Thermal approaches have played a dominant role in driving chemical reactions within the chemicals and fuels industries, benefiting from ongoing enhancements in efficiency via heat integration, catalyst development, and process intensification. Nevertheless, these traditional thermal approaches remain heavily reliant on fossil fuels, and there exists an urgent demand for the implementation of renewable energy technologies to synthesize fuels, commodity chemicals, and specialty chemicals. Nonthermal plasmas have gained considerable attention in recent years as a promising solution, and the prospects of combining plasmas with suitable catalysts have become even more appealing. Moreover, the evolution of nonthermal plasma catalysis approaches for the generation of clean hydrogen could be transformative in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This comprehensive review highlights the influential contributions in plasma catalysis for hydrogen production, discusses recent advancements, and provides future prospects for researchers aiming to advance the production of clean hydrogen.

The utilization of the dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma process presents a promising avenue for transforming carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) into valuable compounds. In this research, we explore the integration of DBD plasma with a NiO x /γ-Al 2 O 3 catalyst to amplify the efficiency and selectivity of the conversion of CO 2 into carbon monoxide (CO). A series of NiO xloaded on γ-Al 2 O 3 catalysts were synthesized through wet impregnation and employed in the DBD plasma reactor. The synergy between nonthermal plasma and NiO x /γ-Al 2 O 3 resulted in a significant enhancement in CO 2 conversion, particularly demonstrating a notable increase in the energy content of produced carbon monoxide (CO). Enhanced conversion rates and selectivities were observed. Notably, the NiO x /γ-Al 2 O 3 catalyst with a 15 wt % loading exhibited the highest CO 2 conversion of approximately ∼9% at an applied voltage of 22 kV, accompanied by an energy efficiency of 1.13 mmol kJ −1 . This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the impact of plasma catalyst coupling on CO 2 conversion into CO, showcasing the potential of hybrid DBD reactor systems for large-scale CO 2 conversion and contributing to sustainable and value-added fuel production. The superior performance of the hybridized system is attributed to enhanced charge deposition and modified gas-phase chemistry resulting from the integration of the catalyst. Furthermore, we employed BOLSIG+ software to calculate the mean electron energy and electron energy distribution function for different packing conditions, enhancing our understanding of the system's behavior and contributing valuable insights to the overall study.

Metal‐semiconductor heterostructured catalysts have attracted great attention because of their unique interfacial characteristics and superior catalytic performance. Exsolution of nanoparticles is one of the effective and simple ways for in‐situ growth of metal nanoparticles embedded in oxide surfaces and their favorable dispersion and stability. However, both high‐temperature and a reducing atmosphere are required simultaneously in conventional exsolution, which is time‐consuming and costly, and particles often agglomerate during the process. In this work, Ca0.9Ti0.8Ni0.1Fe0.1O3‐δ (CTNF) is exposed to dielectric blocking discharge (DBD) plasma at room temperature to fabricate alloying FeNi3 nanoparticles from CTNF perovskite. FeNi3‐CTNF has outstanding catalytic activity for photothermal reverse water gas shift reaction (RWGS). At 350 °C under full‐spectrum irradiation, the carbon monoxide (CO) yield of FeNi3‐CTNF (10.78 mmol g−1 h−1) is 11 times that of pure CaTiO3(CTO), and the CO selectivity is 98.9%. This superior catalytic activity is attributed to the narrow band gap, photogenerated electron migration to alloy particles, and abundant surface oxygen vacancies. The carbene pathway reaction is also investigated through in‐situ Raman spectroscopy. The present work presents a straightforward method for the exsolution of nanoalloys in metal‐semiconductor heterostructures for photothermal CO2 reduction.
