"A solution of carbon dioxide in an aqueous solvent having electrolyte dissolved therein is electrolyzed utilizing a molybdenum cathode. Faradaic efficiency is generally quite high and without detectable corrosion." "In accordance with the present invention the above reaction is carried out utilizing a molybdenum cathode. A molybdenum cathode can reduce carbon dioxide to methanol selectively and with up to 80 to 100% faradaic efficiency. Such reductions can occur, for example, at -0.7 V vs. SCE at pH 4.2, only 160 mV negative of the standard potential corrected for pH."
Am I reading this correctly? We can make fuel from greenhouse gas? Terry
