Researchers have expanded the potential of carbon capture technology that plucks CO2 directly from the air by demonstrating that there are multiple suitable and abundant materials that can facilitate ...
As the planet heads towards a steep rise in average global temperatures, promising catastrophic consequences, climate regulations have been clamping down on global industry. At the centre of this race ...
A nanofiber air filter developed at the University of Chicago could turn existing building ventilation into carbon-capture devices while cutting homeowners’ energy costs. A life-cycle analysis shows ...
While we’ve been debating carbon taxes and emission caps, our oceans have been quietly capturing carbon. It’s like discovering your quiet neighbor has been solving climate change while you were ...
Oregon State University chemists have created a metal-organic framework called BVR-X that keeps capturing carbon dioxide efficiently even in the humid conditions of real industrial flue gas.
Renewable energy sources such as wind and solar are vital tools to help us make cuts to the 36 billion tonnes of greenhouse gases we emit each year. But renewables alone can’t get us to net zero.
After decades of hype and doubt, giant factories that can pull thousands of tons of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere are starting to spin up. Climeworks, a Swiss start-up, opened the biggest ...
WASHINGTON — The carbon capture projects oil companies are pinning their plans on to decarbonize are facing sharp cost increases that threaten to derail the nascent technology. Two years after ...
Atmospheric CO2 continues to increase and, despite considerable worldwide efforts to cut down on carbon waste, is expected to rise more in coming decades. Researchers demonstrated that new, lower-cost ...
