Søren Lyng Ebbehøj is a master of science in sustainable energy, specialized in hydrogen and fuel cells from the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). He graduated in 2011 and is currently pursuing his PhD studies at the Department of Energy Conversion and Storage, DTU. The subject is integration of technologies for capture and electrochemical conversion of CO2 from the atmosphere for production of synthetic fuels.
In the spring 2013, Søren visited the Lenfest Center for Sustainable Energy, Columbia University for a research stay, focusing on desorption kinetics and the purity of the product stream from the CO2 air capture technology being investigated there. Currently, Søren is working on modelling the full system from capture of CO2 to the finished hydrocarbon product such as methane, methanol or dimethyl ether.
