Carbon nanospike catalyst splits water, carbon dioxide and recombines atoms into heavier nanocarbons

In a new twist to an existing ORNL technology, researchers have developed an electrocatalyst that enables water and carbon dioxide to be split and the atoms recombined to form higher weight hydrocarbons for gasoline, diesel and jet fuel.
