Description

Catalytic upcycling of carbon dioxide to synthetic fuel. The goal of this project is to develop nanostructured catalysts and a catalytic process for converting carbon dioxide (CO2) into synthetic methane, a green fuel produced through selective hydrogenation with green hydrogen. This strategy targets the production of green synthetic methane while utilizing Australia's current liquefied natural gas infrastructure and transportation network to efficiently deliver green fuels to domestic and global markets. Success in this project could revolutionize green fuel manufacturing and significantly contribute to advancing Australia's carbon neutrality objectives. Ultimately, this project holds the potential to drive a significant transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources across the nation.. Scheme: Linkage Projects. Field: 4016 - Materials Engineering. Lead: Prof Dr Jun Huang
