Info: Preliminary program - Conference on CO2-based Fuels and Chemicals 2023

19-20 April 2023 – hybrid event (on site and online), Cologne, Germany

 

Meet leading international experts at one of the world’s premier and most prominent conferences on Carbon Capture and Utilisation (CCU) and Power-to-X.

Finally! The preliminary program for the “Conference on CO2-based Fuels and Chemicals 2023” is online, take a look at https://co2-chemistry.eu/program

We are happy to announce our first 21 speakers from 11 different countries. These experts from leading companies and research institutes provide diverse backgrounds and will present their innovative technologies and strategies. These presentations will cover the entire supply and value chain for Carbon Capture and Carbon Utilisation (Power-to-X) solutions, such as capture and use of renewable carbon for a variety of fuels and products, as well as the political framework and future innovations and strategy.
