A method of reducing a gaseous carbon oxide includes reacting a carbon oxide with a gaseous reducing agent in the presence of an intermetallic or carbide catalyst. The reaction proceeds under conditions adapted to produce solid carbon of various allotropes and morphologies, the selective formation of which can be controlled by means of controlling reaction gas composition and reaction conditions including temperature and pressure. A method for utilizing an intermetallic or carbide catalyst in a reactor includes placing the catalyst in a suitable reactor and flowing reaction gases comprising a carbon oxide with at least one gaseous reducing agent through the reactor where, in the presence of the catalyst, at least a portion of the carbon in the carbon oxide is converted to solid carbon and a tail gas mixture containing water vapor.

A method includes the following steps: a first step: the material containing heteroatom and graphite powder are mixed for a preset time by grinding, and the molar ratio of heteroatom to carbon atom is 1%-10%, then the heteroatom precursors are obtained; a second contact step: the heteroatom precursor is filled into a graphite rod with holes and compacted, then the graphite rod is dried for a preset time to obtain a plasma anode and using a DC arc plasma device to prepare the graphite anode into heteroatom-doped CNHs; a third contact step: the heteroatom-doped CNHs are dispersed in a reducing solution, a platinum salt is added to stir evenly, the reduction reaction is carried out by heating and stirring, and after centrifugation, washing and drying, a catalyst with platinum loading is obtained.
