FROM POLLUTION TO ENERGY
Greenhouse Emissions
THE MAIN PROBLEM
There are industries that are difficult to de-electrify, and therefore to decarbonize. The industrial and energy sectors contribute to 33.5% of global emissions. Now, we are faced with the challenge of modifying the traditional production chain towards a new model that involves the reduction of polluting emissions towards a more sustainable circular economy.
OUR TECHNOLOGY
In this 4th Industrial Revolution, waste processing will be the next gold mines.
Carbon Power Mexico has developed a system that captures and transforms pollutant emissions of a variety of industries into fuels, consumer goods, and other materials.

OUR SOLUTION
We seek to improve environmental conditions and air quality by developing and scaling up carbon capture and utilization technology in order to curb global warming.
We use emissions of polluting gases with a high concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) to convert them into ethanol and ethylene, substances that are used to generate electricity as fuel, and plastics precursors.

PhD PEDRO ROQUERO
Research Associate
BSc in Chemical Engineering from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM)
PhD on Process Engineering from the National Polytechnic Institute of Toulouse
-
PhD Roquero's Lab is a place where multidisciplinary research is promoted, being the main goal for the training of young students who will, in the future, be specialists in electrochemical engineering, electrocatalysis, and fuel cells
-
The progress of Pedro's team is significant, in 2000 they were the first team to use catalysts for methanol cells in Mexico, they also synthesized catalysts and designed methods to characterize and evaluate them
