Konferenz und Ausstellung

The CO2-based Fuels and Chemicals Conference has successfully established itself as an international and unique meeting and networking ground for the entire Carbon Capture and Utilisation (CCU) and Power-to-X industry and its customers. The upcoming 13th edition of the conference will take place on 29–30 April 2025, Cologne, Germany as a hybrid event. Organiser nova-Institute expects over 250 leading international experts in the field of CCU, green hydrogen production and Power-to-X. Once more the event will showcase the latest innovations and most important developments in the fast-growing field of Carbon Capture and Utilisation with plenty of opportunities to network.With a current capacity of over 1.3 million tons for CO2-based products and a steadily growing demand, smart carbon capture and utilization (CCU) technologies are helping to establish CO2 as a renewable carbon feedstock. Innovative technologies and materials are crucial to meet the increasing demand for fossil-free carbon, e.g. from CO2 or biomass, especially in the chemical and fuel sectors.

New and leading players will showcase new and improved applications based on the use of CO2 as a feedstock. The main topics of the conference include innovation, strategy and policy in CCU, carbon capture technologies, green hydrogen production, power-to-X for fuels (transport and aviation), CO2-based chemicals, materials and polymers, mineralization and advanced technologies, research for CCU and artificial photosynthesis.
