Description

As the agency reported it.

Northeastern university, new competitive award under FOA #:DE-FOA-0003234 control# 3234-1552 modular electrochemical ethanol production using intermittent power (ELECTRICITY) the project objectives are: I) to demonstrate conversion of dilute CO2 (400 PPM) to ethanol, using our novel taylor-flow reactors, with min. 60% selectivity (faradaic efficiency) at max. 2V of full cell voltage, being the critical process metrics to yield the fuel cost of $0.03/MJ; II) to develop and integrate new anion exchange membrane formulation, which will allow for a long-term dynamic operation without performance loss; III) scale-up of the complete process to convert renewable ELECTRICITY to liquid fuels (including electrochemical reactor, vacuum membrane separation, complimentary units). We aim to demonstrate min. 200 cumulative hours of intermittent testing, following the ELECTRICITY load given in the FOA FIG 2. IV) develop a technology-to-market strategy for the entire air-to-ethanol process, which can be flexibly deployed at any renewable energy production site (no need to supply/purchase CO2)
