Eco Tech: New Technology Can Yield Alternative Fuel From Atmospheric CO2 - Ecofriend

The solar-based system works in the presence of a photocatalyst – titanium dioxide in this case. Titanium dioxide or titania in the form of titania nanotubes incorporated with nitrogen reacts with light to convert CO2 into hydrocarbons. This conversion rate of this system is 20 times higher than all previous systems ever to be tested. While testing the system researchers were able to convert CO2 into methane, ethane, propane, butane, pentane and hexane along with other materials in small concentrations. If the system is brought into commercial use, it could not only remove huge amounts of CO2 from the atmosphere, but could also result in a new category of hydrocarbon fuels.
