Chemists at the University of Copenhagen have developed a method to convert plastic waste into a climate solution for efficient and sustainable CO 2 capture. This is killing two birds with one stone ...

It’s clear that we can no longer avoid the impacts of climate change — we’re already experiencing the economic, societal, and ecosystem impacts of extreme weather events, rising temperatures, and ...

Researchers at the Institute of Advanced Materials (INAM) and the Department of Physical Chemistry at the Universitat Jaume I ...

Capturing carbon dioxide (CO 2) from industrial emissions is crucial in the fight against climate change. But current methods, like chemical absorption, are expensive and energy-intensive. Scientists ...

MIT researchers have developed a new electrochemical approach that could make carbon dioxide capture more energy-efficient and scalable, offering an alternative to conventional amine-based systems ...

A team of researchers has announced a breakthrough in carbon dioxide (CO2) capture technology, unveiling a novel biochar material synthesized from corn straw using a microwave-assisted, two-step ...

The latest short science news items from C&EN. The new devices run at ambient temperatures and pressures, making them smaller and cheaper than the reactors used to heat amines for CO 2 release.

“The beauty of this method is that we solve a problem without creating a new one. By turning waste into a raw material that can actively reduce greenhouse gases, we make an environmental issue part of ...
