Abstract

We are proposing global carbon dioxide recycling to use solar energy for all people in the whole world. The electricity will be generated by solar cell in the deserts and used for production of hydrogen by seawater electrolysis at the nearby desert coasts. Hydrogen with no existing infrastructures for transportation and combustion will be converted to methane at the desert coasts by the reaction with carbon dioxide captured by energy consumers. Among systems in global carbon dioxide recycling, seawater electrolysis and carbon dioxide methanation have not been performed industrially. We tailored anodes for oxygen evolution without chlorine formation in seawater electrolysis, effective cathodes for hydrogen production and catalysts for methane formation by the reaction of carbon dioxide with hydrogen.
