In Illinois, the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations has committed up to $200 million in federal funding and authorized the initiation of Phase 1 of Technip Energies and LanzaTech’s Project SECURE. The project aims to provide an integrated commercial process which takes captured carbon dioxide from ethylene production and recycles it […]
In Germany, work is being done on appropriate solutions in the project “H2-Reallabor Burghausen – ChemDelta Bavaria”. Since July 2024, Fraunhofer UMSICHT has been supporting the subproject “CO2 Direct Electrolysis to Green Ethylene (CODE)”, which is based there. Specifically, the scientists are developing a novel reactor for the efficient conversion of carbon dioxide to ethylene. […]
In Ohio, engineers at the University of Cincinnati created a more efficient way of converting carbon dioxide into valuable products while simultaneously addressing climate change. The team found that a modified copper catalyst improves the electrochemical conversion of carbon dioxide into ethylene, the key ingredient in plastic and a myriad of other uses. Ethylene has […]
