Title
"Steps towards a Trillion Dollar CO2-Products Market"
Abstract
Carbon dioxide capture and utilization is an attractive opportunity to help address climate change effects and to provide continued access to essential carbon-based products. that are currently made from petroleum. This talk will present products that can be produced from CO2 and key challenges that include technical, societal, political, and economic aspects. Some emphasis is given on the need for consistent and transparent life cycle assessment and techno-economic assessment to provide guidance for decision makers and to ensure best outcomes for the environment and business. A trillion dollar market can be created for CO2-products over the next few decades and example for projected growth rates will be discussed.
