Perovskite Oxides for Thermochemical Conversion of CO2 to CO

Tech ID: 16B190

Competitive Advantages

  •     Sustainable CO2 conversion process
  •     Much lower temperatures for thermo-chemical splitting reactions
  •     Production of CO for other utilizations

Summary

Our researchers have invented a new CO2 splitting process which requires a much lower temperature and utilizes sustainable energy.  In this process, hydrogen is flowed over heated perovskite oxides 
(ABO3) to create oxygen deficient materials.  These oxygen deficient materials are then oxidized so that the CO2  gets converted to CO.  Materials created in this novel process can be used as catalysts and for the creation of hydrocarbon fuel or methanol and methanol derivatives synthesis, making this process not only environmentally beneficial, but profitable as well.
