Carbon dioxide from the atmosphere can dissolve in oceans, lakes, and ponds, forming bicarbonate ions and other compounds that change water chemistry, with possible harmful…
Salk scientists quantify process to permanently store plant-captured CO2 as SiC, a valuable material for electronics. Plants are unparalleled in their ability to capture CO2…
Scientists reaffirm 2019 climate emergency declaration and again call for transformative change based on updated trends. In 2019, a coalition of more than 11,000 scientists…
New study shows that geological storage of low-purity carbon dioxide mixed with oxygen and nitrogen from direct air capture is an environmentally friendly and economically…
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 advances 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…
