CO2 utilisation: a transformation potential into products of industrial interest

Date: 28 January 2025.

The European Union has set a plan to eliminate net greenhouse gas emissions, mainly caused by carbon dioxide, by 2050, in order to achieve a climate-neutral society. These actions will generate significant reserves of CO2 that can be reused through carbon capture and use, as a raw material for obtaining carbon-containing products. However, CO2 utilization technologies still face challenges such as the development of more efficient and economically viable conversion and purification technologies, as well as the stability and regeneration of the catalysts and adsorbents used in these processes. In this webinar, these technologies and their potential for CO₂ transformation were explored. The webinar aroused great interest, exceeding five hundred registrations and took place in English.
