Oxford team directly converts CO2 to jet fuel using iron-based catalysts

Green Car Congress

The catalyst shows a carbon dioxide conversion through hydrogenation to hydrocarbons in the aviation jet fuel range of 38.2%, with a yield of 17.2%, and a selectivity of 47.8%, and with an attendant low carbon monoxide (5.6%) and methane selectivity (10.4%). In brief, the Fe–Mn–K catalyst shows a CO 2 conversion of 38.2%

Researchers develop efficient single-atom Ni catalyst for conversion of CO2 to CO

Green Car Congress

While Ni metal catalyzes the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) exclusively under CO 2 RR conditions, Ni single atomic sites present a high CO selectivity of 95% under an overpotential of 550 mV in water, and an excellent stability over 20 hours’ continuous electrolysis. The current density can be scaled up to more than 50 mA cm?

246th ACS National Meeting symposium on CO2 conversion to fuels

Green Car Congress

Converting CO 2 to usable fuels was the topic of a symposium— CO 2 Conversion: Thermo-, Photo- and Electro-Catalytic —on Sunday at the 246 th National Meeting & Exposition of the American Chemical Society in Indianapolis, Indiana. This suggests that the active site for activation of CO2 is the lanthanum phase of LZ.

UC Santa Barbara team develops catalytic molten metals for direct conversion of methane to hydrogen without forming CO2

Green Car Congress

Bi 0.73 ) achieved 95% methane conversion at 1065°C in a 1.1-meter Under these conditions, the equilibrium conversion is 98%. When the temperature was reduced to 1040 °C, the CH 4 conversion decreased to 86%. Higher conversions, at higher temperatures, were not possible because of Mg evaporation. —Upham et al.

New inexpensive catalyst for conversion of CO2 to CO could help with storage of renewable energy

Green Car Congress

As such, development of Bi-based cathodes for conversion of CO 2 to CO would represent an important development for the fields of CO 2 electrocatalysis and renewable energy conversion. At present, the importance of the Bi 3+ ions to the efficacy of Bi-CMEC is unclear. Carbon Capture and Conversion (CCC) Fuels Power Generation'

Surrey team developing direct-air-capture CO2 to methanol process

Green Car Congress

Synthesizing methanol would constitute a significant advancement, coupling a presently expensive but necessary method of CO 2 capture from the air, with the production of a substance that can bring some revenue to offset costs and further incentivize the scaling up of direct air capture.
