Abstract As a critical clean energy resource, methane has garnered substantial attention due to its profound impact on global climate change. The escalating atmospheric methane concentrations, which contribute significantly to climate warming, necessitate the development of efficient methane mitigation strategies. Catalytic oxidation stands out as a promising technology for methane removal, offering dual benefits in environmental protection and energy utilization. However, the presence of water vapor severely compromises catalytic performance through water-induced deactivation, posing a major challenge for practical applications. This review systematically summaries the mechanistic pathways underlying water poisoning in low-temperature methane thermal catalytic oxidation, focusing on competitive adsorption at active sites and water-mediated alteration of reaction pathways. Furthermore, three fundamental catalytic mechanisms:Mars-van-Krevelen (MvK), Langmuir-Hinshelwood (L-H), and Eley-Rideal (E-R) are comparatively analyzed. To address water sensitivity, advanced strategies are critically evaluated, including optimizing active components, using bimetallic and metal oxide catalysts, designing supports, adding promoters, and employing different preparation methods to enhance catalysts’ water resistance. The mechanisms include reducing water molecule adsorption, regulating the dispersion of noble metals, adjusting the physicochemical properties of the support, and enhancing lattice oxygen mobility. This work aims to provide theoretical support for the optimization and practical application of methane thermal catalytic oxidation catalysts.
