Cheap Catalyst Made Out of Sugar Has the Power To Destroy CO2
New catalyst may provide a potential solution for utilizing captured carbon. A new catalyst made from an inexpensive, abundant metal and common table sugar has the power to destroy carbon dioxide (CO2) gas. In a new Northwestern University study, the catalyst successfully converted CO2 into carb
In a new Northwestern University study, the catalyst successfully converted CO 2 into carbon monoxide (CO), an important building block to produce a variety of useful chemicals. An expert in carbon capture technologies, Farha is the Charles E. and Emma H. Morrison Professor of Chemistry at Northwestern’s Weinberg College of Arts and Sciences.
