Brazil's national chemical company Braskem announced on Monday a research partnership with the University of Illinois at Chicago to develop a method for producing ethylene from carbon dioxide (CO2) captured from industrial plant flue gas

The resulting ethylene will be used to make polyethylene (PE), the world's most widely used plastic and one of Brazil's main products

The university's research team will rely on its experience in electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide, which will be combined with a patent-pending technology to capture carbon dioxide from flue gas

The International Energy Agency (IEA) estimates that the global chemical industry will emit more than 1.
5 billion tons of carbon dioxide by 2020
