Chemistry and Technology of Fuels and Oils Aims and scope

    We’re sorry, something doesn't seem to be working properly.

    Please try refreshing the page. If that doesn't work, please contact support so we can address the problem.

Chemical ways of utilising carbon dioxide in the oil and chemical industries to reduce CO2 emissions and the carbon footprint of the products at various stages of their life, both those tested and used on an industrial scale and those currently under development and pilot testing, are discussed. Authors discuss the prospects for development of appropriate technologies aimed at decarbonization and sustainable development, and the critical factors for deciding on the direction for the production of “green” products using CO2.
