Carbon dioxide is a byproduct of numerous industrial processes, from cement and steel production to chemical manufacturing and power generation. Instead of this byproduct being released as a waste emissions, it capture be captured and harnessed for other uses. Effective carbon utilization technologies can help industries operate more efficiently and provide pathways for sectors that are difficult to fully electrify.

RASEI researchers are developing new approaches to carbon utilization across multiple technologies. Work includes bio-catalytic systems that harness natural organisms' carbon-processing capabilities, electrocatalytic methods that use electricity to drive carbon utilization reactions, and chemical recycling of hydrocarbons in plastics.Ìý

By working across disciplines and scales, RASEI teams aim to develop carbon utilization technologies that are energy-efficient, cost-effective, and practical for real-world deployment in industrial settings.
