VTT: Materials and chemicals the first commodities to be commercialized by carbon reuse economy

To mitigate climate change, giving up the use of fossil carbon is of utmost importance. One of the approaches is the reuse of carbon dioxide. With the help of emission-free electricity, almost all organic chemicals and polymers, such as plastics, can be produced from carbon dioxide. There is considerable potential in their commercialisation.”By reusing carbon dioxide, we could reduce our global reliance on fossil hydrocarbons without intensifying climate change. This enables a climate-neutral approach to producing fuels, chemicals, materials and food, which is also increasingly valued by
