1. A method for converting CO2 and a first reduction gas to long-chain hydrocarbons comprising:
contacting a feed mixture comprising CO2 and the first reduction gas with a first catalyst to produce a product mixture comprising long-chain hydrocarbons, wherein the first catalyst comprises
iron and
zinc; and
wherein the product mixture comprises a gaseous product mixture and a liquid product mixture comprising linear hydrocarbons with a carbon number between 6 and 30.
