How can we transform large volumes of
CO2 into materials and fuels needed for quality of life and sustainable
development?
The Forum will contribute the latest answers from emerging chemical,
bio-engineering, and process innovations with renewable energies
sources, by leading international academic and industrial actors
involved in these fields.

CO2
CHALLENGE FORUM
Sustainability requires that anthropogenic overproduction of CO2 should be
recycled to useful and harmless products.
Science is therefore confronted to this challenge: transform this energetically
stable molecule into useful and safe products with energy from sustainable
sources.
This requires chemical, bio engineering, and process innovations.
These innovative solutions will be facilitated by frequent interdisciplinary
exchanges at the highest scientific and technological level.
In this context, the Sustainable Development Chair of CPE-Lyon has decided to
launch a regular forum on the subject by bringing together
-
World experts in CO2 utilization,
-
Pioneers in chemical and biochemical science and engineering, and
-
Specialists in sustainable energy sources.
This regular forum will complement the ongoing efforts around the mitigation of
CO2 emission and CO2 capture and storage.
2012 EDITION THEME
Large-volume
CO2 recycling
Sept 27-28, 2012
Lyon, France
This second forum will update the emerging pathways that present
significant potential to use large volumes of CO2. As world experts will
present their research and achievements the Forum will produce a broad
perspective of the state-of-play and future roadmap for these
developments.
