Researchers Use New Additive to Selectively Convert CO2 to Multicarbon Fuels

A Caltech team of chemists have discovered a new, more efficient method to produce carbon-based fuels from carbon dioxide (CO2). In chemical reactions done in the lab, the team has identified a new additive that helps selectively change CO2 into fuels possessing multiple carbon atoms — a step toward eventually producing renewable liquid fuels that are not derived from coal or oil.
