Researchers at Waseda University in Japan are investigating a novel catalytic system, activated by an electric field, for the ultralow temperature steam reforming of methane. However, the Waseda team’s process successfully reforms methane to hydrogen at a (relatively) very low temperature of 423 K (150 °C, 302 °F).

Researchers at Stanford University have devised a new strategy for using CO 2 in the synthesis of multi-carbon compounds. However, generating these required intermediates requires high-energy reagents (such as highly reducing metals or strong organic bases), carbon–heteroatom bonds or relatively acidic carbon–hydrogen (C–H) bonds.

Researchers at Kyoto University in Japan have proposed a novel two-stage process to convert low-rank coals or biomass wastes under mild conditions to high-quality liquid fuel. Also, liquefying high-oxygen content low-ranking coal and biomass also consumes more hydrogen and produces more CO 2 , significantly reducing process efficiency.
