SOLAR-JET concentrated thermochemical reactor. The EU-funded SOLAR-JET project has demonstrated the production of aviation kerosene from concentrated sunlight, CO 2 captured from air, and water. The solar reactor consists of a cavity-receiver containing a porous monolithic ceria cylinder. Click to enlarge.

Panasonic has developed an artificial photosynthesis system using a gallium nitride photoelectrode and a metal catalyst which uses sunlight to convert CO 2 mainly to formic acid (an important intermediate in chemical synthesis) at an efficiency (solar energy to chemical energy) of 0.2%—a —a comparable level to that of plants.

At 3%, the 2011 increase in global CO 2 emissions is above the past decade’s average annual increase of 2.7%. combined, where emissions increased by 9% and 6% respectively in 2011. The United States remain one of the largest emitters of CO2, with 17.3 Weak economic conditions, a mild winter, and energy. the United States (16%).

reported a major step forward in its development of renewable fuels, achieving direct microbial conversion of carbon dioxide into hydrocarbons via engineered organisms, powered by solar energy. Production was achieved at lab scale, with pilot development slated for early 2011. Joule Biotechnologies, Inc. Earlier post.)

In a 2011 study, a team from MAN Truck & Bus noted that: CO 2 can be recycled into methanol by reaction with electrolysis hydrogen. They can be generated from fossil natural gas or bio-gas or through a power-to-liquids process that uses renewable sources such as solar or wind power together with CO 2 captured from the air.

high overpotentials are needed to convert CO 2 because the first step in CO 2 conversion is the formation of a. “CO The ionic liquid electrolyte stabilizes the intermediates in the reaction so that less electricity is needed to complete the conversion. Twenty years ago, Bockris and co-workers proposed that. intermediate. Thorson, W.
