(U.S. Department of Energy) On July 8, 2017, the U.S. Department of Energy’s Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) sponsored the Engineered Carbon Reduction Listening Day: Advanced Strategies to Bypass Land Use for the Emerging Bioeconomy in La Jolla, California. This event explored non-photosynthetic carbon dioxide–reduction technologies, including electrocatalytic, thermocatalytic, photocatalytic, and biocatalytic approaches. BETO has summarized stakeholder input from the listening day in a summary report below.
Workshop presentations and breakout sessions focused on challenges and opportunities related to carbon management and analysis, as well as non-photosynthetic and non-biological approaches to carbon reduction and upgrading of chemical intermediates.
In response to the listening day, BETO has launched the new Rewiring Initiative, which seeks to identify how low-cost renewable power can enable a circular new carbon economy.
