Negative Emissions, Positive Economy The long-term goals of the Paris Agreement — keeping global warming well below 2 degrees Celsius and ideally 1.5 C in…
Excessive CO2 emissions are a major cause of climate change, and hence reducing the CO2 levels in the Earth’s atmosphere is key to limit adverse…
Perhaps the best hope for slowing climate change — capturing and storing carbon dioxide emissions underground — has remained elusive due in part to uncertainty…
PNNL-developed solvent breaks barriers, captures carbon for less than industrial counterparts. As part of a marathon research effort to lower the cost of carbon capture,…
New design could speed reaction rates in electrochemical systems for pulling carbon out of power plant emissions. Systems for capturing and converting carbon dioxide from…
A Climate in Crisis Calls for Investment in Direct Air Capture Wartime-level funding for a fleet of CO2 scrubbers could slow warming, but stopping climate…
A fast, green and one-step method for producing porous carbon spheres, which are a vital component for carbon capture technology and for new ways of…
Argonne and SLAC will develop artificial photosynthesis methods to enable direct air capture of CO2 while expanding sources of energy through the conversion of CO2…
The Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory researchers have designed and additively manufactured a first-of-its-kind aluminum device that enhances the capture of carbon dioxide…
Tetraamine-modified MOFs remove 90% of CO2 more efficiently and cheaply. big advance in carbon capture technology could provide an efficient and inexpensive way for natural…
2 Billion Tonnes of CO2 Could be Absorbed From the Atmosphere Each Year by Applying Rock Dust to Farmland Adding crushed rock dust to farmland…
Researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, are advancing gas membrane materials to expand practical technology…
Researchers from Monash University and the CSIRO have set a record for carbon dioxide capture using Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs). The technology resembles a sponge…
It is well known that plants use carbon dioxide obtained from the air in photosynthesis to use as energy and grow bigger. Naoki Makita and…
The capture and storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) underground is one of the key components of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s (IPCC) reports on…
UMass Amherst researchers discover new building blocks of catalyst zeolite nanopores. Zeolites crystals, used among other things for refining petroleum to gasoline and biomass into…
Study finds Earth’s oceans contain just the right amount of iron; adding more may not improve their ability to absorb carbon dioxide. Historically, the oceans…
Researchers at Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) have patented a new concept that could cut trucks’ CO2 emissions by almost 90%. It involves capturing…
