PNNL team develops new low-cost method to convert captured CO2 to methane

Green Car Congress

By using a water-lean post-combustion capture solvent, (N-(2-ethoxyethyl)-3-morpholinopropan-1-amine) (2-EEMPA), they achieved a greater than 90% conversion of captured CO 2 to hydrocarbons—mostly methane—in the presence of a heterogenous Ru catalyst under relatively mild reaction conditions (170 °C and 2 pressure). Heldebrant, D.,

MIT team outlines path to low-cost solar-to-fuels devices; the artificial leaf

Green Car Congress

Because a single Si junction has insufficient potential to drive water splitting, it cannot be used for direct solar-to-fuels conversion. Considering recent cost reductions of Si solar cells, this paper offers a path to the construction of low cost solar-to-fuels devices. —Winkler et al.
