US scientists devise method for on-board H2 reformation and carbon capture for cars
|
Did you know Trivia - Research by two scientists from the George W. Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering at Georgia Institute of Technology in the U.S., suggests that it is feasible to capture and store CO2 emissions at the point of generation from widely distributed, small energy-producing sources, such as vehicles and diesel generators, which account for about two thirds of global CO2 emissions.
The Georgia Tech team’s goal is to create a sustainable transportation system that uses a liquid fuel and traps the carbon emission in the vehicle for later processing at a fueling station. The carbon would then be shuttled back to a processing plant where it could be transformed into liquid fuel. Currently, Georgia Tech researchers are developing a fuel processing device to separate the carbon and store it in the vehicle in liquid form.
