In the first period, efforts have focused on the further development of the WaterProof technology. For the electrochemical conversion of CO2, progress has been made on the design of the larger electrochemical cell as well as the upscaling of the manufacturing of the electrode. The composition of the CO2 from both demo sites has been measured and the effect of these impurities on the process has been investigated. The different unit operations of the process have been identified and defined and methods and plans have been developed for upscaling of these sections and preliminary designs of the demo plant have been created. Furthermore, to increase the circularity of the project, formic acid has been used to synthesize ADES, that can be used for the recovery of metals from incinerator ashes and various catalysts for production of H2O2 on the anode have been investigated. Together with the end users, quality requirements for the final product have been defined.
