Converting excess atmospheric CO₂ into energy-rich chemicals
Lights, catalyst, reaction! Converting CO₂ to formic acid using an alumina-supported, iron-based compound
17-May-2022 -
Photoreduction of CO2 into transportable fuel like formic acid (HCOOH) is a great way of dealing with CO2’s rising levels in the atmosphere. To aid in this mission, a research team from Tokyo Tech chose an easily available iron-based mineral and loaded it onto an alumina support to develop a ...
