Abstract

The abundance presence of CO2 released into the atmosphere has gained numerous consideration for an effective method to mitigate the CO2 build up and recycling the carbon resource. Among the catalytic reactions, the methanation of CO2 has been an indispensable reaction to transform toxic CO2 into methane which can be use as energy carrier or valuable chemical. The application of heterogeneous catalyst in CO2 methanation plays a significant role due to its effectiveness and stability which led to lower costs for large scale production. This article discussed the recent developments of silica based catalyst for CO2 methanation with emphasized on its physicochemical properties and catalytic performance. In summary, the nature of silica support material such as morphology, textural properties and nature of basicity has a great influence on its catalytic performance towards CO2 methanation.
