Brief description Production of valuable chemicals from gaseous waste. This project aims to develop an innovative biotechnology to enable the conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) available in waste gases into liquid chemicals. This will create strong economic drivers for carbon-intensive industries to implement CO2 capture and utilisation, by significantly increasing the value of otherwise wasted CO2. Using a multi-disciplinary approach, this project will substantially advance the scientific knowledge in this exciting and underexploited area of biological carbon recycling. The outcomes of this project will enable the establishment of a new CO2-based biotechnology sector creating high-value chemical products from waste gases, while also support achieving national target of reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.
