Carbon capture is essential to reduce the impact of human carbon dioxide emissions on our climate. Researchers have developed a method to confirm whether carbon in concrete originates from the raw ...

A proof-of-concept system developed in the lab of Professor Ted Sargent uses manganese oxide and electricity to pull CO₂ efficiently from real-world air conditions.

Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) and carbon capture and storage (CCS) are two distinct options to help achieve climate goals by reducing atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations. Carbon Dioxide Removal ...

Scientists have developed a fast and energy efficient way to produce advanced carbon materials capable of capturing carbon dioxide, a major greenhouse ...

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 ...

Plants capture carbon dioxide naturally, using sunlight to grow and flourish. Scientists have now found inspiration from nature to develop a groundbreaking system that harnesses sunlight for capturing ...

A new microwave-assisted method creates nitrogen-doped ultramicroporous carbon from coal in minutes, dramatically cutting energy use while achieving high CO2 capture performance.

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 ...

Future Markets, Inc. presents "The Global Activated Carbon Market 2026-2036," offering an in-depth strategic outlook on this essential filtration material. Key growth drivers include global ...

Making industrial chemicals like ethylene glycol — a key component in polymer production and familiar to many as antifreeze — consumes large amounts of energy and releases significant carbon dioxide ...

Carbon emissions from burning fossil fuels contains very little carbon-14 (14 C) because it has decayed so much over time. This makes carbon-14 very useful for tracing carbon emissions from natural ...
