Catalyst Found To Recycle Carbon Dioxide

November 21, 2018 | Leave a Comment

Researchers from Ruhr-Universität Bochum (RUB), Fritz-Haber Institute Berlin and Fraunhofer Umsicht in Oberhausen have found a catalyst for carbon dioxide recycling using the mineral pentlandite. Pentlandite may also be a conceivable alternative to expensive precious metal catalysts. By adding a suitable solvent, the researchers successfully utilized pentlandite to convert carbon dioxide into carbon monoxide, a […]
