Abstract

To provide a processing method that can efficiently decompose oils and fats in a short time and enable their effective utilization, and to provide a mixture that can be suitably used for the production of hydrogen gas and carbon nanotubes. [Solution] The present invention is characterized by selectively heating and activating the iron-based catalyst by irradiating a mixture containing an oil-based raw material and an iron-based catalyst with microwaves, and decomposing the oil-based raw material in the presence of the iron-based catalyst to produce hydrogen gas and carbon nanotubes. The iron-based catalyst is FeAlO x It is preferable that the raw material contains nanoparticles represented by [formula]. It is preferable that the raw material contains oxidized oil.
