Engineers find a new way to convert carbon dioxide into useful products
MIT chemical engineers devised an efficient way to convert carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide, which can be used to generate useful compounds such as ethanol and other fuels.
If scaled up for industrial use, this process could help to remove carbon dioxide from power plants and other sources, reducing the amount of greenhouse gases that are released into the atmosphere. Former MIT postdoc Gang Fan is the lead author of the paper, which appears in the Journal of the American Chemical Society Au. To make the reaction occur more frequently, which would boost the efficiency of the electrochemical conversion, Furst began working on ways to attach the catalysts to the surface of the electrode.
