Method and catalyst for producing carbon product

Abstract

The application relates to a method for producing at least a carbon product by a chemical reaction with a catalyst in a reactor, wherein a reactant is arranged into contact with the catalyst comprising metal for performing the chemical reaction to form spherical carbon particles comprising an allotrope of carbon, at least a portion of the spherical carbon particles is impregnated with metal particles to form metal impregnated carbon catalyst particles, and the chemical reaction is performed in the presence of the metal impregnated carbon catalyst particles in the reactor to form the carbon product comprising spherical carbon particles having an allotrope of carbon. Further, the application relates to a catalyst.
