The Enhancement of Activity and Stability of Ni@MOF-5 for CO2 Methanation at Low Temperature Via Controlling Active Species Dispersion

A novel high active catalyst Ni@MOF-5 was investigated for CO2 methanation, which showed unexpected higher activity and stability for CO2 methanation at the low temperature (from 180 to 320°C) due to very high dispersion of Ni (41.8%) up to 100 h without deactivation.
