项目摘要

Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas and so a major environmental pollutant. Energy production produces vast volumes of the gas that is released into the atmosphere. While carbon dioxide is taken up by plants and converted into useful chemical buliding blocks such as sugars, deforestation, increasing urbanisation and an ever increasing demand to energy means that the carbon dioxide cycle is becoming increasingly unbalanced. Furthermore, global oil and gas supplies are decreasing at an alarming rate and these are the feedstocks of the energy and petrochemicals industries.In this project which is located at eight top UK universities, we intend to capture some of the carbon dioxide produced in industrial processes and reconvert it into chemical feedstocks using advanced materials technology and specifically designed catalysts. The aim is to develop a sustainable carbon economy through efficient recycling of waste materials: the C-Cycle. Recent UK government initiatives have placed the emphasis for waste management in the hands of the municipal incinerators (which produce carbon dioxide) with a move away from the environmentally harmful landfill that are used in many regions. Not only will this project directly address UK government policy in waste management, it will take it one step further by producing high value products from the process: as the saying goes where there's muck there's brass! .

二氧化碳是一种温室气体，因此是一种主要的环境污染物。能源生产会产生大量释放到大气中的气体。虽然二氧化碳被植物吸收并转化为糖等有用的化学积木，但森林砍伐、日益城市化和对能源的需求不断增加意味着二氧化碳循环正变得越来越不平衡。此外，全球石油和天然气供应正在以惊人的速度减少，这些都是能源和石化行业的原料。在这个位于英国八所顶尖大学的项目中，我们打算捕获工业过程中产生的一些二氧化碳，并使用先进的材料技术和专门设计的催化剂将其重新转化为化学原料。其目的是通过废旧材料的高效回收来发展可持续的碳经济：C循环。英国政府最近的举措将废物管理的重点放在了市政焚烧炉(产生二氧化碳)手中，放弃了许多地区使用的有害环境的垃圾填埋场。这个项目不仅将直接满足英国政府在废物管理方面的政策，还将更进一步，从这个过程中生产出高价值的产品：俗话说得好，哪里有垃圾，哪里就有黄铜！
