Has not super heated steam been ionized in the presence of a catalyst to produce hydrogen?
Wherever there is water present in a high temperature reaction, there is the possibility of there being free oxygen. of course the perfect "re combination of a fuel with oxygen" would be H2 as the fuel. It would seem to me that the wasted hot CO2 leaving the exhaust of an ICE could be readily converted into methane and CO in the presence of hydrogen rich biomass within a plasma reaction chamber, attached to the exhaust manifold.

Just because the bonds may be broken, when the gas is cooled, the bonds reform based on their respective energies, and hydrogen oxygen or hydrogen chlorine bonding is much stronger than the chlorine oxygen bond, so the preferred chlorine containing product would be hydrochloric acid as opposed to chlorine dioxide, and I further defer to the discussion of resonance as additional support. .

At this temperature which is known as plasma temp, all compounds are bound to disintegrate into their primary elements ( example;- CH3OH into C, H and O molecules). The process does not need oxygen.
