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 ...

Soda Effect: Creating a simple yet effective system for capturing carbon emissions could significantly improve sustainability across technology and other high-polluting industries. A number of ...

Traditional carbon capture methods use sorbents to capture CO 2 at point-of-source locations, and then use heat or generated vacuums to release CO 2 from the sorbent. It comes with a high-energy cost.

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 ...

A University of Toronto team has designed a new method for capturing carbon dioxide directly from the air. The technique called evaporative carbonate crystallization could cut the hefty price tag of ...

Traditional carbon capture systems rely on strong chemicals called amines that bind with carbon dioxide to remove it from exhaust gases. Amines struggle to pull more than 90% of the carbon dioxide out ...

Researchers develop a new "moisture-swing" technique for ambient carbon capture, leveraging the relationship between water and carbon dioxide. This technique potentially lowers energy costs compared ...

Even as the world slowly begins to decarbonize industrial processes, achieving lower concentrations of atmospheric carbon requires technologies that remove existing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere ...
