Project CANMILK - Carbon Neutral MILK -
aims to develop a novel technology for methane conversion to CO₂, which is a less harmful compound with 28 times lower potential than methane. Non-thermal plasma will be used to provide an innovative high-tech and low-cost solution to fight against highly diluted methane emissions. CANMILK is an European project, coordinated by Johanna Kihlman at VTT, to which IST, via Instituto de Plasmas e Fusão Nuclear (IPFN) and Centro de Química Estrutural (CQE), joins under the Hop-on facility. Our goal is to understand the role of plasma-activated species and the catalytic activity at the interface of plasma and catalyst.
