2010 Sustainable Fuels Conference
Sustainable Fuels from CO2, H2O, and Carbon-Free Energy
Tuesday, May 4, 2010
Hosted by the Lenfest Center and Risø DTU National Laboratory for Sustainable Energy, this conference addressed what technologies can be used to recycle CO2 into carbon-neutral liquid hydrocarbon fuels using renewable or nuclear energy. Speakers from universities and research labs from around the U.S. and from Denmark presented their state-of-the-art research on a wide range of topics including CO2 capture technology, photovoltaics, and splitting CO2/H2O by low- and high-temperature electrolysis, solar-driven thermal processes, and photochemical conversion. The conference was organized by Chris Graves, PhD, who recently completed his dissertation under Klaus Lackner and who worked in collaboration with Risø DTU National Lab in Copenhagen in 2008-9 researching solid oxide electrolysis cells under the direction of Professor Mogens Mogensen.
