Focus on Spanish immigration and stay updated on Spain's technological developments: Recently, the Institute of Chemical Research of Catalonia (ICIQ) in Spain announced a new technology that successfully converts carbon dioxide into methanol, a chemical industry fuel, in just a single step. If implemented for industrial use, this technology could not only alleviate the global greenhouse effect but also potentially resolve the international energy crisis.
The Institute of Chemical Research of Catalonia published this latest research finding in the authoritative American journal, Journal of Catalysis. According to reports, the institute's research team performed catalytic hydrogenation of carbon dioxide under high-pressure conditions, successfully converting 95% of the carbon dioxide into methanol in a single step. Methanol is an important fuel in the chemical industry and can be directly converted into electrical energy. Currently, the Institute of Chemical Research of Catalonia has applied for a patent for this technology.
Analysts suggest that this latest technology discovered by Spanish scientists will play a key role in curbing global climate change and may become a primary method for controlling and reducing carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere. The resulting methanol, as a source of electrical power, will make a significant contribution to resolving the energy crisis.
Furthermore, the World Meteorological Organization noted in its latest report that global carbon dioxide emissions are still rising and have once again hit a record high. As the greenhouse effect becomes increasingly severe, global climate change is expected to intensify over the coming years, leading to more extreme weather events.
