HSE Scientists Discover Method to Convert CO₂ into Fuel Without Expensive Reagents

HSE Scientists Discover Method to Convert CO₂ into Fuel Without Expensive Reagents
Researchers at HSE MIEM, in collaboration with Chinese scientists, have developed a catalyst that efficiently converts CO₂ into formic acid. Thanks to carbon coating, it remains stable in acidic environments and functions with minimal potassium, contrary to previous beliefs that high concentrations were necessary. This could lower the cost of CO₂ processing and simplify its industrial application—eg in producing fuel for environmentally friendly transportation. The study has been published in Nature Communications.
