Production of Ethanol from Sequestered Carbon Dioxide

POSTER

Abstract

We built an anoxic environment for methanogens, which convert hydrogen gas and carbon dioxide into methane. We then use the methane along with water and other catalysts to produce ethanol. Our ultimate goal is to create carbon-neutral fuel with the Carbon Sequestration Center in Decatur, Illinois.
