In CO fermentation, explained LanzaTech Communications Director Freya Burton, CO can serve as the carbon and the energy source whereas CO 2 can serve only as the carbon source. Should the lab and pilot work prove successful and scalable, they will place a demo plant in Malaysia, Burton said. Carbon Dioxide as a Feedstock.

students a simple question: “What is the most efficient and practical way possible to convert chemical-bond energy into useful work?” The efficient, clean, flameless reaction at the heart of the Mainspring generator works with nearly any fuel, including carbon-free ammonia as shown here. Here’s how that would work.
