About

NewCO2Fuels commercializes a technology that uses high-temperature CO2 dissociation to convert CO2 into a variety of fuels. The core technology is a high-temperature-driven CO2 and water dissociation process that produces syngas, a mixture of CO and H2, from which various synthetic fuels and chemicals can be produced. The technology's advantage lies in the overall 40% conversion efficiency of the process, enabling competitive prices without any government incentives for end-product fuels while recycling CO2 emissions. NewCO2Fuels is a subsidiary of GreenEarth Energy Limited. Its technology was conceived by Professor Jacob Karni's laboratory at the Weizmann Institute of Science.
