Photoreduction of CO2 into transportable fuel like formic acid (HCOOH) is a great way of dealing with CO2's rising levels in the atmosphere. To aid in this mission, a research team chose an easily ...
Sept. 3 (UPI) --Engineers at Rice University in Texas have developed a catalytic reactor that can convert CO2 into high concentrations of pure formic acid, which can be used as a liquid fuel. The ...
Flowchart of the process (above) for producing formic acid through the conversion of newly developed carbon dioxide (CO2) using Carbon Capture & Utilization (CCU), and pilot-scale process verification ...
The molecular structure of a catalytically active key intermediate is determined in solution by employing 2D IR spectroscopy measuring vibrational cross-angles. The formate intermediate (2) in the ...
As the world seeks solutions to reduce carbon emissions and transition toward a sustainable and cost efficient chemical industry, efficient utilization of CO₂ has become a major challenge. In response ...
The Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO), TNO, GAFT, Waterfuture, University of Twente, and DENS The new eCO2FORM project with a total of five project partners is coordinated by TNO and it aims to ...
Held together by only one carbon atom, formic acid is the simplest carboxylic acid. The market for this chemical is relatively small as well—a fraction of the demand for organic acids such as ...
Insights from experiments designed to push chemical systems far from equilibrium allowed an international group of researchers to discover a new major source of formic acid over the Pacific and Indian ...
