CASE is headed by Professor Jens K. Nørskov from DTU Physics. Electrolytic cells can turn CO2 into a useful fuel Making the step from electricity to chemical energy requires an electrolytic process.

Here it must be possible to store surplus energy locally using, for example, local SPEC electrolytic cells. The foundation for this technology is being developed by researchers in Denmark.

The membrane-based technique offers many advantages. The catalyst coated membrane itself is very thin, which makes the electrolytic cell itself small and more versatile, and the absence of a ...

Specifically, it’s what’s known as an electrolytic cell, which uses electricity—rather than carbon—to process raw iron ore. If the technology works at scale as cheaply as the founders hope ...
