A lot of people hate the idea of carbon capture, but I believe that it must be part of our climate solution. The technical hurdles it must face before it can make a difference are high. My first ...

Current methods of capturing and releasing carbon are expensive and so energy-intensive they often require, counterproductively, the use of fossil fuels. Taking inspiration from plants, Cornell ...

University of Michigan researchers have helped develop a method to take carbon dioxide, an industrial waste product that pollutes the atmosphere and turn it into something useful: precursors to make ...

(CN) — Call it killing two environmental birds with one stone: Researchers in Denmark say they have developed a method to convert plastic garbage into materials that can be used for carbon capture, ...

He added that this approach could be more effective than other methods of carbon capture because it would essentially permanently store the carbon. "It's going to be stored on a time scale of ...

Solid materials for carbon capture can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but many existing systems remain energy-intensive and costly, because releasing captured carbon dioxide (CO2) typically ...

Many direct air capture systems rely on heat and oxygen-sensitive materials, which can make them energy-intensive, less efficient, and less durable in real-world air conditions. Researchers devised an ...

Scientists have created a new kind of carbon material that could make carbon capture much cheaper and more efficient. By carefully controlling how nitrogen atoms are arranged, they found certain ...

Scientists are exploring a new model for carbon capture in low-oxygen aquatic environments, such as fisheries, that will help address rising global temperatures and could potentially be cost-effective ...

In a study published in Nature Chemical Engineering, researchers at EPFL developed a scalable method for producing porous graphene membranes that efficiently separate carbon dioxide. A graphene ...

As the world grapples with the urgent need to limit global warming to less than +2.0°C, carbon dioxide removal technologies have moved from the margins to the mainstream of climate strategy. According ...
