MIT chemical engineers convert carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide more efficiently

March 28, 2024 |

In Massachusetts, MIT chemical engineers have devised an efficient way to convert carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide, a chemical precursor that can be used to generate useful compounds such as ethanol and other fuels. If scaled up for industrial use, this process could help to remove carbon dioxide from power plants and other sources, reducing […]
