Carbon Dioxide as Feedstock for Chemicals and PolymersMillions of tons of carbon dioxide are produced by the combustion of fossil as well as non-fossil fuels every year. This process is regarded by the scientifi c community as the primary cause of the greenhouse effect and climate change.

As a molecule carbon dioxide is not prone to react under standard conditions and therefore persists in the atmosphere.

Researchers have been addressing the use of carbon dioxide as possible feedstock for chemicals and polymers for decades.

In recent years, the momentum of private and public sector research activity has grown as concerns about the greenhouse effect and climate change spread through society, including the general public. This rising awareness of the problem has ultimately led to heavy investment in both private and public research.

One of the biggest challenges hindering the use of CO2 as a feedstock for the chemical industry is the very low energetic level of carbon dioxide. It means that, despite researchers’ best efforts, a consistent amount of energy will always be necessary, which ultimately leads to greater CO2 emissions.

However…Several advanced research projects and even commercial solutions are pioneering possible pathways to using CO2 as a feedstock for the chemical industry. Participants at our conference on “Carbon dioxide as a feedstock for chemicals and polymers” will gain an invaluable overview of the ways that have already been paved, as well as learning about the solutions German and international leading companies, universities and research centres have envisaged for the short and medium term.

This conference will focus on chemical and polymer production based on CO2 gases (including PPC/PEC production, polyols and polyurethanes), CO2 fermentation, carbonation of glycerol and other chemicals, bioelectrochemical CO2 conversion and others. The presentations will not only give a complete picture for the aforementioned themes, but will also cover topics such as solar fuels (PV & CO2 -> fuels), algae and more.

Call for papersIf you want to contribute with your presentation on carbon dioxide as a feedstock for chemistry and polymers please don‘t hesitate to contact our team.

Call for postersA poster session where to introduce your latest projects and results is available. If you want to present your work in the fi eld of carbon dioxide as a feedstock for chemistry and and polymers please send us an abstract.
