As part of the parallel workshop on “Biogenic CO₂ Capture and Conversion” at EUBCE 2026, researchers from REUSE and COSEC projects came together to showcase complementary innovations that advance sustainable carbon management, carbon capture and utilisation (CCU), and bioenergy integration across Europe.
In this feature, Dr. Stella Balomenou unpacks how catalyst shape, corrosion science, and sustainability metrics converge to define what scalable carbon utilization could look like, and what still stands between laboratory innovation and industrial impact.
By the time of the 2nd meeting, the consortium has successfully submitted 9 project deliverables, achieved 4 key milestones, and is on track to reach 2 additional milestones by the end of this January. This demonstrates strong momentum across both research and system integration activities.
REUSE combines enzyme-enhanced CO2 capture with electrocatalytic conversion to transform pollutants to valuable products. We sat down with REUSE Project Coordinator Dr. Athanasios Papadopoulos to discuss how this enzyme-driven approach aligns with, and could benefit from, Europe’s emerging industrial decarbonisation playbook.
On the afternoon of 1 July 2025, the Horizon Europe project REUSE—“Enzymatic CO₂ Capture in a Rotating Packed Bed and Electrocatalytic CO₂ Reduction to Useful Products”—held its first Exploitation Workshop at the Clean Energy Solutions (CES) headquarters in Vienna, Austria.
The REUSE project consortium gathered for its 1st General Assembly on 30 June and 1 July 2025, hosted at the energy-efficient headquarters of Clean Energy Solutions CES in Vienna, Austria. This marked a significant milestone, coming 8 months after the project’s launch in October 2024 in Thessaloniki, Greece.
The REUSE Project successfully held its first public webinar on Thursday, 22 May 2025, titled “CCUS In Action: Intensified Capture, Renewable Technologies, Ethics and Regional Challenges”. This event marked REUSE’s first public engagement since the project’s launch under the Horizon Europe Programme in October 2024.
The REUSE project is inviting stakeholders and the wider public to its first Exploitation Workshop on July 1, 2025.
We’re excited to invite you to a online workshop on Thursday, May 22, 2025, hosted by the REUSE – a Horizon Europe Project.
On February 24-25, 2025, the Chemical Process and Energy Resources Institute (CPERI) of the Centre for Research and Technology Hellas (CERTH) hosted the CPERI ERA 2025 Conference in Thessaloniki, Greece.
The Centre for Environmental and Marine Studies (CESAM) at the University of Aveiro has announced the opening of applications for two research grants.
The REUSE project, an ambitious initiative funded by the Horizon Europe research programme, officially launched on October 30-31, 2024, in Thessaloniki, Greece.
