Plasmas as Flagship Technology for Decarbonization
from CoffeeBreakDown
In this episode, Professor Vasco Guerra (IST Lisbon, Portugal) gives an overview of the different plasma technologies for conversion of carbon dioxide and nitrogen into chemicals and fuels and he explains the role of plasmas for a decarbonized economy. Plasmas have been studied since decades. The game changer is the drop in price of renewable electricity that makes this technology attractive for future energy infrastructures. New applications of plasmas are discussed for the conversion of carbon dioxide into liquid fuels for aviation and road transportation, and the fixation of nitrogen for sustainable fertilizers production in agriculture. Additionally, don't miss Professor Guerra's suggestions to Ph.D. students and young researchers! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
