ConsenCUS (site 2)

  • Project Description

    With climate change putting people worldwide in danger and nations taking steps to decrease its effects, new innovations regarding green solutions are more welcome than ever. The EU-funded ConsenCUS project aims to assist in this goal by providing an industrial plan for a net-zero carbon reality. To this aim it will utilise 3 electricity-based innovations: carbon capture based on alkali absorption, methods for conversion of CO2 to formate and formic acids for market uses and finally a safe cyclic loading system of CO2 into salt formations and aquifers for storage purposes. These innovations should greatly benefit the EU in reaching its net-zero carbon goal.
