carbon capture

Northwestern researchers have demonstrated that multiple inexpensive and abundant materials, including activated carbon, nanostructured graphite and iron and aluminum oxide nanoparticles, can facilitate direct air capture of CO2.

Carbon capture could become practical with these scalable, affordable materials

The team’s new cell features a polymer electrolyte membrane and a porous layer, where carbon dioxide is generated in-situ and reacts at the cathode to form formate ions.

A climate-friendly way to capture carbon dioxide in the air

Researchers uncovered how carbon dioxide can be both captured and converted through a single electrochemical process in which an electrode, like the one pictured covered in bubbles, is used to attract carbon dioxide released from a sorbent and convert it into carbon neutral products.
