INTEGRATED CARBON DIOXIDE REMOVAL AND VALORIZATION

The world needs outstanding technology and innovative scientific breakthroughs to reach the goal of extracting ca. ten gigatons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere each year by 2050. Direct air capture (DAC) technology is suitable for offsetting previously over-looked emissions.

One cannot overestimate the potential impact of a functional CO2 DAC technology – not only can it help solve environmental problems, but DAC technology can also empower the industry to utilize the captured CO2.

The industrial conversion of CO2 into value-added products will cause a slow but steady switch from fossil fuels, turning CO2 from our worst enemy to our best friend.

Within the frames of this project, RedoxNRG will develop new electrosorbent materials for the direct air electrocapture of CO2.

To advance DAC technology, we suggest augmenting electrocapture with a new class of redox-active and electrically conductive metal-organic materials (ecoMOMs).
