Self-regenerating catalyst restores its own performance, advancing CO₂ conversion technology

Technologies that convert carbon dioxide (CO₂) emitted from factories and power plants into useful chemical feedstocks are considered key to achieving carbon neutrality. However, rapid degradation of catalyst performance has long hindered commercialization. KAIST researchers have now developed a "self-regenerating" catalyst that restores its activity during operation, offering a potential solution to this challenge.
