REFORM - Renewable hydrogen production and storage through biotechnological interconversion of carbon dioxide and formic acid
The aim is to develop a new concept that uses microorganisms and enzymes to store/release hydrogen in/from formic acid made from CO2.
- Can CO2 hydrogen gasification to formic acid via bioelectrosynthesis achieve high yield and rate?
- Does carbanhydrase have synergistic action with formate dehydrogenase?
- Can competitive hydrogen production rates be achieved from dehydrogenation of formic acid catalyzed by bacteria?
- Can the product be effectively isolated?
- What is the techno-economic performance of the process?
