Scientists develop cheap and effective way to trap carbon in common rocks
Reducing carbon dioxide (COâ‚‚) in the atmosphere is critical to slowing global warming. While direct air capture (DAC) technology has gained attention, it remains expensive and energy-intensive, requiring up to 2.
Scientists Discover Low-Cost Way To Trap Carbon Using Common Rocks
Stanford researchers developed a scalable method to permanently remove CO2 from the atmosphere using heat-activated minerals. Their kiln-based process transforms silicates into materials that spontaneously trap carbon.
New process gets common rocks to trap carbon rapidly, cheaply
Scientists have discovered how to turn common minerals into materials that spontaneously remove and store carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. In the lab, the materials pull CO2 from the air thousands of times faster than occurs with natural rock weathering.
Scientists find a cheap and fast way to trap carbon in rocks
Stanford University scientists have found a practical and affordable way to remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air and store it permanently. This could be a major step in the fight against climate change.
Common Rocks And A Cement-Making Technique Could Transform How We Capture Carbon Dioxide
Chemists at Stanford University have developed a low-cost way to remove carbon dioxide (CO) from the atmosphere using an unlikely source: rocks. The process involves heating common minerals, so they transform into materials that spontaneously pull carbon from the atmosphere and permanently contain it.
