Production of ethylene, a prime feedstock for the petrochemical industry, from captured CO2 instead of fossil sources
About
We have developed a ground breaking catalyst able to reduce CO2 into ethylene with by far the best performances ever achieved.
Key Benefits
Ethylene obtained by electrolysis of CO2 (e-ethylene) has a far smaller CO2 footprint than production of ethylene from fossil sources. It is actually an effective CO2 sink, as the final products made of ethylene a very long lived.
Applications
E-ethylene is chemically indistinguishable from fossil ethylene. It can therefore replace, entirely or in any proportion, fossil ethylene as feedstock of all existing chemical plants, without requiring any changes to the processes.
