Green Urea Synthesis

This project aims to develop a novel method for Green Urea Synthesis utilising a reliable carbon-neutral source of CO2 via the direct air capture (DAC) process. DAC is increasingly attracting attention worldwide as a potentially attainable and scalable CO2 abatement technology. It is critical to integrate DAC with a practical downstream CO2 utilisation technology to create a value proposition for the DAC’s CO2 product and notably reduce the CO2 capture cost. Green urea production proposed in this project would not only use green ammonia attained by renewable sources, but also consume the CO2 product obtained from the DAC process. Integrating the CO2 product of DAC in a downstream green urea process would maximise the sustainability of both technologies.
