Researchers at MIT have identified , quantified, and modeled a major reason for the poor performance of electroreduction processes to convert CO 2 to fuel or other useful chemicals. The research was supported by Shell, through the MIT Energy Initiative. A paper on their work is published in the ACS journal Langmuir. —Soto et al.

The MIT Energy Initiative (MITEI) announced its latest round of seed grants to support early-stage innovative energy projects. These novel materials will unite the well-controlled physical properties of polymers with the promising functional properties of metal-facilitated self-assembly. A total of more than $1.6

The new MIT proces converts furfural into GVL via a series of cascading (domino-like) reactions catalyzed by zeolites with Lewis and Brønsted acid sites. GVL could also be useful as a “green” solvent or a building block for creating renewable polymers from sustainable materials. Credit: Bui et al. Click to enlarge.

Researchers at MIT have devised a simple, soluble metal oxide system to capture and transform CO 2 into useful organic compounds. Ideally we’d like to develop carbon-neutral cycles for renewable energy, to get carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and avoid pollution. —Christopher Cummins.

As a result, there is a critical need to create new pathways for biofuel conversion that reduces carbon waste, prevents the loss of CO 2 emissions, and in turn, maximizes the amount of renewable fuel a conversion process yields.
