Permanently polarized hydroxyapatite for selective electrothermal catalytic conversion of carbon dioxide into ethanol

Conversion of CO2 into valuable chemicals is not only a very challenging topic but also a socially demanding issue. In this work, permanently polarized hydroxyapatite obtained using a thermal stimulated polarization process is proposed as a highly selective catalyst for green production of ethanol starting from CO2 and CH4.

Automated summary

This study proposes the use of permanently polarized hydroxyapatite as a catalyst for the conversion of CO2 into ethanol, presenting a highly selective and green production method.
