Catalytic methanation on conversion of carbon dioxide over alumina-supported manganese oxide catalysts

In this study, the catalytic methanation conversion system is introduced to convert CO2 to methane (CH4). Hot mix asphalt (HMA) plants include of heating, drying and mixing processes contributed to carbon dioxide (CO2 ) emissions. The first stage of the study is the analysis of flue gases emissions...
