BendiNewsTest: This new material could efficiently turn greenhouse gases into fuel

Hi,

This page is currently being developed. This page checks Sustainability Blogs and RSS News Feeds for new content and posts it to here each day. The aim is to share information related to sustainability which is relevant to people living in Central Victoria while also providing a channel for international sustainability information. I am just discovering the Internets information sharing potential. I'd like to help other not so tech savvy people learn how to find interesting and new Sustainability info. Please tell me your favorite blogs or news sources and I will add them to the list.

Thanks

This new material could efficiently turn greenhouse gases into fuel

Many scientists have been eager to explore the concept of carbon capture – and especially the concept of transforming greenhouse gases into methanol – for several years. It’s an encouraging concept for sucking carbon emissions out of the atmosphere, slowing global warming and creating handy biofuels in the process, but so far the technologies that would accomplish this transformation haven’t been particularly efficient. But new research by the Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory has developed a copper-based material that could make the process a realistic possibility.
