A research team, led by the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory in collaboration with Northern Illinois University, has discovered a new electrocatalyst that converts carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) and water into ethanol with very high energy efficiency, high selectivity for the desired final product and low cost.

“The process resulting from our catalyst would contribute to the circular carbon economy, which entails the reuse of carbon dioxide.”
