Recycling CO2 to fuel a carbon-neutral future

Multifunctional catalysts that transform captured carbon dioxide (CO2) into fuels and other valuable petrochemicals have been developed at KAUST and are set to enable a sustainable greener economy independent of conventional fossil fuels. The catalysts could help reverse the ever-increasing release of CO2 by preventing new emissions without requiring a radical overhaul of existing infrastructure,

CO2-Recycling als Treibstoff für eine kohlenstoffneutrale Zukunft

An der KAUST wurden multifunktionale Katalysatoren entwickelt, die abgeschiedenes Kohlendioxid (CO2) in Kraftstoffe und andere wertvolle Petrochemikalien umwandeln und eine nachhaltige, umweltfreundlichere Wirtschaft unabhängig von herkömmlichen fossilen Brennstoffen ermöglichen sollen. Die Katalysatoren könnten dazu beitragen, die ständig zunehmende Freisetzung von CO2 umzukehren, indem sie neue Emissionen verhindern, ohne eine radikale Überholung der bestehenden Infrastruktur zu

Life cycle assessment of carbon capture

In our efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, carbon capture is mentioned as a possible technology. CO2 can, for example, be captured from large industrial companies and from incineration plants. However, like all other technologies, carbon capture leaves its own imprint on the outside world. DTU Environment has therefore conducted a life cycle analysis, which

Liquid fuels from carbon dioxide: Electrocatalyst converts CO2 into multicarbon products

A new electrocatalyst called a-CuTi@Cu converts carbon dioxide (CO2 ) into liquid fuels. As reported by a team of Chinese researchers in the journal Angewandte Chemie, active copper centered on an amorphous copper/titanium alloy produces ethanol, acetone, and n-butanol with high efficiency. Most of our global energy demands are still being met by burning fossil fuels, which contributes

Deutschland im Kunststoffrecycling und bei Biokunststoffen europaweit mit den meisten Patenten

Deutschland hat in Europa zwar mit die meisten Patente bei Kunststoffrecycling und alternativen Kunststofftechnologien, jedoch mit Mangel an Spezialisierung im Vergleich zu anderen führenden europäischen Staaten. das geht aus einer Studie des Europäischen Patentamts (EPA) hervort. So entfielen auf Europa und die USA zwischen 2010 und 2019 jeweils 30 Prozent bzw. zusammen 60 Prozent der
