Explore the concept of Power-to-X and its potential to revolutionize energy systems in this 48-minute conference talk. Delve into the general principles of Power-to-X technologies and their applications in various sectors, including transport, heat, and chemical industry. Focus on Carbon Capture and Utilization (CCU) as a means to create a closed carbon cycle, recycling CO2 into fuels and base chemicals using renewable energy. Examine the technology, chemistry, possibilities, and challenges associated with CCU. Learn about the fluctuating nature of renewable energy sources and how Power-to-X can address overcapacity issues. Discover the global implications of energy redistribution and the potential for producing energy-intensive products in areas with high renewable electricity generation potential. Gain insights into different Power-to-X approaches, including power-to-ammonia, power-to-chemicals, and power-to-fuel. Understand the technical working principles and chemistry behind CCU concepts, such as water electrolysis coupled with catalytic CO2 reduction and direct electrocatalytic CO2 reduction. Explore the future possibilities and challenges of implementing sustainable process cycles in various industries.
