Solar-powered systems convert CO₂ into methanol
In India, Scienmag reports a new review in Ionics examines photoelectrochemical (PEC) systems that use sunlight to convert captured carbon dioxide into liquid methanol, a fuel and chemical feedstock. Researchers highlight recent advances in engineered semiconductor photocathodes, copper-based catalysts and tandem architectures, with some systems achieving methanol Faradaic efficiencies of roughly 90–95%. Bias-free designs can […]
