A catalytic two-step: Transforming industrial CO2 into a renewable fuel

Scientists have taken a critical next step in creating a scalable process to remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air and ‘recirculate’ it as a renewable fuel. Chemists now describe their latest breakthrough in creating methanol — a widely used liquid fuel for internal combustion and other engines — from industrial emissions of CO2, a primary greenhouse gas contributing to climate change. The process could have far-reaching applications throughout industry.
