Enzymatic CO2 capture in a rotating packed bed and electrocatalytic CO2 reduction to useful products


REUSE proposes a novel concept that combines several cutting-edge technologies:

A Rotating Packed Bed (RPB) absorber using immobilized Carbonic Anhydrase (CA) enzyme and advanced solvents for efficient CO2 capture.

A CO2 reduction (CO2R) cell to transform captured CO2 into valuable products such as carbon monoxide (CO) and formic acid (FA).
