, i.e., Co and Ni, as well as bimetallic CoNi alloy catalysts synthesized via combustion of reactive sol-gels. Different characterization methods were used for studying the relationships between the structure, composition, and catalytic activity of the fabricated materials. All catalysts exhibited highly porous sponge-like microstructure. The outermost surfaces of the CoNi alloys were more saturated with Co, while a stoichiometric Co/Ni ratio was observed for the particle’s bulk. Catalytic properties of the as-synthesized powders were studied in the CO2 hydrogenation reaction at 300 °C for over 80 h of time on stream. All the catalysts demonstrated exceptional selectivity with respect to CH4 formation. However, the combination of elemental Co and Ni in a single phase resulted in a synergistic effect in bulk alloy catalysts, with activity twofold to threefold that of single-metal catalysts. The activity and stability of the CoNi3 catalyst were higher than those previously reported for Ni-based catalysts. The reasons for this behavior are discussed.

Abstract
Highly active and selective CO2 methanation catalysts are critical to CO2 upgrading, synthetic natural gas production, and CO2 emission reduction. Wet impregnation is widely used to synthesize oxide-supported metallic nanoparticles as the catalyst for CO2 methanation. However, as the reagents cannot be homogeneously mixed at an atomic level, it is challenging to modulate the microstructure, crystal structure, chemical composition, and electronic structure of catalysts via wet impregnation. Herein, a scalable and straightforward catalyst fabrication approach has been designed and validated to produce Sm0.25Ce0.75O2-δ-supported Ni (SDC-Ni) as the CO2 methanation catalyst. By varying the chelating agents-to-total metal cations ratio (C/I ratio) during the catalyst synthesis, we can readily and simultaneously modulate the microstructure, metallic surface area, crystal structure, chemical composition, and electronic structure of SDC-Ni, consequently fine-tuning the oxide-support interactions and CO2 methanation activity. The optimal C/I ratio (0.1) leads to an SDC-Ni catalyst that facilitates C-O bond cleavage and significantly improves CO2 conversion at 250 °C. A CO2-to-CH4 yield of >73% has been achieved at 250 °C. Furthermore, a stable operation of >1500 hours has been demonstrated, and no degradation is observed. Extensive characterizations were performed to fundamentally understand how to tune and enhance CO2 methanation activity of SDC-Ni by modulating the C/I ratio. The correlation of physical, chemical, and catalytic properties of SDC-Ni with the C/I ratio is established and thoroughly elaborated in this work. This study could be applied to tune the oxide-support interactions of various catalysts for enhancing the catalytic activity.

Abstract
CO2 methanation is a promising reaction for utilizing CO2 using hydrogen generated by renewable energy. In this study, CO and CO2 methanation were examined over ceria-supported cobalt catalysts with low cobalt contents. The catalysts were prepared using a wet impregnation and co-precipitation method and pretreated at different temperatures. These preparation variables affected the catalytic performance as well as the physicochemical properties. These properties were characterized using various techniques including N2 physisorption, X-ray diffraction, H2 chemisorption, temperature-programmed reduction with H2, and temperature-programmed desorption after CO2 chemisorption. Among the prepared catalysts, the ceria-supported cobalt catalyst that was prepared using a wet impregnation method calcined in air at 500 °C, and reduced in H2 at 500 °C, showed the best catalytic performance. It is closely related to the large catalytically active surface area, large surface area, and large number of basic sites. The in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) study revealed the presence of carbonate, bicarbonate, formate, and CO on metallic cobalt.

Abstract
Nickel– and cobalt–cerium bimetallic oxides were used as catalysts for the methanation of CO2 under pressure. The catalysts’ activity increases with pressure and an increase of just 10 bar is enough to double the yield of methane and to significantly improve the selectivity. The best results were those obtained over nickel–cerium bimetallic oxides, but the effect of pressure was particularly relevant over cobalt–cerium bimetallic oxides, which yield to methane increases from almost zero at atmospheric pressure to 50–60% at 30 bar. Both catalyst types are remarkably competitive, especially those containing nickel, which were always more active than a commercial rhodium catalyst used as a reference (5wt.% Rh/Al2O3) and tested under the same conditions. For the cobalt–cerium bimetallic oxides, the existence of a synergetic interaction between Co and CoO and the formation of cobalt carbides seems to play an important role in their catalytic behavior. Correlation between experimental reaction rates and simulated data confirms that the catalysts’ behavior follows the Langmuir–Hinshelwood–Hougen–Watson kinetic model, but Le Chatelier’s principle is also important to understand the catalysts’ behavior under pressure. A catalyst recycle study was also performed. The results obtained after five cycles using a nickel–cerium catalyst show insignificant variations in activity and selectivity, which are important for any type of practical application.

Abstract
Zeolites possessing large specific surface areas, ordered micropores, and adjustable acidity/basicity have emerged as ideal supports to immobilize metal species with small sizes and high dispersities. In recent years, the zeolite-supported metal catalysts have been widely used in diverse catalytic processes, showing excellent activity, superior thermal/hydrothermal stability, and unique shape-selectivity. In this review, a comprehensive summary of the state-of-the-art achievements in catalytic applications of zeolite-supported metal catalysts are presented for important heterogeneous catalytic processes in the last five years, mainly including 1) the hydrogenation reactions (e.g., CO/CO2 hydrogenation, hydrogenation of unsaturated compounds, and hydrogenation of nitrogenous compounds); 2) dehydrogenation reactions (e.g., alkane dehydrogenation and dehydrogenation of chemical hydrogen storage materials); 3) oxidation reactions (e.g., CO oxidation, methane oxidation, and alkene epoxidation); and 4) other reactions (e.g., hydroisomerization reaction and selective catalytic reduction of NOx with ammonia reaction). Finally, some current limitations and future perspectives on the challenge and opportunity for this subject are pointed out. It is believed that this review will inspire more innovative research on the synthesis and catalysis of zeolite-supported metal catalysts and promote their future developments to meet the emerging demands for practical applications.

Abstract
Co-precipitated Ni-Mg-Al hydrotalcite-derived catalyst promoted with vanadium were synthesized with different V loadings (0–4 wt%) and studied in CO2 methanation. The promotion with V significantly changes textural properties (specific surface area and mesoporosity) and improves the dispersion of nickel. Moreover, the vanadium promotion strongly influences the surface basicity by increasing the total number of basic sites. An optimal loading of 2 wt% leads to the highest activity in CO2 methanation, which is directly correlated with specific surface area, as well as the basic properties of the studied catalysts.

Abstract
We report the synthesis of a highly active and stable metal-organic framework derived Ni-based catalyst for the photothermal reduction of CO2 to CH4 . Through the controlled pyrolysis of MOF-74 (Ni), the nature of the carbonaceous species and therefore photothermal performance can be tuned. CH4 production rates of 488 mmol g-1 h-1 under UV-visible-IR irradiation are achieved when the catalyst is prepared under optimized conditions. No particle aggregation or significant loss of activity were observed after ten consecutive reaction cycles or more than 12 hours under continuous flow configuration. Finally, as a proof-of-concept, we performed an outdoor experiment under ambient solar irradiation, demonstrating the potential of our catalyst to reduce CO2 to CH4 using only solar energy.

Abstract
The hydrogenation of CO2 to produce CO and H2O, known as reverse-water-gas shift reaction (RWGS) is considered to be an important CO2 valorization pathway. This work is aimed at proposing the thin-film catalysts based on iron and cobalt oxides for this purpose. A series of Fe–Co nanocomposites were prepared by the plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) from organic cobalt and iron precursors on a wire-mesh support. The catalysts were characterized by SEM/EDX, XPS, XRD, and Raman spectroscopy and studied for hydrogenation of CO2 in a tubular reactor operating in the temperature range of 250–400 °C and atmospheric pressure. The Co-based catalyst, containing crystalline CoO phase, exhibited high activity toward CH4, while the Fe-based catalyst, containing crystalline Fe2O3/Fe3O4 phases, was less active and converted CO2 mainly into CO. Regarding the Fe–Co nanocomposites (incl. Fe2O3/Fe3O4 and CoO), even a small fraction of iron dramatically inhibited the production of methane. With increasing the atomic fraction of iron in the Fe–Co systems, the efficiency of the RWGS reaction at 400 °C increased up to 95% selectivity to CO and 30% conversion of CO2, which significantly exceeded the conversion for pure iron–based films (approx. 9%). The superior performance of the Fe–Co nanocomposites compared to “pure” Co and Fe–based films was proposed to be explained by assuming changes in the electronic structure of the catalyst resulting from the formation of p–n junctions between nanoparticles of cobalt and iron oxides.

Abstract
High-entropy alloys (HEAs) have been intensively pursued as potentially advanced materials because of their exceptional properties. However, the facile fabrication of nanometer-sized HEAs over conventional catalyst supports remains challenging, and the design of rational synthetic protocols would permit the development of innovative catalysts with a wide range of potential compositions. Herein, we demonstrate that titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a promising platform for the low-temperature synthesis of supported CoNiCuRuPd HEA nanoparticles (NPs) at 400 °C. This process is driven by the pronounced hydrogen spillover effect on TiO2 in conjunction with coupled proton/electron transfer. The CoNiCuRuPd HEA NPs on TiO2 produced in this work were found to be both active and extremely durable during the CO2 hydrogenation reaction. Characterization by means of various in situ techniques and theoretical calculations elucidated that cocktail effect and sluggish diffusion originating from the synergistic effect obtained by this combination of elements. Facile fabrication of high-entropy alloys (HEAs) nanoparticles (NPs) on conventional catalyst supports remains challenging. Here the authors show TiO2 is a promising platform for the low-temperature synthesis of supported CoNiCuRuPd HEA NPs with excellent activity and durability in CO2 hydrogenation.

Abstract
C1 chemistry, which is the catalytic transformation of C1 molecules including CO, CO2 , CH4 , CH3 OH, and HCOOH, plays an important role in providing energy and chemical supplies while meeting environmental requirements. Zeolites are highly efficient solid catalysts used in the chemical industry. The design and development of zeolite-based mono-, bi-, and multifunctional catalysts has led to a booming application of zeolite-based catalysts to C1 chemistry. Combining the advantages of zeolites and metallic catalytic species has promoted the catalytic production of various hydrocarbons (e.g., methane, light olefins, aromatics, and liquid fuels) and oxygenates (e.g., methanol, dimethyl ether, formic acid, and higher alcohols) from C1 molecules. The key zeolite descriptors that influence catalytic performance, such as framework topologies, nanoconfinement effects, Brønsted acidities, secondary-pore systems, particle sizes, extraframework cations and atoms, hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity, and proximity between acid and metallic sites are discussed to provide a deep understanding of the significance of zeolites to C1 chemistry. An outlook regarding challenges and opportunities for the conversion of C1 resources using zeolite-based catalysts to meet emerging energy and environmental demands is also presented.

Abstract
CO2 hydrogenation over Ni/SiO2 catalysts with and without Na additives was investigated in terms of the catalytic activity, selectivity of CO2 methanation and reaction mechanism. Na additives could cause the formation of Na2O species that might deposit on the Ni surface of Ni/SiO2 (NiNax/SiO2). When the Ni metal is partially covered with Na2O species, a highly positive charge on the Ni metal could occur compared to the original Ni/SiO2 catalyst. The addition of Na to the Ni/SiO2 catalyst could influence selectivity toward CO formation. The adsorbed formic acid is the major intermediate on the Ni/SiO2 catalyst during CO2 hydrogenation. The formic acid species might decompose into adsorbed CO complexes in the forms of linear CO, bridged CO and multibonded CO. CH4 formation should be ascribed to the hydrogenation of these adsorbed CO complexes. The Ni/SiO2 catalyst with the Na additive might have very weak ability for H2 and CO adsorption, thus making it difficult for CO methanation to occur. The hydrogen carbonate species adsorbed on the NiNax/SiO2 catalysts were proposed to be the key intermediate, and they might decompose to CO or be hydrogenated to form CH4.

Abstract
Hydrotalcite-derived Ni and Fe-promoted hydrotalcite-derived Ni catalysts were found to outperform industrial catalysts in the CO2 methanation reaction, however the origin of the improved activity and selectivity of these catalysts is not clear. Here, we report a study of these systems by means of in situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and near-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy elucidating the chemical nature of the catalysts surface under reaction conditions and revealing the mechanism by which Fe promotes activity and selectivity towards methane. We show that the increase of the conversion leads to hydroxylation of the Ni surface following the formation of water during the reaction. This excessive Ni surface hydroxylation has however a detrimental effect as shown by a controlled study. A dominant metallic Ni surface exists in conditions of higher selectivity towards methane whereas if an increase of the Ni surface hydroxylation occurs, a higher selectivity towards carbon monoxide is observed. The electronic structure analysis of the Fe species under reaction conditions reveals the existence of predominantly Fe(iii) species at the surface, whereas a mixture of Fe(ii)/Fe(iii) species is present underneath the surface when selectivity to methane is high. Our results highlight that Fe(ii) exerts a beneficial effect on maintaining Ni in a metallic state, whereas the extension of the Fe oxidation is accompanied by a more extended Ni surface hydroxylation with a negative impact on the selectivity towards methane.

Abstract
The industrial waste coal combustion fly ash (CCFA) was used as a cheap catalyst support and by facile co-impregnation method, the active component Ni and promoter Re was loaded to form a bimetallic catalyst for high-performance CO2 methanation. The physico-chemical properties of the prepared catalyst were further measured by a series of characterizations such as X-ray fluorescence (XRF), N2 isothermal adsorption-desorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), H2 temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR) et al. The effect of reaction temperature and gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) on the catalytic performance was carefully investigated on a continuous fixed-bed reactor. The results showed that in comparison with the non-promoted monometallic Ni/CCFA catalyst, the bimetallic Ni-Re/CCFA catalyst displayed a superior activity, which could achieve 99.55% of CO2 conversion and 70.27% of CH4 selectivity under the condition of 400 °C, 2000 h-1, 1 atm and H2:CO2:N2 = 4:1:0.5, possibly owing to the higher Ni dispersion and more active sites in Ni-Re/CCFA. Besides, the addition of Re promoter was beneficial to enhance the catalyst anti-sintering and anti-coking abilities as reflected by the smaller Ni particle size growth and less carbon deposition amount in Ni-Re/CCFA. The in-situ diffuse reflection infrared Fourier transform spectrum (in-situ DRIFTS) was finally carried out to determine the CO2 adsorption state and its methanation intermediates, from which a loop mechanism of CO2 methanation process was proposed and depicted.
