Research Abstract	Fundamental research on mass production of carbon-nano fiber using a novel nano-catalyst and nano-reactor was conducted. Design of a composite catalyst which was composed of Ni-Fe layered double hydroxide supported by Cu particle was conducted for the purpose of using it in fluidized bed reactor. A rotating fluidized bed reactor which could be used in elevated temperature was developed and synthetic of carbon nano-fiber was also conducted. It was found that carbon nano-fiber with high purity could be produced by our developed system.
