Description

This poster will showcase a newly started project, CO2Fokus (www.CO2Fokus.eu), that brings together six research organisations and six industrial partners. The project is developing cutting- edge technology able to convert industrial CO2 into DME, a valuable gas extensively used in the chemical and energy sectors providing an alternative to fossil fuel derived feedstock.

To this end, innovative 3D printed multichannel catalytic reactors and solid oxide electrolyser cells are being developed and will be tested in an industrial environment, with a CO2 point source at end-user facilities to evaluate its integration and operation under process relevant conditions.

The use of DME as a fuel is particularly important, since it can fulfill the ever-increasing demand for alternative, carbon-neutral, environmentally-friendly fuels and chemical and energy carriers, reducing the dependence on non-renewable sources.

The poster was presented at the Heterogeneous Catalysts for Sustainable Industry Workshop, held in London on 25th November 2019
