COVER: David C. Grills ofBrookhaven National Lab peers at a combination supercritical CO2reactor/spectroscopic cell used to studyphotocatalytic reduction ofC02 to CO. A long-range goal of the research is to determine chemical pathways that ultimately could be useful for converting large amounts ofC02 to methanol or other fuel.
