New nickel-gallium catalyst could lead to low-cost, clean production of methanol; small-scale, low-pressure devices

Green Car Congress

Scientists from Stanford University, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and the Technical University of Denmark have identified a new nickel-gallium catalyst that converts hydrogen and carbon dioxide into methanol at ambient pressure and with fewer side-products than the conventional catalyst.

DOE to award up to $6.7M to projects to convert captured CO2 to useful products, including fuels

Green Car Congress

Research has shown that CO 2 can be converted to a variety of commodities, but because of the low energy state of CO 2 , the production costs would be prohibitive in many cases. However, they may be considered in order to establish a baseline for making comparisons with results from coal-derived flue gas.

Vitesco Technologies prepares series application of its High Voltage Box – ET Auto

Baua Electric

The modular system makes charging, converting and distributing electricity in electric vehicles cheaper by integrating several functions in one unit, depending on the design. On a day-to-day level, charging, energy conversion and power distribution are just as relevant for a driver’s satisfaction with a vehicle as driving itself is.
