Medium temperature electrolysis for low-cost carbon dioxide utilization

二氧化碳是一种臭名昭著的温室气体。它的捕获以及随后的储存或利用，不仅是研究人员的主要关注点，也是试图履行《巴黎气候变化协定》（Paris Agreement）义务的政府以及管理其法律和社会责任的行业的主要关注点。该项目旨在开发商业上可行的中温电解器，利用可再生能源的电力将二氧化碳转化为增值化学品。将开发新的设计原则，以产生具有长期稳定性的高活性和选择性催化剂。这些电解槽将与碳捕获技术集成，以高能效直接利用捕获的二氧化碳。

Carbon dioxide is a notorious greenhouse gas. Its capture, and subsequent storage or utilization, is a major focus not only for researchers, but also for governments trying to meet their obligations of the Paris Agreement on climate change and for industries managing their legal and social responsibilities. This project aims to develop commercially viable medium temperature electrolysers to convert carbon dioxide into value added chemicals using electricity from renewable sources. New design principles will be developed to generate highly active and selective catalysts with long-term stability. These electrolyzers will be integrated with carbon capture technologies to directly utilize captured carbon dioxide with high energy efficiency.
