  • The Case for Removing CO2 From Air: Connecting Problem to Solution. 9/22/15 New York

    Conference: Climate Week NYC

    As part of Climate Week NYC, National Grid U.S. hosted a panel on the latest in carbon dioxide (CO2) capture technology on Tuesday, September 22nd, at their MetroTech facility in Brooklyn. Sponsored by the Center for Negative Carbon Emissions, the panel discussed the latest innovations that economically remove CO2 directly from the atmosphere, outline selected commercial applications that can use the CO2 that has been captured, and imagine the new business ecosystem that emerges with the…

  • A Sustainable Platform for CO2-to-Chemicals Production

    5th and 6th Biobased Chemicals Commercialization & Partnering

    This presentation will address the progress and potential of a solar-driven platform for the conversion of industrial waste CO2 into chemicals of interest. Unlike processes dependent on agricultural or algal biomass, this process depends only on the availability of sunlight, waste CO2, non-potable water and non-arable land. The platform applies engineered catalysts (cyanobacteria) to directly produce and secrete the molecules of interest as a product of photosynthetic metabolism, with no…

    This presentation will address the progress and potential of a solar-driven platform for the conversion of industrial waste CO2 into chemicals of interest. Unlike processes dependent on agricultural or algal biomass, this process depends only on the availability of sunlight, waste CO2, non-potable water and non-arable land. The platform applies engineered catalysts (cyanobacteria) to directly produce and secrete the molecules of interest as a product of photosynthetic metabolism, with no further processing required. Proof of concept has already been achieved for a number of high-value chemicals, and the platform is currently operating at demonstration scale with the production of ethanol.

    Benefits:
    • Co-opting photosynthesis for industrial gain
    • Progress from lab to field demonstration
    • Global applicability
    • Beneficial impact of upcycling waste CO2
