A Cheaper Option to Turn Carbon Dioxide into Synthetic Fuel

Injecting CO2 underground is expensive, and turning it into fuel takes a lot of energy and often involves rare or toxic chemicals.
Researchers at the University of Delaware have taken a different approach, using an inexpensive catalyst that relies on electricity from solar energy to convert carbon dioxide (CO2) into carbon monoxide (CO) that can be used for a range of industrial applications, including liquid fuel.
