Newcastle University researchers have invented a revolutionary humidity-driven membrane that uses ambient energy to efficiently remove carbon dioxide (CO₂) from the air. This innovative method addresses the essential difficulty of direct air capture (DAC), which has been named one of the “Seven Chemical Separations to Change the World.” The novel [...]
A novel discovery in concrete manufacture by the University of Northwestern’s team of engineers provides dual benefits, absorbing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the environment while maintaining if not increasing, concrete strength. This new technique, which employs a carbonated water-based solution throughout manufacture, has the potential to greatly impact worldwide efforts to mitigate climate [...]
