Japan and the United States have signed a memorandum of understanding, such as dispatching experts to each other on a technology called "carbon recycling" that captures carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and utilizes it for fuels and chemicals, and has established a policy to accelerate research and development. I did.
As the momentum for decarbonization increases, we would like to pave the way for industrialization and lead the world in this field.
Regarding "carbon recycling," research and development is underway in various fields such as biofuels made from algae that absorb carbon dioxide, but high production costs are an issue.
Under these circumstances, Japan and the United States signed a memorandum of understanding on carbon recycling and decided to accelerate research and development.
The memorandum positions carbon recycling as "one of the most effective means of achieving both virtually zero carbon dioxide emissions and promoting economic growth."
To that end, we include ▽ bridging companies in both countries that are advancing cutting-edge development and ▽ dispatching experts to each other.
In addition, we will provide samples of each other's products and share know-how on manufacturing methods.
As the momentum for decarbonization increases, Japan and the United States hope to pave the way for industrialization through these efforts and lead the world in this field.
The United States and Japan will exchange these memorandums at an international conference tonight.
