Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) Accelerating CO2 Conversion Technology Development and Deployment – Biological, Catalytic, and Mineralization Pathways
The Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) competitively solicits costshared research and development (R&D) proposals to advance the pilot scale testing of carbon conversion technologies with high technology readiness level (TRL ≥ 5) capable of achieving significant carbon mitigation via biological, catalytic, or mineralization pathways. This NOFO also supports testing of carbon conversion product performance and characterization needed for market or consumer adoption. This may include lifecycle analysis (LCA) development for novel carbon conversion technologies and LCA development for pilot facilities using these technologies.
The Carbon Conversion Program supports R&D to advance the conversion of anthropogenic carbon oxides through biological, catalytic, and mineralization pathways. These technologies will benefit producers and consumers by enabling the manufacture of more sustainable products with the long-term potential for lower costs and superior performance.
Topic Area 1: Pilot Scale Biological Conversion
• Topic Area 2: Pilot Scale Catalytic Conversion
• Topic Area 3: Pilot Scale Mineralization
• Topic Area 4: Other Testing and LCA Development Required for Commercialization
