Their latest product is a system that captures atmospheric carbon dioxide and converts it into syngas—a vital factor for the production of many commonly used chemicals and pharmaceuticals. The system is a solar-powered flow reactor that uses custom-made filters to capture CO2 from the air at night.
NASA has developed a new technology that can convert the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (C02) into fuel by using solar-powered, thin-film devices. Metal oxide thin films are fabricated to produce a photoelectrochemical cell that is powered by solar energy.
Researchers have developed a reactor that pulls carbon dioxide directly from the air and converts it into sustainable fuel, using sunlight as the power source.

China has put a supercritical CO₂ power generator into operation. That does not mean it will deliver durable, low cost electricity over time.
CNNC says that the system uses carbon dioxide in place of steam to transfer heat. It has been placed in a steel production plant in the Guizhou province of China. The power generator has
A team of researchers at the University of Cambridge has developed a groundbreaking solar reactor that captures carbon dioxide from the air and converts it into valuable fuels and chemicals.
Similar to how plants require only sunlight as the energy source for converting carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and sugar, their new reactor device is also solely solar-powered.
