Japanse katalysator zet CO₂ efficiënt om in methanol met minimale bijproducten

Researchers from Tohoku University and IIT Indore have created a copper nanocluster catalyst that converts CO₂ into methanol while keeping unwanted byproducts below 11 percent. The breakthrough uses controlled copper atoms to optimize an electrochemical reaction, enabling efficient transformation of carbon dioxide into useful fuels under mild conditions.
