Los Angeles CA (SPX) Jun 17, 2025 A research team at Rice University has developed a simple yet effective method to dramatically extend the life of electrochemical systems that convert carbon dioxide into fuels and industrial chemicals. The approach relies on passing CO2 gas through an acid bubbler before it enters the reactor, a modification that prevents damaging salt buildup inside the device. Published in Science, the| Bio Fuel News - Liquid Fuels For The 21st Century
Los Angeles CA (SPX) Jun 02, 2025 The quest to transform carbon dioxide (CO2), a major greenhouse gas, into sustainable fuels through hydrogenation is gaining momentum. This process can produce methanol, a versatile compound used in fuels, plastics, and other chemicals. It can also yield methane for natural gas pipelines and longer-chain hydrocarbons suitable for gasoline and aviation fuel, enabling the creation of sustainable e| Bio Fuel News - Liquid Fuels For The 21st Century
