The earth’s population is growing and so are the demands for energy. While we must reduce GHG emissions, all projections indicate that we’ll continue to rely on fossil fuels for decades to come.
It’s a challenge facing not only developed countries but also emerging economies around the world — and the solution rests with the development of innovative technologies.
One method to reduce GHG emissions while we continue to rely on fossil fuels is carbon capture and storage (CCS). However, this Challenge wants to broaden this technology by looking into a broad array of end uses for the captured carbon. If captured carbon is repurposed and becomes an enabling starting material instead of a waste stream, new business markets will arise and reduce the need for long-term storage.
Specific focus areas for this challenge include, but are not limited to:
Technologies or processes that produce high value goods from GHGs
Biological processes that capture/consume carbon and convert it into a new viable product (e.g., oils from algae)
Technologies that fix captured carbon into solid or readily transportable starting materials
High-value materials with high carbon content that could be produced from GHGs
Ambition with out knowledge is like ship in dry dock. Going nowhere fast!
