Effective dual-functional materials (DFMs), through the combination of CO2 sorbents and catalysts, can not only capture CO2 but also convert it into higher-value chemicals, such as CH4 or CO, under isothermal conditions within a single reactor are highly desirable for ICCU processes. In this study, we investigate the mechanism of ICCU over 10 %NiCaO by the time-resolved operando XAS/DRIFTS/MS and the influence of a reduction pretreatment on the process and the products formed. During the 1st stage of the ICCU process (carbon capture), CaO adsorbs CO2 resulting in bicarbonate, carbonate, and formate species formation. At the same time, the Ni catalytic active species are oxidized by CO2, leading to the formation of NiO and CO. However, pre-treating the same DFM under hydrogen, during heating to operating temperature, resulted in a switch to CH4 production, suggesting the presence of high levels of surface adsorbed H2. During the 2nd stage of ICCU (CO2 conversion), the NiO generated during capture is reduced by H2 to metallic Ni, which facilitates the reduction of bicarbonates, carbonates, and formats, via H2 dissociation, to produce and liberate gaseous CO. Thus, both adsorption and catalytic sites are regenerated for the subsequent ICCU cycle.	Oct 2022
