An Israeli-Australian venture will use solar technology developed at Israel’s Weizmann Institute of Science to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from the burning of brown coal. The venture has been recently launched in Israel by NewCO2Fuels Ltd., a subsidiary of the Australian company Greenearth Energy Ltd.,

Israel-based NewCO2Fuels (NCF), a subsidiary of GreenEarth Energy Limited in Australia, reported completion of stage 1 testing of its proof-of-concept system for the conversion of CO 2 into fuels using solar energy. Simultaneously, the same device can dissociate water (H 2 O) to hydrogen (H 2 ) and oxygen (O 2 ).

The basic idea behind the synthesis is the combination of two well-known reactions: the Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis (FTS) and the Reverse Water-Gas Shift (RWGS). The BGU crude oil process produces hydrogen from water, which is mixed with carbon dioxide captured from external sources and synthetic gas (syngas). — BGU’s Prof.

So far Israel, Denmark, Australia , Hawaii and California’s Bay Area have plans to implement the Better Place model. In effect therefore, the more energy convertion stages there are the less efficient the process is. Battery recharging would typically take two to four hours, he said. The closest to that source is solar.
