Estonian startup UP Catalyst secures €2.09M; sustainable carbon nanomaterials and graphite from CO2

Green Car Congress

UP Catalyst uses a molten salt carbon capture and electrochemical transformation method to reprocess the CO 2. The entire process involves three steps: CO 2 dissolves in molten salt (capture); Electrochemical reactions take place on the cathode and anode; and. separation of products and collection.

In the paper in Nature they showed that intermediate-temperature (200 to 350 ˚C) molten salts containing caesium or potassium cations enable carbonate ions (CO 3 2– ) to deprotonate very weakly acidic C–H bonds, generating carbon-centered nucleophiles that react with CO 2 to form carboxylates.
