Goals for this 1st Annual Methane Pyrolysis Review Meeting
‣ Update on progress made by performers since the Kick-off
‣ Clearly benchmark methane pyrolysis against incumbent and emerging technologies
‣ Identify key challenges that need to be addressed within the cohort and beyond
‣ Laying the foundation for commercialization of successful technologies by strengthening connections between scientists, engineers, business, investors and government
