Mantra has had this technology for a while to convert co2 to formic acid, they will be returning next week to korea where they have no sites for carbon storage. Hey wake up all the money spent on feasability studies and there is no safe place to store co2 so lets apply this wonderful erc technology.

Who wants to wait 8 to 10 years “for widespread affordable deployment” of a “half baked” solution to a pressing global issue?
Mantra Venture Group (MVTG) has a proprietary carbon recycling technology entitled Electroreduction of Carbon Dioxide Technology (ERC). ERC converts CO2 into valuable chemicals such as formic acid, formate salts, oxalic acid and methanol and the company is aggresively pursuing agreements with industrial giants to commercialize this technology NOW… not 8 years from now!
