One of the chemicals that is being obtained in the Photo2Fuel project, apart from biomethane, is acetic acid. The recovery of this compound is being studied by the Spanish research institution TECNALIA. In this article we will discover more about the process and the team behind it.
Explore the forefront of sustainable technology developed in Photo2Fuel.
In the study "Photobiocatalytic CO2 Reduction into CO by Organic Nanoparticle-Carbon Monoxide Dehydrogenase Assemblies: Surfactant Matters", published as a preprint by the Tian Laboratory of the University of Uppsala, biohybrid assemblies are investigated to study their capability of interaction with all components in the photocatalytic system.
The field of renewable energies and sustainability is moving into many different directions, always looking for the most innovative solutions to reach the goal of lowering emissions by 2030. In Photo2Fuel, we are working to produce sustainable biofuels using CO2 and sunlight. Read more here.
The team of researchers involved in the Photo2Fuel project is advancing its research in different fields. From polymer dots photosensitisers, bacteria used as feedstock to the recovery of methane and acetic acid, the team is working effortlessly to achieve the expected impact by the end of the project.
