A metabolic engineering research group has developed a strategy to grow an E. coli strain to higher cell density solely on CO2 and formic acid. Formic acid is a one carbon carboxylic acid, and can be ...

For a carbon-neutral bioeconomy, processes are needed that can efficiently capture CO 2 and convert it into valuable products. Formic acid, or more specifically its salt, formate, is considered a ...

Flowchart of the process (above) for producing formic acid through the conversion of newly developed carbon dioxide (CO2) using Carbon Capture & Utilization (CCU), and pilot-scale process verification ...
