Production of valuable chemicals from gaseous waste

该项目旨在开发一种创新的生物技术，将废气中的二氧化碳（CO2）转化为液体化学品。这将为碳密集型行业实施二氧化碳捕获和利用创造强大的经济驱动力，通过显着增加否则浪费的二氧化碳的价值。使用多学科的方法，该项目将大大推进生物碳回收这一令人兴奋和开发不足的领域的科学知识。该项目的成果将有助于建立一个新的以二氧化碳为基础的生物技术部门，从废气中生产高价值的化学产品，同时也有助于实现减少温室气体排放的国家目标。

This project aims to develop an innovative biotechnology to enable the conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) available in waste gases into liquid chemicals. This will create strong economic drivers for carbon-intensive industries to implement CO2 capture and utilisation, by significantly increasing the value of otherwise wasted CO2. Using a multi-disciplinary approach, this project will substantially advance the scientific knowledge in this exciting and underexploited area of biological carbon recycling. The outcomes of this project will enable the establishment of a new CO2-based biotechnology sector creating high-value chemical products from waste gases, while also support achieving national target of reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.
