Capturing CO\u2082 at room temperature using Moisture swing adsorption method<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The technology for directly capturing CO\u2082 in the atmosphere is called \"DAC,\" are developed in many research institutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Capture unit in CRERC is studying  \"moisture swing adsorption method for DAC\". The adsorption and desorption of CO\u2082 on the adsorbents are controlled by humidity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the absorbents is dry, CO\u2082 is adsorbed, and when the adsorbent is moistened with water, CO\u2082 <\/sub>is desorbed. The greatest advantage of this method is that can be performed at room temperature, dramatically reducing the energy required for CO\u2082 <\/sub>adsorption and desorption compared to existing methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, we are studying the adsorbents that can capture more CO\u2082 and faster using quantum chemical calculations and molecular dynamics methods. We are also conducting study on the chemical concentration and efficient capture of CO\u2082 emitted from factories and other sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Development of catalyst for methanol<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By synthesizing captured CO\u2082 as new e-fuel, CO\u2082 emissions can be reduced while using existing infrastructure without modification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The CRERC Synthesis unit is studying to find the optimal catalyst composition for the highly efficient and selective synthesis from CO\u2082. Moreover, it is being developed to achieve higher performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this study, the collaboration of \"experiments\" by experts in synthetic organic chemistry and polymer chemistry, and \"computational science\" by experts in physical chemistry proved to be highly effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the future, we will continue to develop new catalysts by combining the fields of computational science and information science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only institution that study fuels and combustion in view of chemistry<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The CRERC Utilization unit pursues an efficient use of the synthesized fuel. Due to energy density issues, converting energy sources into electricity and gas fuel is difficult in the aviation, marine, heavy transportation and heat utilization industries. Particularly in these fields, there are high expectations for e-fuels to be liquid fuels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CRERC's ability to promote research and technology development from fuel synthesis to utilization is of great significance in this regard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CRERC has one of the only four spark ignited engines in Japan capable of mixing and burning multiple types of gases and measuring their efficiency, providing a world-class research environment where we can conduct experiments from basic to applied on fuel utilization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CRERC promotes basic research through international seminars and events in collaboration with its members, researchers, institutions and companies worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will also be responsible for the creation of various ideas through education for students and the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

we will focus on developing of human resources who can be immediately effective and creating an environment in which research and technological development can continue over the long term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
