The material designed by the research team produces pure ethanol as its sole liquid product, which significantly simplifies its potential industrial application
It is a paradoxical situation. The risks posed by fossil fuels, are more apparent than ever, yet chemical companies are competing harder than ever for access to the dwindling pool of reliable, low-cost fossil sources. Instead, they should speed up their positioning in non-fossil sources to prepare for the transition to renewable carbon
Es ist eine paradoxe Situation: Die Risiken fossiler Rohstoffe treten deutlicher denn je zutage, dennoch konkurrieren Chemieunternehmen mehr als zuvor um den Zugang zu einem schrumpfenden Angebot an verlässlichen und kostengünstigen fossilen Quellen. Stattdessen sollten sie ihre Positionierung bei nicht-fossilen Rohstoffquellen beschleunigen, um sich auf den Übergang zu erneuerbarem Kohlenstoff vorzubereiten
Three evening events, interactive workshops and the exhibition will provide plenty of opportunities, and six innovations will compete for the “Renewable Material of the Year 2026” Innovation Award
