This project aims to develop an efficient electrochemical method to convert carbon dioxide (CO2) to valuable chemicals. It expects to displace the energy-costly step of its upstream CO2 capture process. The key novelty is the use of flow-through electrodes and optimal solvents to promote CO2 conversion at high rates. Expected outcomes include enhanced efficiency of CO2 sequestration, and new techniques to develop electrodes with well-controlled local reaction environments, which are essential for electrochemical energy conversion and storage. This will benefit Australia's environment and industries such as cement and aluminium manufacturing in managing carbon emissions, and accelerate Australia’s transition to a carbon-neutral economy.

该项目旨在开发一种有效的电化学方法，将二氧化碳 (CO2) 转化为有价值的化学品，有望取代上游二氧化碳捕获过程中的能源消耗步骤，其关键创新之处在于使用流通式电极和最佳溶剂。预期成果包括提高二氧化碳封存效率，以及开发具有良好控制的局部反应环境的电极的新技术，这对于电化学能源转换和储存至关重要。例如水泥和铝制造业管理碳排放，并加速澳大利亚向碳中和经济转型。
