ILIMITED first-ever Ionic LIquid sorbent Methanol synthesis In order To Enable over 80% yielD

Descrição

CO2 emissions remain a challenge, particularly from decentralised sources like wastewater treatment plants. In this context, the EU-funded ILIMITED project aims to tackle this issue by introducing a groundbreaking method for converting CO2 into methanol, an energy-dense fuel. Utilising ionic liquid sorbents, ILIMITED’s system achieves over 80 % methanol yield (surpassing the current standard of 60 %). Key innovations include a 3D-printed reactor for enhanced fluid dynamics and a catalyst encapsulation technology that prevents fouling and improves stability. This approach enables efficient, low-pressure methanol synthesis from biogas-derived CO2, positioning wastewater treatment plants as potential biorefineries. By 2030, this technology could convert 21 million tonnes of CO2 into 65 TWh of energy, bolstering Europe’s energy storage efforts.
